I know that what we’re doing here is important. I know that what we’re working on is going to make a difference to the company. To your career. To my career - maybe. Our careers. Maybe. Probably. Yes.

I realise what we are doing has a huge impact. And when I say huge I mean, to you. Your life. Well part of it. Well to your work. Well some of your work. Not all of your work, granted. But a significant portion. Really. Yes. Probably

I know that what we’re working on is really, very, very, good. Good for business, good for me, good for you. Commerce. Commerce is the word that should be used in this instance I believe. Maybe. Probably. Yes. Definitely.

Or maybe it’s economics?

Anyway. I know it matters. And I take it very seriously because I know it matters.

Soooo. Anyway. The thing is. I must go.
You’re not gonna believe me when I tell you this but I really have to. Something’s come up. Something – well – something BIG.

The truth of the matter is that I know that you take your career, your work, who you are, how you appear iand all that, very very seriously. But the truth of the matter is that - well, the truth of the matter is that - You’re not gonna believe me when I tell you this but - My brother just had a baby. Yes. A baby.

A baby. A real, live, pink, wet, hungry, little baby.

This is real. I just got a text message telling me that he has had a baby. So, you know I love you, you know I believe in what you’re doing and who you are and all the important things. Commerce. Economics. All this. But I gotta go. I just gotta.

The beautiful little wet squirming new life calls and I gotta go. Now. Right now .

I’m an Aunty.
