Failure to lunch
6 May
Rhett,
I can’t believe it’s May already. Looks like we’ve missed an entire month of lunches. So much mediocrity unremarked upon… so many sorrowful binges without even a silent witness. It’s making me feel as if an unexamined lunch is not worth eating.
Now that I’ve got a vehicle of my own, I feel less tethered to my desk. I went thrifting yesterday just to get out of the office. It reminded me of the handful of times you joined me in scouring the second hand stores for whatever junk caught my fancy. There wasn’t much yesterday.
I realized that I’d wasted most of my lunch hour without actually eating anything, so I walked across the parking lot from the Salvation Army and got a Turkey Ranch and Swiss sub from Quiznos. I half recall us going to a downtown food court location years ago when you were on the way out at Zoom. I’ve never been a huge fan of toasted subs, but for a snowy Spring afternoon it seemed like just the thing. I ate it in a hurry so I could make a 1 o’clock meeting.
Best,
Brendan
