What is even happening?

Errrgh. I made Noah and Grace's respiratory therapist laugh yesterday, but now I think he wants revenge.
What happened, Kat?

Sparky, did Lee introduce you to b.org, or did you run into her by accident, here?

I knew Ellen S. in college, and it was a complete coincidence to meet her at b.org.

That's really cool, flea. Did it take you long to figure out that you knew one another?

Replace "Ellen S." with "Calli," and I could say the same as flea.

Did it take you long to figure it out, Fred Pete?

My acquaintance coincidence was Zoe. She knew one of my college roommates.

Oh my word, that's right. I'd blocked that out. She didn't live too far from UTTAD, either.

A year later, an acquaintance of my E's mother, who turned out to be M's aunt, played the match-maker and introduced them. The got married, have two adorable daughters, and the only people who remember that once upon a time they passed each other in some building, are my brother and myself.
That's a wonderful story, Nilly. They don't remember it, at all. Hee.

I wouldn't say I knew her "well", but Betsy and I were acquainted with each other from rec.arts.comics, and we'd actually met once at a Worldcon, IIRC. Also Brenda M (Lysana on LJ). And I was already good friends with SF-Marty and Debg's husband.

I recruited shrift to the Buffistas, though we still met in fandom.

Where did you met, Dana?

Oh, neat. I knew you knew Marta and Nic, but not Lysana and Betsy.

In fact, one of the reasons that I started regularly posting to the Buffy topic on TT was that I recognized not only Betsy, but also Jerry Boyajian and Mitch Wagner, so I felt "safe" about using my real name and online identity.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not Brenda M... I think her last name is D. (Why is my brain filled with this kind of thing??)

Yup. D.

Why is my brain filled with this kind of thing??

With that, however, I can't help you.

Actually, I think I pointed Lee to b.org (possibly even TT) where I was lurking because we were discussing Buffy in email. She definitely posted first, though.

Sparky! We didn't get to post together for so long, this is the first chance I get to congratulate you on the big move. So, um, sort-of-congrats, I guess?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Did it take you long to figure it out, Fred Pete?

A while. I hadn't seen her in just this side of forever. Then she appeared on the board, and she mentioned some personal info. I thought I recognized her, and e-mailed later to confirm.

'Twas a weird feeling.

I think I only know people here from here.

I can one up Jesse. Sometimes I think I only know people from here!

What happened, Kat?

John, yesterday's respiratory therapist, got Noah all calm and stable after doing all sorts of stuff to him. I waited a few minutes and went over and ruined all of John's work by poking at Noah and getting him all riled up again. I knew it would happen and told John that I may as well get him riled up since someone else currently has to deal with Noah when he's upset. John found it funny when I pointed out that I would be sure to pay for it soon enough when I had Noah at home.
