Oh, jeeze! Remember that time you came to my office because you wanted to surprise me with cake for my birthday? Only you brought ice cream cake because you forgot I was lactose intolerant, so everyone got to eat cake on my birthday except me. But I forgave you because it's the thought that counts, isn't it. And besides, the cake was mocha-flavored, and I hate mocha, so I probably wouldn't have eaten any anyway. I guess that's why you just send me cards for my birthday now....

Well, you remember that secretary you had? See, I asked her, and she recommended it. I think she had it in for you, and it was a good thing you fired her. She also stole office supplies.

::gasp!::
Thieving bitch! I never liked her!
She was lazy, too. And kept forgetting to give me messages. Remember when you came to see me for lunch and she never told me you were waiting in the lobby, and I ended up going to that meeting and then lunch with my coworkers? I thought you'd never forgive me for making you wait so long and then go hungry. It was all her fault anyway! I'm glad I fired her. That reminds me, we do have a lunch date next Tuesday, don't we? My new secretary has it penciled in on my calendar.

You said you wanted to see Venice one last time before the winter tide came in and city vanished under the waves, so I went ahead and called Niccolo at the Gritti and booked the Cipriani's launch for sunset - it was too cold for Bellinis, but we drank prosecco and caught the last boat back, and on Sunday, when the waters rose, we went home, bearing lace and glass and the taste of the city in our bones.

I will never forget that day. It was very hard to get on the train after that, and head north.

Ah, but north meant Bassano, and that grappa you enjoyed so much, so we went...
