As part of The Square antics, I went to meet The Third Quarter at work on Friday night, for red wine drinking and general festivities before we went and saw several local acts play.

The Third Quarter and The Fourth Quarter work together, and so I quite happily hung out at The Fourth Quarter’s desk to drink my wine and gossip merrily. The Fourth Quarter is an application designer, complete with drawings and mock ups of app’s, along with their wireframe equivalents. Which just so happened to be sprawled all across his desk.

Well. It seemed a great idea at the time to add a couple features to the wireframe and mock’s. Things like ‘features: Run App. Save App. Close App. Twist and Shout’. I added boxes with suggestions like ‘Drink Wine and Stress Less’. I drew pictures with love hearts, and dancing guys and made this application rockin!

Unfortunately The Third Quarter saw my mischief, and thought that perhaps The Fourth Quarter may not appreciate my help with his app designing. She explained that he’d been working so very hard, and the whole project was quite stressful. So I ceased and forgot about the entire encounter until this morning, when I received several txt’s from a distressed Fourth Quarter:

The Fourth Quarter: Gah!! This means war!
Me: War? Oh no! Didn’t you see the box that said ‘Drink more wine and stress less’?? Please don’t be grumpy with me!

After a long pause, I received this txt message:
The Fourth Quarter: Fine, I won’t be angry if you tell me what the smiley face button next to the minimize button does ;)

Ah, Square <3. It makes my day :)
