Huh -- my coworker just came over to talk about the football team of our mutual alma mater, and was doing that thing where you call the team "we," which I have always thought was weird, even when I was a current student! She was super excited about the whole thing. This is why we aren't friends: not that there's anything wrong with her, but we literally couldn't be more different in our tastes and interests.

Hrrm? Oh! Oh.

Oh, the West Indies everything team is totally we. Always has been, always will be. They are deliberately representing us, so why wouldn't they be?
It's a totally common thing! I still don't get it.
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday sumi!
Congrats Nilly!
All the tests on Nova came back normal, so the teeth cleaning is back on. We'll see how things go from there.
Happy birthday, sumi!
Nilly, congratulations!
