Serenade – 25th September 1998

Email with TLJ:

T: well, it’s a rainy day, so i don’t feel like doing much.

S: Hang on – and if it’s a sunny day?!!

T: wrote the sdd group an email – just waiting for all the abusive responses……

S: You’ll only get abusive responses if yr email was abusive (or your team members are pricks)

T: sue is going to the MSO ball tonight with DI!!!!!! so i’ve got nothing to do –
well, besides seeing you…….

S: Well, talk about feeling second rate! Can’t you go to this thing too – if you want to?

T: it’s a pity you can’t lie about your salary like Sandie does. (i think she said she was earning 80,000 when she was really earning 50,000! dad sent in my Taiwan application form (i think) today.

S: I hope it gets lost in the mail and you can come stay at my place for a month!

T: and i’ve got some compaq gossip. remind me to tell you my unity party story. well, i’ll tell you now. rob (jackie’s boy – friend, not son) knows jason lee (the head guy in the unity party) from law school. and the unity party is having its launch tonight, so mum thought sandie should go to the launch ($50 a head) to meet “career people” – well, they’re all lawyers just about. but sandie has opted for a night out with her snowboarder/compaq friends and jackie – and they’re going to be taking lots of illicit drugs i imagine (sandie’s looking forward to getting her hands on “ekkies” and a
man i suspect). she’s been in lots of trouble with all her compaq workmates about gossiping – it’s so funny, pathetic really.

S: Because she gossips or is she the one they are all gossipping about.? She’d better be careful – people are cruel.

T: anyway, have a great day. see you tonight?

S: You better!

T: i know you might be busy with the party though, and you’ll have to get an early night.

S: Won’t be busy with it tonight but will need to get to bed probably before 3am

T: actually, so do i since i have a violin lesson tomorrow.

S: Will you serenade me one day?
