Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG! you are on AIM at work?

I am, but now I'm so terrified if I sign on at home that my boss with IM me at midnight instead of just emailing like he does now. At least emails I don't have to reply to until I'm at work.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Jesse, can you set up a new ID and give that to your boss? One you only use at work?

Oh, huh. I could have done. I guess I still could, but I'm not all that worried. It's not like I'm ever on AIM anyway.

Way back before I could access work email from home, I wouldn't give out my home email or phone. I'm big on leaving the job at the job. Now I tell people I don't check email (I don't) frequently, if at all. Of course, I also use the answering machine to screen calls.

I like being unreachable. Or rather, controlling who I communicate with. My whims, people, MINE.

but I kept smiling, so I think they mistook my jabs as humor. It's a mistake people make.

Ah, but was it fun and not just annoying?

I'm sleepy. I think I might be reacting to the smell of something my officemate ate. It's coming awfully close to my reaction to raw onions. Annoying.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

it was only fun in that I had answers for everything, no one yelled at me, and I was a smartass 3-4 times.

That sounds pretty close to my definition of fun -- toss in a bit of shirtless hottie men and unarmed combat, and it's perfect.

It's rational of me to not want to embark on meeting #3 today, right? Especially with the amount of prep I'll need to do for #4.

Well sure. You would say that.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

She did clarify that it's Friday. You, Alibelle, never mentioned a date at all, so she has one up on you.

I so DID mention a date. I am somewhat incapable of mentioning my graduation without also mentioning Friday the thirteenth along with it. I distinctly remember saying it to you. If you weren't hanging off my every word, then that's your loss, isn't it?

Not if I end up going anyway, no.

Actually, not even if I don't go.
