I am in a meeting discussing the futures market if you’re really interested. For the record - you stood beside me knowing what I was going to do.
You didn’t at any time ask me to stop – you didn’t use either safe word. You are an adult – you have choices.
Quite frankly, I’m looking forward to the next time my palm is ringing with pain. You’re obviously not listening to the right part of your body.
Alaska is very cold and no place to run. I would find you. I can track your cell phone – remember?
Go to work.
