This is a delightful story about an accidental meeting over coffee. It shows how being open to new people can lead to good things. Even mix-ups can turn into new friendships. We need more of this to occur often. Thanks, Bryce.

That's the beginning of a Rom-Com, Bryce. Or some sort of innocent-guy-gets-sucked-into-mistaken-identity-espionage thriller. xo

Yes, it really could be. Maybe you know someone who could write the screenplay? ;)

I'm voting for the Rom-Com version first - though the identity-espionage thriller angle could be an exciting one!

Could be a Rom-Com/Spy flick. But this screenwriter is retired. I just saw the f*ckery that is the Oscar noms and, yeah, the divorce from Hollywood is final. LOL. xo

You might appreciate knowing that it happened in Portland. :)

I'm all for the world being a kinder place so maybe if each of us messes up one coffee meeting a year .... ;)

That is such a "Portland" story. LOL...
