Dear People,
Sending me the same email that you sent at 3 am will not make me answer any faster. Especially when I cannot answer right now because the server is fucked.
Hatefully,
Yours
Anyone want to brave IKEA with me this weekend?
I can beat up demons until the cows come home, and then I can beat up the cows.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
It seems like it should be a given, to me. (Unless there are hordes of daters out there who just love mind games, and go online looking to be toyed with.)

O'Malley's going to be talking about...Palestinian elections? You'll have to tell me if that is just a weird bit of random text or not.

Megan, so sorry to hear about what your family is facing.
Apparently my mom's birthday coincided with that of everyone else eating out at Colton's last night. There were no less than 8 tables that got serenaded with banging pots and pans while we were there. We, of course, avoided notifying the staff about it being Mom's birthday so she and I wouldn't have to mar the occasion by causing a bloodbath.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Weird bit of random text. Ooops! Unless the discussion is about to take a dramatic turn.

I think "no mind games" means the high school-ish courting rituals, like not returning calls for three days because then they'll know you LIKE them, and all that. Or causally mentioning other women's names in conversation, to create the impression that there's competition. It's hard to list all the behaviors, which is why it gets turned into "mind games." The problem, I think, is that most people (men and women) who do that sort of thing do it out of insecurity, not malevolence, so it'd never occur to them that "no mind games" applies to them.
Plus, it's easy to take it as, "You must be totally honest about your feelings, or lack of feelings, from the first second, and if you do anything that annoys me, I will accuse you of playing mind games." Which might be off-putting.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
IKEA!!!
Late to work today, but luckily what I thought was an 8:30 call was a 9:30, so I didn't miss it.
I need some decaf. I would also like a nap, but my boss says no.

Oh, I'd be going to Whitemarsh. No way in hell could I get to the one at Greenbelt(?) without getting killed by the traffic. But I think I'll be putting it off to some less busy weekend.
