OH! and excitement over the new OC. Cause, I want a new tag.
Sadly, though, I have a meeting at a hotel by the airport until 8:00 so I'll be watching it on Tivo delay.
ita, I'm sitting here randomly thinking that all of the Buffista Routines for getting to the car have made me realize that maybe I should take Krav if for no other reason than I could (possibly) protect myself.
Other than that, hi shrift, glad you finally joined us. How are you feeling today?
Incredibly overworked like whoa.
I have issues with people using "infer" when they mean "imply", but the word whose overuse probably irritates me more than any other is "energy".
At the top of the list for me, is "hopefully" but comprised is right there too.
I have a long and impassioned rant on the subject of hopefully, as well as on the use of "gift" as a verb and "notorious" for someone other than Al Capone and his ilk. Then there's a personal irritation, problematic, which does not mean full of problems, no matter how it sounds.
I misuse words all the time. I have almost stopped caring. word hell awaits me.
people do not want to come to my events. I don't take this personally as the pool of people I am inviting have been basically neglected for years, but it makes having events very hard. If I can't get people to attend a FREE cocktail how will we ever get people to a $200/person dinner?

Hee. Ginger is me. I'm annoyed by the verbifying of nouns in general, except when we do it. Also, momentarily. "The doors will be closing momentarily." Holy shit! Where should I stand so I don't fall out when they open again?
This conversation is making me nauseous.
t runs away
ugh. msbelle, I feel your pain.
Ginger, what does problematic mean?
See. We need either a Buffista Usage Guide. Or at least a Groundhog Day topic where we can rehash ad infinitum (or at least to 10,000 posts) these topics.
I love when people write the sample bad sentences and I see nothing wrong with them.
