phone call

Jett was over for dinner, scanning, and powerpoint last night — in preparation for his guest lecture at IAIA next week — when Serena called his cell.

"Hello... yeah, we're eating now."

"Join us!"

"Monica says you can come over if you want... uh-huh... Serena says she already had dinner... okay, I will... yes, I promise... I'd like to finish eating... no, I won't tell her that... you can tell her yourself."

[hands me phone]

"Hey Serena."

"Jett promised he'd call me back after you guys finish dinner, but if he forgets, you have to bite him for me."

"Uh, can I delegate that to Bram?"
