Missed connection – Saturday lunch at Le Diplomate


photo by Clif Burns

“Dear PoPville,

Enjoyed an impromptu lunch at the Le Dip bar on Saturday; chicken club with fries.

Struck up a conversation with two guys from Alabama. One lives in Dupont and we talked about his love for mezcal espresso martinis and a good Barry’s workout.

We both ordered aioli,

but he got his first. In a gesture of southern chivalry and consideration of my fries going cold, he gave me his aioli…

I left before mustering the courage, but I went back in to give him a matchbox with my name, number written on it. The connection was missed.

Looking to share my next order of fries and aioli with him.”

PoPville is not affiliated with either party, please proceed with any potential connection at your own risk using caution as you would any online encounter. For those curious about past missed connections, many have been made and when possible I’ll try to update when/if more are made.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
