The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

This morning, I have already made some progress on my laundry situation and gone for a short walk and done as much weeding as my allergies and my incision would allow, so now I am trying to decide what would be the better reward--walking up to the farmer's market and one of the Mexican restaurants, or going to have sushi for dinner.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

ita !, what happened with the meeting? Did your migraine specialist get to contribute, and they just didn't listen? Did I miss a post?

I think I'm going to get an Esther Williams swimsuit this year. I'm due for a new one. Just trying to decide on the fabric.

Man, I've wanted one of those for about three years. Probably not going to be able to get one this year, either. Ah well. You should definitely get one and tell me how awesome it is.

Lee, thanks for the reminder to move my laundry. I've done dishes and spiffed up the living room. I should really do some work in my room and bathroom, but I don't wanna.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Does anyone have recommendations for a way to send online invitations that are nice and just have people RSVP to me (not go to Evite or whatever), for free or cheap?

It's called “email”, Jesse.

Email was my thought to.

Maybe you could do a little animated .gif. I hear those were popular in 1998.

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

ita !, what happened with the meeting? Did your migraine specialist get to contribute, and they just didn't listen?

I don't know! The nice nurse checked my files and couldn't find anything to indicate they'd been updated with a new mandate since last weekend, and my migraine specialist hasn't gotten back to me since Friday, at which point he hadn't been able to reach the ER head. That's why nice nurse (seriously!) is emailing her too, on my behalf.

Do you want to make some sort of image in Word or Powerpoint or a graphics program and embed it into an email and mail it? I'd hate you forever if you did that, but I don't see you making an HTML email to send out, because that's more complicated. Even so, you have no guarantee that they'll see it as intended, because they might just get text emails.

No.

Phew.

but I don't see you making an HTML email to send out, because that's more complicated. Even so, you have no guarantee that they'll see it as intended, because they might just get text emails.

Right, me neither, and that is also my fear. Which is why I put this out to the group -- is there any good solution for emailing something that looks pretty and doesn't require clicking through or signing up for anything?

If the answer is no, I may go back to hand-written note cards.

I don't see how there could be. I mean, either you do HTML in an email (depends on your client and theirs playing nice together), or you type a plain text email, or you send them a link.

Am I leaving out anything?
