You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, Sophia. I just don't even know. NOTHING IS WRONG WITH YOU.

Is there a way to submit a video so it embeds the viewer in the screen?

I don't know. But seriously, feel free to log in with my yahoo email.

Who do you know prone to walking cats and slave to her cat's shot schedule? That'd be the one who probably qualifies as the buffistas' crazy cat lady...

Allyson, would you be ok with folks (me) asking on fb if there is anyone interested in doing some probono website building. Fair amount of crossover with here, but I've got enough techy friends who are starting stuff on the side, I might get a bite?

Because books.

I created a tumblr account, too, which I planned to use for book promotion. I ... can't actually remember what I called it, though, or my password.

Sophia, this chick also sounds like someone who might have a few social interaction problems, and maybe who has fix-it-itis given what she needs to do with her sibling(s). Which is not making excuses for her, I hope, but maybe if you can frame it that way in your head it would help?

Also, what everyone else said.

Sophia, your coworker is an awful, awful person. If it wouldn't (probably) cause you to suffer a headache, I would suggest liberally applying some really potent perfume (like, say, Poison) right before you got in the car with her.

I see we are of one (evil) mind about this, Jilli. I say load up on painkillers and bathe in so much of the stuff that the fumes fog her car windows!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thank you so much! This actually helps me a lot- she was really so earnest in offering all kinds of help (not just the checklist, but also that she would drive me to the laundromat if I was just washing things out in the sink, or to get detergent if it is too heavy for the bus.)

And the thing is, if I did reek of cat pee or whatever, I would rather be taken aside and told about it by someone-- I just don't know what more I can do besides wear scented items, which basically cause horrific headaches and also skin rashes.

ALSO I AM LIKING THIS GOOD THINGS TUMBLR ALREADY!!!!!

and I have now had a couple of glasses of wine, so feeling better. (unless it is the wine which makes me smell?

I was thinking a bit about it "It Get's Better" videos which I love, and thinking-- sometimes it does not get better, and you are 37 and people are telling you that you are stinky!

I say you should wear one of those obnoxious car "air fresheners," [link] Sophia.

But that's just one weirdo person. We're the smart ones. Listen to US. ::nods::

And have another glass of wine.

I'm thinking I'll just have to do it myself.

Hm. Well, I may be able to call in a favor, especially if it's just laying some pretty on a WP blog. I guess it depends on where things fall on wants versus needs.

...I just discovered that my phone is out. Since I have internet I guess it's nothing apocalyptic.


sarameg - Oct 27, 2010 5:03:09 pm PDT #2379 of 30001

Allyson, I'm gonna put out a call, let me know if you want me to remove it.
