Susan, heh. The best Word correction I've ever gotten was when it was trying to cope with a paper I'd written on film and the female gaze (the meaning of which I no longer remember), and after puzzling a bit over Sontag, it suggested that possibly I meant Sandhog.
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, and in sad news for linguistic pedants, today I found "free reign" rather than "free rein" in a very well-written and otherwise clean and polished book.

grr, argh.
Had what I thought was a nice night out with the girls. Ate a lovely plate of steakfrites, had a few glasses of wine, a few glasses pf beer. The evening ended badly, with my best friend yelling at me on the streets of Cambridge because I'm married and am buying a house and she's not. I let her vent for a while, hoping she'd come to her senses. I finally, in a break in the action, asked, "are you aware, you're YELLING at me?" she said, "yes, I am." I turned on my heel and walked home.
It was pretty awful. I knew there was no reasoning with her, but I couldn't just stand there any longer and let her berate me.

It was- I mean, I know she is lonely and it's hard for her to deal with both me and her other good friend getting married and thinking about housebuying, but she just went on the attack.
It was very icky.
I walked the entire mile and a half home on the steam of righteous anger. Go me!

ah, well, ran out of righteous anger steam, time for bed. Good night my lovelies!
Oh, and I went to an open house at Boston College! I'm really excited about going to school there.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
whoa ... that's just... odd. I understand lonely and sad, but I'm really not sure how that is your fault.
Thanks for the allergy info
and happy birthday,D. Griswold
DH and his friend are playing guitar in the living room. They've both had some rough weeks and I think they NEED some pure guitar talk. Luckily, she like cats and wine - so there was more than guitars to talk about.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Hee. I did come across a spellchecker once that wanted to change my name to "Wailing Haitians".
