She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

My flight out of Chicago is delayed and won't land until 1am, and I still have a cold. Maybe I should work from home tomorrow?

Once again I've watched so much Elementary that I forgot to make the enchilada casserole I had planned. Mashed potatoes again.

I have heard of the suicide semi colon thing. But I still think if it's your friend's type of humor then a semicolon for having had part of his colon removed would be hilarious.

Hung out with some friends tonight, watched "While You Were Sleeping" as our holiday movie. Hadn't seen it in years. But it still is awesome.

Also hilarious--the one friend who when the movie hit New Years was like "there must be a kiss at midnight! [meara] you must help me! You will make this happen!" And I was kind of taken aback but sure, I currently have no other plans to kiss someone at midnight so I guess I could help my friend out. and then she apparently realized it sounded like she was expecting ME to kiss her and quickly backtracked, explaining she meant she assumed we would be hanging out on New Years (because our couple friends might go do their own things) and she trusted me to ensure we were doing something somewhere where she could get kissed. Not that I would personally make it happen. But we all laughed a lot at her falling over trying to explain herself, after she'd been so adamant!

Teppy, have you ever read Bet Me by Jennifer Crusie? I am rereading it and 1) I remain convinced that Emilio's in the story is based on Biagio's Bistro on Ludlow, although I have never been to Biagio's and 2) Min continues to remind me very strongly of YOU in her speech patterns/repartee.

There's nothing that makes me feel like a pervy old lady more than scrolling through Facebook and noticing a photo and thinking, "who's that hot guy?" and realizing it is the son of my friend. Bonus points when the hot guy in question is fifteen, although today at least it was a college graduate.

I have read it! Several times, actually. And I've never been to Biagio's either, but now I feel like a recon mission is necessary.

2) Min continues to remind me very strongly of YOU in her speech patterns/repartee.

Wow, I'm really flattered!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

So, I checked with myself this morning, and I still hate everyone.
