That's absurd... :lol: but listen.
As I can imagine the situation according to this statement, I see the following picture.
Now you see this person every day and you sure you will be seeing her/him yet for a long time. And it must pass a long time till you won't be seeing her/him. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Got it? Don't worry - I also have a smooth comprehension of what i've said. :lol:
Context would help. 8)Quote:

Pat: See you Friday.
