I'm feeling badly for being wildly inappropriate here on the board.

I absolutely do not think you were. For what it's worth.

I just don't see the "wildly inappropriate," vw.

What are the kind of things you're forgetting, vw? I'm name impaired and have been forced to write very awkward tests saying things like "When Bob's mother's friend returns, she tells Bob's wife that Bob's daughter has disappeared." I used to create one-page sheets of names and major points to refer to in class discussion.

eta: wildly inappropriate crosspost!

This is probably the next step I need to take. So far it's been a time issue. I have SO much reading for one of the classes, the just getting through it has been enough of a challenge. I haven't had the time to do much more than that. But, clearly I'm going to have to make the time.

And as for what I'm forgetting...it's pretty much everything I read...without some kind of jog it pretty much goes out the window. My shrink says my working memory is not in working order, which kind of makes me laugh. I just need to learn to work around it.

And Burrell, I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable. That was never my intention.

1 hour more at work.

33.5 hours until first pitch of A's Spring Training.

Sorry for being so self-absorbed as to not comment on the school discussion.

Yay Lexine!

I want to start a countdown to March 18th. Is it too early for that?

I don't think that warrants an apology, although it is very considerate. The way I view this board and each thread is if a group of people were in a group. One person might be talking to a few people while another person might be talking to a few different people. Even though every one is in the same larger group it is unnecessary for people from the first group to apologize to people in the second group for not participating.

(Man, I hope that made sense.)

This is how I justify not participating/commenting on every subject that comes up.

I hope you have a great time, Lexine.

And again I say, HELL no! I've already started this countdown on my work calendar.

This. Between work and life, I just can't seem to keep up.

That is why I don't even bother trying to catch up when I fall behind in Natter.

Lee - my daughter has been counting down to her 15th b-day since the New Year (her b-day is 3/27 - on Easter this year)...you can count down to March 18th!
