sj, do not understand the patting thing...you'd think people could read my "die if you try it," vibe and yet...
Thanks, erika. 1. I don't get touching a stranger. 2. My name is not "sweetie" or "dear". This one caught me off guard, so she only caught the vibe after.
hi erika!
sj, sounds like you need a proximity alarm. or a taser. or maybe just a cluestick for the clueless.
thank you, Astarte. le duh.
or maybe just a cluestick for the clueless.
I already have two, the crutches. Unfortunately, I had left them in the car.
All part of the service, smonster.
ye gods, i need another week to get this all done. i really wanted to have a rough draft to my betas tonight, and it's looking pretty unlikely unless I stay up really late.

And if you ever wanted to tell somebody you had a failure to communicate, hell, you're dressed for it.ETA: Although I hate being all insecure to meet somebody's eye and it took me forever to learn to make pleasant chat with strangers cause they would say "hey," and I would think "You're not gonna bug me about Jesus right? And let's keep those hands where I can see 'em, cowboy."
Shit. Even in this life I think like a cop.
bt, I hope the two months pass very quickly. Just think how beautiful she'll be when you see her again!
This is true, and she was pretty damn beautiful when I saw her last. Thanks everyone for your well wishes. It's probably for the best anyway. It means she gets to spend time with her family before our wedding, and it's been a while since she's seen them. Marrying me also means she's choosing to stay in Australia, so it's good they have some time together. (Though I still reserve the right to miss her lots.)
Hey there! I bet you're all asleep, or something - heaven knows what time it is over there.
Hah! Guess again, Miss Fay! Im in yr side of the International Date Line, bogarting yr Friday!
Fay...
Hey, babe, sorry I missed you.
