if i'm not back in the office by 5, call a search party
status check - puzzled
background ambiance - police scanner

someone called me this afternoon, asking if i could meet with him to talk about someone who briefly attended college with me and worked with me on "midsummer" - apparently it's for a reference/character check/something along those lines. not familiar with the area and whatnot, but wanted to meet with me in person to discuss this person.

it sounded random, but i figured i'd go with it - sounds legit, i guess - but i figured i'd be smart about this, just in case. paranoia pays off every once in awhile, maybe. if i'm not back at my desk by 5, be worried. i'm going to starbuck's on church street, wearing a black peacoat, maroon turtleneck, kakhis and black boots. i'm meeting someone 6'2 with a black coat and tan pants. i'm sure it'll be fine, but whatever - i'd rather be safe than sorry and it was a really suprisingly random call to receive.

i'll post again when i get back.
