MERRY CHRISTMAS, SARAH. THIS IS FOR YOU.

HAVE WE MET?

WE ATTENDED THE SAME NETWORK DESIGN MEETING LAST APRIL.

I OVERHEARD YOU TELLING SOMEONE IN THE HALLWAY THAT YOU LIKE A SPECIFIC BRAND OF MAKEUP.

SO I BOUGHT A BOX OF IT AND KEPT IT IN THE CLOSET FOR MONTHS.

I CAME TO WORK EARLY TODAY AND HID BEHIND THE SCULPTURE IN THE LOBBY UNTIL I SAW YOU HEADING TO THE ELEVATOR.

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU COULD GIFT WRAP CREEPINESS.

SORRY. JUST ACT LIKE I'M NOT HERE.
