When he said no, I clarified: "Not *documents*; just the laptop and electronic files." The answer was still no. Further indicia: I asked again for Friday. He said no, because it's still the holiday weekend. I replied, "Actually, it's the busiest retail day. I think it's a day devoted to commerce!" The answer was still no. BTW, our leftovers were better than the original Thanksgiving meal. I give extra special thanks for leftovers.

Further indicia: I asked again for Friday. He said no, because it’s still the holiday weekend. I replied, “Actually, it’s the busiest retail day. I think it’s a day devoted to commerce!” The answer was still no.

BTW, our leftovers were better than the original Thanksgiving meal. I give extra special thanks for leftovers.
