Seventy

I have multiple post-it pads featuring thanks, high-fives, and complaints. I've been carrying the high-five ones around (usually for co-workers) when I came to the realization that guys might want a high-five post-it with my number.  I was eating dinner with a friend and noticed a guy (at least my age, shaggy salt & pepper hair) reading Go Set a Watchman, which I had read a few weeks earlier. It was obvious that he should be the first recipient of a high-five note with my number, so as he gathered his things to leave I handed him the paper and said I had a high-five for him. He was confused (Note to self: polish the presentation of the note next time), said thanks, and put it with his book.  I have yet to hear from him (not a huge surprise based on my poorly planned delivery - by poorly planned, I clearly mean no plan). Perhaps he got food-poisoning that night and doesn't like Pluto's; maybe he finished the book and realized he doesn't like Harper Lee at all. I'll probably never know. However, we ALL know that he won't be the last to receive a note like this.

  1. Thanks to you, San Francisco is staying the amazing, quirky, spontaneous city it is! BTW, strategic of you to crop out the top part of the picture (where I assume your name and phone number were written?). I like this plan -- high five and "Keep it up!" :) xo ~Margaret
