From: Lynn Martin
I regret to report that do to an extremely full calendar these past two weeks (my car broke down, I?ve been trying to maintain my tan, and I have had to prepare for an outrageous Super Bowl party- you?re invited!) , I will not be handing in assignment *insert on time. I am sure that you appreciate the pressure I have been under and, since you have nothing to do but sit in your office anyway, I feel certain that you will accept my assignment whenever I get around to handing it in. If there is any problem, please leave a message on my answering machine.
Ciao,
Lynn
