This is just too sucky of a day for bitches. I am clearly overwhelmed with good ~ma today, as I really needed an extra day off, and actually got a snow day! Whoot! I'm happy to have this for myself, but even happier to realize that this means that I have plenty of ~ma to share! So, lots of ~ma to all who need it, especially Sean and S; Teppy and your father; and Matilda (for an especially short and non-bothersome cold).

Clearly, while giving away ~ma, I have bogarted all the !!!! Wheeeee!!!!!!!!!

Snow Day! I feel like I'm about 12! And it wasn't even like "you can come in late' or "non-essential personnel" so that you have to agonize over how essential you are. Just "Stay Home!!"

Word is, KO *may be* in our airspace today...I'm carless and in my sweatpants, anyway...wearing that laundry-day bra. If he met me today, he'd totally think our team lost, and I suppose the leather pants wouldn't work on two sports guys. I understand there's no swooning in baseball. (Waves at Keith and Danny, just to lighten shit up)) Danny would kill me if I tried anything.

after I read your message - I went to spend 5 minutes cleaning out my car - and there was my phone. so the ma is working.

also matt's new text message seem to make it clear that he is in a new place.

so I am calmer.

I'm so glad that the day has improved a bit, beth. I just lost my mouse (not literally, every now and then it freezes up until I reboot), but found phone and good text message are much more important than a working mouse, so yeah!!

((((Steph)))). So sorry you are under so much stress. I was actually thinking of advising y'all to start a splinter group...nevermind.

Does anyone want to compose an apologetic email to a friend who I was a total tool to last night because I was teee-rashed? I'm pretty sure it'll be fine, but I'm having anxiety attacks just thinking about it.

Dear [friend],

I am so sorry about last night. I was a total tool because I was trashed, but I know that's no excuse. I hope you can forgive me.

Love, DJ

Dear [DJ's friend],

Dude. I tried to break the land speed record and post a personal best for inebriation last night. Apparently this required me to be a complete tool jackass to you. I hope you can respect my attempt to set a new record, and (more importantly) forgive my shit-faced, stupid-ass trespasses. You're a good friend and deserve the better part of my friendship. I'm sorry.

Love,

DJ

Thanks Kristin! That's pretty much what I said, except I think I said I was a total jackass instead of too.

I feel like I was more jackassy than tooly.

ETA: Hec too!

Well, no -- we more or less *are* -- it's just that, for now, we're staying very very VERY under the radar. To the point of not even referring to ourselves as a "group."

You should all get t-shirts that say "SPLINTER GROUP" in big-ass letters. Just because it'd be funny.
