it's an easy enough way to keep track of things I mightn't say in the weekly call with the 'rents or the ping pong email with the sis
On the USA trip, the friends who were following b.org knew everything they ever wanted to know about what I'm doing, with whom, and how I looked while doing that when people posted pictures. It was so very convenient. I couldn't always e-mail more than "I'm OK" for some of the time, so they loved the details. My parents got the more detailed phone calls.
My brother writes under a nick name on some Israeli site (poems and short stories, as well as a forum for the young writers). I identified him by accident and felt horrible about it until I got to tell him (he's on mandatory duty, that was the time before he had a cell phone, I had no way to reach him for at least a couple of weeks, and I couldn't tell my parents "um, when he calls, could you please deliver this message for him" without messing things up even worse).
It turned out, he didn't care at all that I know and that I read there. So now I occasionally do, just because he's so much fun to read.
so they loved the details.
Except when they thought ita and I broke you at Krav.

Oh, goodness, yes!
I gave the link to b.org to a total of 3 friends. Right after ita's joking post, I got frightened e-mails from all 3. And they were the ones who were the least freaking-out about the trip, from the beginning. Of course, nobody believed that I either went to a krav lesson or had such a great time during it, but the contradiction never bothered them.
I still feel guilty about that one, at least a little.
Twas funny though.
eta: Alibelle, I hope you will keep posting more, now that you have the internets at home. Earlier would be better though.
Night all!
Night, Perkins!
Also, now that it's already today for b.org, as well, I can post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is PMM's birthday. Happy birthday, Plei! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
Hippo birdies, PMM!
I ended up re-watching the Superman history documentary on A&E last night. Even though it skipped over virtually all of the rare controversial bits -- like Siegel and Schuster's fight for royalties on the franchise they created -- it was impressively comprehensive.
Happy Birthday, Plei!!!!!
Happy birthday, Plei!!
Ouch, Dana! Here's hoping it's relatively minor.
So nice, Allyson's mom!
Congrats to Emmett and his team!
Happy birthday Plei!
And, aw for the Allyson mom-pliments.
