***OUT OF OFFICE ALERT (OOF)***PINKLIGHTSABRE IS OUT OF THE OFFICE FOR THE NEXT 4 HOURS WITH PARTIALLY DELAYED RESPONSE TIME. IF THIS IS URGENT YOU CAN TEXT ME NO PROBLEM. IF YOU’RE NOT SURE IF IT’S URGENT THEN TEXT ME ANYWAY! IF THIS IS ABOUT PROJECT AGAMEMNON, THE BOGEY IS IN THE HARBOR.***
Thank you for your message. Even though you should’ve known I was OOF by the notice on Outlook you still sent me this email. Thanks! Off your list and onto mine, right?! But you knew I’d read it anyway, because none of us are ever really “out of the office” right π I don’t even know why we set these OOFs. I told my therapist I have this thing where I can’t not-read a message you know? I even check my phone when I know there’s nothing new just on the off-chance I might have overlooked something the first time! I joked that maybe I’ve got OCD but then she told me about this woman who kept going back to her house each time she left to make sure she’d unplugged the blow dryer and couldn’t stop going (back again and again), to where she never could actually leave!…and we had to laugh and agree, OK! Maybe I’m not OCD!! π I just try to be super responsive on email and that’s why I’m sorry I’m not here right now and thanks for your message I really mean it. By the time you finish reading this it won’t be long until I’m back! π Have a good day and I’m sorry I missed you, the next time I’ll be better with my aim π

Thank you for making that off-hand “I’m so OCD” comment and then explaining why you aren’t OCD and acknowledging that people with OCD have horribly disrupted lives. Educating. There needs to be far more of this in our society.

Hey youβre welcome! Not a joking matter for sure. I have no idea what that must be like…but yes, Iβve been guilty of dropping the reference without having the real perspective
