		harshreality on March 13, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: We'll Be Circling Back The subject is implied and purposely left out to avoid emphasis. It's not an ultra-formal construction, but it would be a stretch to call it incorrect grammar. You know who you'd be having coffee with. The sender of the email. :)

It will always be a stretch, because there is no such thing as proper grammar.
