But this was funny, is the sense that is not. I recently found out that two hypercompetitive members of our group were apparently, some months back, trashing each other on their Facebooks. Can you fucking imagine? Are they twelve?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Brenda! I just remembered that the other night I had asked you about how your eating habits changed, and your post got eaten, and so I was wondering if you'd be willing to give it a shot again.
Please feel free not to -- you don't exist for my own personal edification.
(Everyone else does, though. Dance, monkeys, dance!)
Oh, yeah yeah. Let me put my thoughts together a little and I will.

Compose it in Word then cut and paste!
Hah! This time I will do that.

Sorry, I have a cat on my lap, and my cat is higher on my "I exist for his/her edification" scale.
I mean, it's not like I haven't been negative about things, but the fact that the concern came from people that don't really know me or my work, or why I might have reason to be negative is the frustrating thing.
Grrr. Er, translation: I've been there. It's maddening.
"Yes, I'm unhappy, because I work with crazy people. If I enjoyed working with crazy people, I wouldn't be looking to work with your group, because you're not crazy. Although this Catch-22 you've set up is making me reconsider that assessment."
Disclaimer: I apparently do have a facebook account but I don't use it, and apparently don't know how, either!
I'm seeing names popping up in my gmail twice over, so apologies to all you Buffistas if I'm spamming you.
QQ: afternoon tea. Gender-biased?
And what's a really really inexpensive menu? I've got several packets of lavender that I'm going to boil into some lemonade (it's in early April). Tea packets, are they tacky? Loose-leaf, is it too much trouble? And then I'd have to scrounge up tea pots and extra strainer dohickeys. Are just mini-scones enough? I make killer cucumber sammiches, but whenever I make them I don't want to share...
Oh dear - I've mentioned my Larouchie aunt & uncle in here before, yes? Behold my uncle, handing out Impeach Obama signs at a Tea Party rally. Complete with Hitler mustache, because, really, nothing says "My cult is more important to me than my Jewish heritage" like the President in a Hitler mustache.

Spending this much on nail polish is a tad frivolous, but I feel okay about it given that it's making me very happy.
You know, it's cheaper than therapy.
