The above thread gives the background of the times I tickled a lovely colleague named Mary. At a training class last Friday I saw her for the first time all year – in fact, it was only the second time in 16 months that we’ve faced one another.
I played it cool as Mary and a few of her friends approached the class. I said hello to her but nothing else. If you read the thread I wrote about Mary, you’ll see why I’ve kept my distance. (She looked as lovely as ever, by the way.)
Entering the class, I made sure I stepped away from Mary and her friends, as opposed to trying to take a seat near her. She didn’t follow me, either. We were probably fifteen feet apart as the class started. I glanced at her a few times; she didn’t catch me looking. If she looked at me, I didn’t notice.
But here is why I’m posting: Asking the instructor a question, the person directly in front of me mentioned a “tickler,” in the business sense (sending colleagues a reminder). It took all I had in me not to look at Mary, but I wondered if she gazed in my direction, thinking of all the times I tickled her.
