I just got back in contact with a pair of my former students who were all crazy back in the day, lost contact with them for years, and there they are! Struggling, of course, but in way better shape than I was expecting to find them. One has apparently gone through treatment and is working with the organization that got him clean. And the girl is working and being a mom, and is all happy to talk to me again. Man.
I feel nastily vindicated. My Nemesis is so adept at deleting email (she thinks this hides the evidence of what she's done/not done) that she deleted the files I sent her two weeks ago that she needs to prepare something.
And yesterday I forwarded her a request from a client asking what the status was of the task she was doing. Except she doesn't have the files, because she deleted them (or she's too incompetent to search her inbox), and she's apparently too embarrassed to ask me.
I very kindly re-forwarded the original email with the attached files. Because I'm nice like that.

Right there with you. What a douchnozzle.
I've thought he was a jerk since he talked about "Jews wanting to help the underdog" in a tone I might use for projectile vomiting. Asshole.
I'm ashamed to live in the state that he's from.
Hell, I'm ashamed to be the same species that he's from.
Don't worry about it. I'm from Arizona. The Grand Canyon of Shame State.
Sox, what's the news about my cousin? Tell me!
I have a tentative interview tomorrow with channel 7 about Sassafras (and the evil calls). DH is in Switzerland so I have to do this one alone. So. Far. Out. Of. My. Comfort. Zone.
Also, Perkins: Penny and Mary H. say, "Hi!"
