helenebee: hey hun

pambeesly: hey mom

helenebee: so, how'd it go?

pambeesly: what?

helenebee: your date, silly

pambeesly: oh yeah

pambeesly: um

helenebee: wow, that good huh?

pambeesly: it probably didn't help that the cameras AND Kelly were there

pambeesly: but definitely no spark

pambeesly: not even anything close to resembling a spark

helenebee: sounds awkward

pambeesly: yeah, but I guess it was good experience

helenebee: definitely, if I remember correctly, you were still in braces on your last "first date"

pambeesly: thanks for the reminder

helenebee: just teasing you, dear

pambeesly: I know :-)

pambeesly: so Michael went to Philly today to a paper convention

pambeesly: and I guess Jim was there

helenebee: really

pambeesly: yeah, I mean, of course, he's the assistant manager in Stamford

pambeesly: I forget we still work for the same company sometimes

helenebee: so, did you hear how he's doing or anything?

pambeesly: I'll probably get a full report from Michael on every little thing he did on Monday

pambeesly: maybe news about Jim will be scattered in there

helenebee: maybe you should send him an email sometime

helenebee: I'm sure he'd like to hear from you

pambeesly: yeah, maybe, I don't know

helenebee: if you want to, of course

pambeesly: yeah

pambeesly: so I think I'm gonna cook some dinner, I didn't eat much on my date tonight.

helenebee: okay, I love you honey

helenebee: and I think you were pretty brave, going on that blind date set up by Kelly of all people

pambeesly: thanks mom

helenebee: night

pambeesly: night
