Talkabout...

KfW2 called. She was out walking her dog. We got into the small talk, but she quickly asked the question

"Was there any reason you wanted to go out in November?"

"Well, yeah, I've not seen you in ages and I know you're super-busy in October, so I thought maybe try and nail something down for November."

"Mmmm." She thought out loud about her plans for November. I think she had assumed that there was something I specifically wanted to chat about, that there was something wrong and part of the reason for calling was checking in on me.

"We could maybe do the last weekend in November. I'd have to wait and see though about this other thing [that she had explained to me]."

The conversation continued. We chatted for about 45 minutes. As usual, it was great hearing from her, but I'd still love to see her in person.
