Ah.
Also, sorry about the situation. I know how much it sucks.
Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'm mostly 'meh' about it. I miss what our friendship used to be, and I'm happy to hear she's doing well, but I don't have any real urge to see if the friendship can be re-built.
I'm distracting myself from all of this by looking at Nightmare Before Christmas collectibles on eBay, sorted by most expensive first. I SO should not be tempting myself like that.
Oh! And Pete just called me to tell me that my order from Zappos (which I made around 3-ish yesterday afternoon) just turned up on the doorstep. New shoes for me at home!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Which shoes did you order?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Yay shoes! Also, totally curious as to which ones you went for.
I broke down and ordered the big tall boots, which apparently are arriving tomorrow, because Zappos upgraded me to 2nd day shipping at no charge. I think I'm in love.

I ordered the black with stripey heels ones, which are now only shown in green because I got the very last pair in black.

Yay shoes! Last pair? Way to sieze the shoes, Jilli!
I'm glad someone is getting those boots, JZ. Tres cool.

Oh, my. I was idly chatting with some friends via email, hitting Reply ALL, and someone's sister's friend's cousin's dogs babysitter or something was on the list. I was talking about teaching, and being excited about being able to maybe buy new clothes this fall for the first time in years. I made a crack about keeping my slutty clothes and my teacher clothes separate, but how with some teachers, MY modest stuff is their slutgear.
So this....person...emails me and says that anyone who even HAD something called slutgear shouldn't be a teacher, and she is of a mind to call my school and report me for moral turpitude.
WHAT THE FUCK!
I am staring at this email in another screen and furiously emailing the other girls, trying to find out who she is.
What should I say to her? That's not my first, second, third or fourth response?

DAG! I'd say, "I'm sorry I don't think we've met so I'm not familiar with your sense of humor but I assume you're joking, right?"

EAT IT!!!!
Okay, seriously -- I'd find out who the Uptight!Random!Girl knows (i.e., how did she get on the e-mail list?), and talk to THAT person.
And also, WTF?!?

Bummer, Erin. The danger of Reply-All, alas.
What's your goal in responding to her?
