Something..

Team lunches from the office had always been boring. But surprisingly, she was enjoying this one. The new guy on their team was quite attractive upclose.
"What do you do on weekends?" he'd asked.
"Oh, I laze around at home and catch up on my reading" she'd lied and smiled...
"Wow. Sounds wonderful. I get dragged along on my wife's shopping sprees.."
"Oh .. you're married?"
"Yes.. We met in college.. both big time Jack Nicholson fans.. She was the only girl I knew who'd seen all his movies."
She smiled again and realized she was thinking too many things somewhere in her mind to reply.
Somebody else at the table asked him something.. As he turned to answer, she racked her brain for something to ask him, to get their conversation going again.....

She got off work early that day and headed to the video store."I need all the Jack Nicholson movies you've got" she heard herself say... and smiled somewhere in her mind.
