I've had many friendships with bartenders and some with waiters and waitresses at my regular spots. Baristas too. Once you start bringing your servers mixed tapes, it starts the ball rolling.

Plus, weatherbug sends severe weather alerts for things like yellow child-alert warnings.
Which I find annoying.

Okay, so, skimmy, I realize, but -- anybody else get very far into this discussion thinking it was a conversation about one's close personal relationship with one's tower of internet data storage and processing capacity?
Just me then.
Not just you. Points back upthread.

Okay, I was reading the bon bon story and I still thought "network" when "server" was mentioned downthread from the original story.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yay mac!
You people are crazy, thinking about your relationship with your computer server. IJS.
My department is 12 people in theory, ten in NYC, two in CA. We have some open positions. But it still seems crazy that there are just two of us here today!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
thinking about your relationship with your computer server.
No kidding. I have a crush on my photo iPod, it's true, but a server? They're so boring and you'd never get to go anywhere together.
No one's accepted my 9:30 meeting invite. I itch to cancel it, but I'll wait until 9:30 and see how flaky they were being. I need to run through all my other meeting invites and see if I have responses.

Oh, that's good. Do you know what school, or is that further down the line, depending on other stuff?
