I had to leave the meeting...
During a meeting, my phone rang, and I quickly noticed it was my AD. Could this finally be the call I was waiting for? With my heart pounding, I snuck out of the meeting to take the call. Yes, it was! Finally incoming. Now I can’t take it off!!!

While I'm happy for the OP, I must agree with this. It looks a bit like a son wearing his dad's pants.

Congratulations regardless!

And who would not leave a meeting for this?
Wonder what excuse you gave in order to escape that meeting

As a fellow with small wrists also, a Daytona will never adorn mine, regardless of how beautiful they are!
