Boomer…creeper?

(Scene: Thursday, our girl K is sitting at her desk, working hard on an Excel spreadsheet for tomorrow’s meeting, which got cancelled. Yes, you read that correctly. Anyway, as K sits, typing away, a visitor stops by to chat.)

S: (In true Joey Tribianni fashion) Hey, K. How you doing?

K: Oh…hi… I’m good. Just working away here. Very busy. Busy day.

S: So I saw a picture of you in C’s cube.

K: (Very confused) Oh…?

S: The one of you in an OU jersey. You look reeeal good in it.

K: Oh… Yeah… That was what we did for Halloween here at work.

S: So what were you for Halloween at home?

K: (debating how to answer this without giving him a mental image) Uhm… A panda….but I didn’t really go anywhere…just over to my friend’s house to give some candy to some kids.

S: That right?

K: Um… yes.

S: Halloween used to be such a big thing. I think it’s gone out of style these days.

K: Um, dang trunk or treat.

S: Well, I’ll be going now. I’ll see you later, though.

K: (Holding back a sarcastic and arguably sardonic “Oh goody”) Sure. Bye.

(Unfortunately, more than likely to be continued…end scene)
