Jess, I'd rephrase "weren't waiting on more info" so that it doesn't sound like you are saying "to see if there were any more hoops you wanted me the jump through." Maybe "if there is anything I can add" or some such?
I'll be in my bunk.

And now back to grading.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Maybe:
touch base and see if there is any further assistance I can offer.

I had my smoosh appt today. They only took 4 images, seems like they used to take more. Painful but done.

What is a smooth appt, and do I want one?
It is bucketing rain out there. I'm reminding myself that this could easily have been a blizzard instead.

It was smoosh not smooth, I corrected.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Awww...I like the idea of a smooth appointment. I need some smoothing.
Looks like I may skip karate in favor of spending time with a friend who knows how to make me smile.

Yes, Jessica. Smooosh versus smooth is a big difference. Of course I'm not sure what smoothing would be in that context. Maybe a spa day with an exfoliating scrub? In which case, go smooth!

Just a note to reiterate that Buffistas are the best people in the world.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jess, I'd rephrase "weren't waiting on more info" so that it doesn't sound like you are saying "to see if there were any more hoops you wanted me the jump through."
I actually liked it because it puts the delay on Jess if at all possible -- Is there anything I'm not doing that you need? -- vs. what's taking you so long??!!??!?!?
...which is to say, you're fine either way. Different people read things differently and a good-faith effort shouldn't be seen badly by the people on the other side of the screen.
I am ready for some smoothing myself.
