Cynthia Green's Office at Volt

It's occurred to me that this little game has been going on for quite a few years.  A fella with Zynga insinuated my entire life has been a charade.  It also occurs to me in hindsight, that maybe a major part of it is just an observation/memory game if it's not actually all real, which I think most of it is.  One way or the other, though nobody probably cares, this is significant.  Like nearly everything else, I knew something was definitely wrong at the time, but never added it all up.  I just kind of wrote if off as strange and forgot about it after Cynthia's story about Jesus clearing the driveway.  When we dated was late 1996 or early 1997:

Cynthia Green invited me to her office at Volt Technical Services in Manhattan once.  She lead me to a room that was just a few steps from the main entrance and said it was her office.  We didn't pass any other offices on the way.  Instead of a desk, she had a glass-top dining table she "used" as a desk.  The 2 chairs for guests facing it were very ornate, like Victorian style or something, but tall, as was her chair.  The room also had very nice mood lighting and she had some folders and papers and maybe a few other office supplies spread around the table very neatly.  There was no file cabinet or other office furniture.  I knew it was odd and asked kind of sarcastically, "This is your office?"  She played it off like it was no big deal but I knew damn well it was not her office.

So, the upshot is, maybe she didn't really work for Volt or maybe she was working for them on a freelance basis, which is what I suspect, and for whatever reason, they played along with her and let her rearrange that reception/conference room to put on a little show for me.  Either way, it was not really her office.

One more little story about Cynthia I love to tell.  She and I had a good laugh at this.  Then again, she's an actress, and knowing what I know now, it's possible she did it intentionally, but it seemed like a very authentic slip of the tongue:

We had a date planned at the last minute once that was her idea.  I think it was the La Fondu date.  Grunge was still in and I had a flannel tied around my waist so the sleeves where hanging down in front.  I picker her up a few flowers while we were together and was playfully holding them behind my back acting like it was a surprise.  She knew, of course, and played along and said, "Hey, Johnnnn, whatchya got behind your sleeve?"
