OK, I went back and did a little editing to my posts to vague up some of the specifics of the situation, because I felt like I said too much. I still have a bad habit of forgetting just how public this little corner of the internets really is. I'm trying to be a little more intentional about what I do and don't say online, even though it's largely shutting the barn door after the entire herd of horses has escaped to cavort in feral happiness on the prairie.

I praise Jen! Consider this praise, for lo, she is fabulous and awesome and hot, and has great taste in birthdays. :)

I'm in a v. good mood. Mmmm, good evening. Good day, really--only worked half a day, cause I finished early at the site and said "screw it, if I were elsewhere, I'd have to go to the airport and wait for my flight, so I'm going HOME". And watched TV, and napped. And then decided to go to a discussion group thing that I havne't been to in, literally, YEARS. And lo and behold...hot women! Fun women! We went to dinner after the group, and decided to go dancing! Had fabulous fun dancing! Got compliments from unexpected people! Met ANOTHER hot woman! Had to decide if I would be supermean to quit flirting with teh first hot woman because the second one was superhot. (Decided it would be mean, and I am nto mean. But I did promise Superhot woman a dance tomorrow night. We shall see, ladies and gents. I gave hot woman a ride home. Hehe)

So, um. A little stoked. And no one is on IM for me to gush to, so I gush to you, O Bitches!

And no one is on IM for me to gush to

Hey!

I'm sorry P-C. You're a boy. It doesn't quite count the same.

I should so go to sleep. But I dont' WANNA go to sleep! Also, i have no daytime plans, so I have no motivation to go to sleep. And I took a nap this afternoon. WIDE awake, i am!! And, oh, just a tad giddy. WHEE!

Yay for hot women, meara!

Susan, I totally get where you're coming from. I think I would have done the exact same thing in your situation, and been exactly as baffled by the results.

In an hour and forty minutes, I have a date with a cute guy who is going to make me pancakes. I am extremely happy about this.

mmmm, pancakes and cute guy! Sounds like a fun morning, Kate.

and meara with the hot women and fun last night!! I wish someone would send a hot person of either gender to my house. Instead, I have a very nice friend coming over this morning who is going to paint a bedroom for me.

Nonian, that sounds like a friend worth having. How are you and the Minian doing?

Susan, I don't think you did anything wrong - it's not like you pointed out a typo, it was an error that did need not just correcting but also some announcement that there had been an error and a correction. But I think you need to let it go.

Probably true. I think the real problem, protocol aside, is that I stumbled accidentally into something involving past incidents I had no part of.

Abosotively.

Kate, have fun on your date! Mmmmm...pancakes. Instead, I have homemade banana bread and coffee. I'm happy.

I need to order groceries and get our laundry done. This is my fun morning. But first, I need to finish this coffee so I'm actually awake.
