The following conversation near midnight outside of a bar on a really cold street:
"Sweetie, what are the chances that you can get next weekend off of work?"
"Depends on how hard I try for it. Why?"
"Because I'm taking you home."
"Then I'm going home."
And posting up on the sub-list that you need someone to take your hours and seeing a few hours after that you're covered.
I very happily assign the prospect of going home for the first time in several months.
