“Hellrazr and Nemesis is working with a startup for an interim interim CEO. Are you interested? If so, I’m going to be in Seattle Saturday night. Are you free for dinner?â€
Interim interim CEO didn’t seem like a particularly empowered job so my first reaction was that I probably wasn’t interested … but hey, never say never: I was trying to keep an open mind as I was getting my consulting business off the ground. On top of that it had been a few months since we had talked and when I heard her voice I realized that I was really looking forward to seeing her. So even though I did have dinner plans on Saturday night, after D’s out of the blue Friday afternoon phone call I decided to reprioritize.
She was already there when I got to Rover’s, checking email on her phone as she waited. She looked lovely as always, in a black velvet dress that highlighted her red-and-purple hair, and had already ordered champagne for both of us. She seemed happy to see me as well, and as I sat down she proposed a toast:
“To the future!â€
“Indeed — because that’s where we’ll be spending the rest of our lives.â€
