Hiya Brett!  
I’m great!  Yesterday was so beautiful!  I took off work and headed to RI for a beautiful beach and delicious food!  I stood in the sand wishing you could be there to hold my hand and grab my ass.  Heh.  
So wonderful to hear from you and know you’ve been thinking of me.  I almost didn’t get your email… I have a new phone (left T-Mobile and started with Google Fi) and had not signed in to Yahoo yet so it didn’t tell me I had a message.  I was cleaning out my old phone and it told me!  Phew.  I think I’ve fixed it now.  My google voice phone number is not working… so no texting until I figure that out.  Whee. 
In theory I get out of work at 3 pm on summer Fridays, so we may be able to make that work!  Were you thinking this Friday or just some Friday sometime? 
Big hug with groping!

Sassie,
This Friday or Friday sometime,  depends on you.

Good morning Brett! 
Both!  🙂 
I’m off work this week, so tomorrow would be easy for me.  
If you want to be in a hotel again, I found a good deal on a nicer place near Burlington.  Is that okay or too close to work for safety?  It’s at 44 Middlesex Tpk.

Sassie,
That would be fine with me.  I like good deals.  My calendar is clear in the afternoon.

Okay!  The reservation is made!  It’s $112 with tax, but don’t worry about the extra if you have 5 $20s. 🙂 
Do you want to meet there at 3 pm?  Or somewhere earlier for lunch or something? Looks like it’s going to be quite warm outside.  And inside.

RE: Rainy days
Is check-in at 3:00 or could we get in a little earlier?  I think I could get out from work around 1:00.  Maybe we could meet for a late lunch around 1:15 and make the most of our time with wondrous anticipation through a meal that will seem way too long.

Hiya Brett! 
Whooeeee!  I am so excited!  Tingling a bit in fact… this is going to be so fun. 
We might be able to go in a little early.  I’ve found that when I ask they say no, but if I show up they usually do it.  Probably not before about 2 or 2:30 pm… 
When will you have to leave?  I’d like to tell Hubby when I might be home. 
Let’s meet for lunch.  Do you have any favorites?  Tell me where to find you.  I don’t know that much about that area or your preferences.  Should keep it light before our work-out.  🙂

Sassie,
I would want to leave a little earlier than usual, between 5:30 and 6:00.  Coming home too late on a Friday especially before a long weekend might arouse suspicion and I just want to keep that possibility near zero.
I would recommend the Bamboo restaurant(Chinese buffet), but that is not conducive to keeping it light.  Other possibilities nearby include:  The Melting Pot (I’ve never been…is fondue), Flatbread(Chain), Lemon Grass(Thai) or there is a restaurant near the Hotel on the other side of Middlesex Turnpike. That last restaurant keeps going out of business, so I’m not sure what it is now.  You can choose from amongst those. (or even suggest something else)
At any of these, I might meet someone I know but Bamboo is by far the riskiest for that.  You will be an colleague from an old job if that happens.

Hi Brett! 
No worries – I figured you’d need to go earlier.  I want to keep you under the radar too!  
Oh my…  The Bamboo looks wonderful if you won’t be too nervous there.  I can exercise some willpower and not overeat.  Maybe.  It’s certainly close, has easy parking and has good Yelp reviews.  And with a buffet it’s easier to control our timing and not have to deal with a waiter every 5 minutes.   If it’s too scary, Flatbread looks good too.  I’ve been to the one in Somerville.  Tasty pizza!  
 Let’s plan to meet at the Bamboo about 1:15 pm in the parking lot.  If you want to go on to Flatbread from there, that’s fine.  
I hope this gives you interesting things to think about for the next 24 hours.

RE: Rainy days
I love the Bamboo and the extra level of nervousness will add to the edge.  I much prefer Bamboo over Flatbread.  Lots to think about.  
See you soon.
