This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

But I do like that people from my past can find me

I'm discovering that I don't. If I decide I want to get in touch with someone from my past, I'd rather do it myself.

Punishingly Intricate

Ugh, Theresa, I'm sorry and I hope something way better comes your way very soon!

I feel like the Facebook privacy shit should bother me more than it does. And, I don't like how they've changed things up w/out communicating clearly. I think they are shifty and whatnot but I just can't get that worked up about it. Call me a sell out but they make it so freaking easy to fundraise!

Facebook has put photos of me in my Photo Album that it ganked from a friend's page. I don't want them there; they are hideous. But I can't figure out how to get rid of them.

Don't you just have to remove your tag from the photos? Or has that changed.

But they're not my photos; I can't remove the tag.

Yes, you can.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I LOVE this phrase.

Me too. I may try to find ways to interject it into conversation. Weasels in bastard sauce. Makes you feel better to say it.

Thanks to everyone. It's probably the kick in the ass that I needed to seek out new opportunities anyway.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If I decide I want to get in touch with someone from my past, I'd rather do it myself.

Some very random people have found me, people that I have no idea could even track me down. That curiosity still exists, although it's mostly academic, since I'm inactive.

they're not my photos; I can't remove the tag.

Yes, you can. Unless stuff has changed since I took my name off some party photos.

This is why I am so glad I was late adopter of Facebook, and just treated it as if everything I put on there would be public.

I thought that you could always untag yourself in a photo, no matter who posted the photo.

Yes, I'm also glad I never become a fan of anything, or listed any likes and dislikes or interests on my page.

Because books.

Can I ask the high school teachers, if one of your students got caught ditching the whole day, first offense, what would the punishment be?

I feel like I should know this from Jake, but he spent so much time in in-school suspension, the question became academic.
