omnis, I must say you got me thinking about the dating thing a little bit, now that I know you have her email.
You see, if one is asking me out, most chances I'd be too freaked out of the idea of dating which may lead, God forbid, being in relationship (only half snarkish here. Working on it...), I'll say no. Even when I see it coming from miles away (which I usually can), but I need to feel extremely comfortable to say yes, and since I'm still not all quite comfortable with the idea... it just got me thinking that maybe being asked out by email wouldn't be such a bad idea. I'm not talking about my "real" email, of course (that would be somehow invading my privacy), but the one I give when I don't want to give my email address (which I check, because I know I may get there something that might interest me and some people just have only this address of mine. Oh, and also my dad can't figure out how to change my contact details, for it once was my only email address). Of course, in that case there's the chance I might forget about it, but better chances for me to regroup in time and think "oh fuck me and my fears, yes! let's date, if only for practice sake!".
Anyhow, if you're asking her out by email and not number, may I advise to do it within two weeks? Or else, she might not remember, and I think it's one of the striking the iron while it's hot cases.
Also, yay for some kitten loving! And connie, yay for news!
After about a week or so of thinking I'm doing fine, I got all saddened about my friend's death again. I wanted to watch Buffy with dinner, and wanted to watch something of the 4th season. While thinking about which ep to watch, I remembered the fan production I did for Hush. Basically, we dubbed the episode, and she dubbed Tara, and I nearly broke into tears when I remembered some of her lines (for even now, few years later, I can still remember main parts of the script by heart). I ended up choosing A New Man, and going to bed in tears. I wish for the day when I'll be able to remember her with a smile, and not with tears to come already.
I'll also be out today to visit another dying relative, if he'll feel up for it.
Also, Laga, whenever I read your tag I'm thinking about the Dulli (Afghan Whigs) line, "you can fuck my body baby, but please, don't fuck my mind".
My tag is from an episode of How I Met Your Mother. I remember the Afghan Wigs but I can't recall any of their songs.
{{{{{{{{Shir}}}}}}}}} getting you stocked up on hugs so that you have plenty to share with your whole family.
Waves hello to Omnis.
Distraction, eh, Laga? What could be more distracting than a walking house? [link] Very cool YouTube vid.
I had a weird day. I finally gave in and admitted my shoulder was bothering me enough to wear a sling. I hate wearing a sling -- I can't get my jacket on right, or my backpack, and everybody asks what's wrong and I don't feel like answering. So anyway. By about 10 in the morning, my shoulder was feeling fine. Totally fine. So I could keep the sling on and feel like a fake getting sympathy for a shoulder that wasn't hurting, or take it off, risk maybe injuring it again, and get all kinds of weird looks from people that I'd just told an hour earlier that I'd partially dislocated the shoulder.
I ended up keeping it on, figuring that was easier. Managed to not reinjure. Managed to dodge most questions, too.

howdy waves back at WS
Don't be surprised if that cat comes back. Of all the cats I've known, maybe half of them were allowed by the landlord. Not that I'm saying you should break the rules for a little old kitty cat.
Ya, I'm tempted. I've seen the cats a bunch of times. Cute thing. No where near young or thin. Clearly not a stray. I psss psss psss it a few times to try and schritch it, with no luck. Then Thursday or so I was trying to pet it, and he was actually approaching, when a red pick-up truck parked right next to mine, and a nice gal got out apologizing if the cat was bothering me. Seems the cat was a stray a number of years ago, and she started feeding it. Next thing ya know, she's got a cat. I'm guessing she lets him out during the day when she's not home, just in case the maintenance folks swing by. Either way, not really mine to have. Plus, I can't afford a pet just yet.

um. I wish I had her e-mail. I'm hoping for an e-mail from co-worker with contact info from her. And ya, I totally want to strike while the iron is hot.

Holy cow how cool is that?
and everybody asks what's wrong and I don't feel like answering
I just usually smile like a 5 year old and answer "life".

Oh! I'm sorry, I read one of your posts as if you have it already and just waiting to get her number(something with first name/last name and the first letter of the first name/last name @ company, IIRC). Anyways, infogetting~ma.
And Hil, shoulder~ma.
Hey Fay, there was a segment on NPR radio this morning about Thai politics, or what they called the Theatre of the Absurd.
Sad that I am not on Facebook so cannot view the meara pic, but smiling anyway at the imagined version.
Sounds like the sling was a good plan, Hil.
It is chilly here! Woo! I wore a flannel shirt when I drove to school this morning. It is 56F!! Pardon my excitement.
ahh thanks for the reminder! I haz seen Meara Photo and Lo. It is made of good.
rushing now.
I should probably not mention the Hanna Andersson sale that posted at 4am this morning, right? Yeah. Prolly not.
