My company is doing a massive restructuring and paycuts. I am terrified out of my mind, but I won't let anyone here know that. Right now, I just keep a smile on my face and do what I am supposed to do. It is hard to do that all of the time.
I would have rather told you something randomly pleasant....
I feel guilty every time I think about you. I probably shouldn't read your journel, but I do anyways. It was a long time ago & I'm sorry. But I can't make myself get in touch. You probably hate me. I like your knitting pictures.
How can I possibly tell you something in which you are interested that you don't already know, when you are a wise and all-seeing being who knows everything?
Um.
When Dave first started buying me Bears, I used to name them after whatever I was drinking at the time. Sometimes this was tweaked to be more appropriate for the bear, sometimes not. The first one was called Bacardi. My drinking habits have changed....
The next army I build (due to be used the weekend after next) will consist almost entirely of model whales.
I have bad boundaries. When my friends are stressed, I stress for them. And then I kind of resent that they are having a bad time, because if they weren't, I could be happy! So it's all THEIR fault!
Yes, I know this is insane, and my fault, and my job to manage my bad boundaries.
Still there as far as I know, although we don't make it down to Decatur all that often. Right now, trips to Decatur are focused on the Belgian goodness that is The Brickstore.
But there is an AMAZING taqueria in Marshall North Carolina - a town with only two other restaurants. If for any reason you find yourself there, go to the French Broad Taqueria.
It's a semi-regular way of sending messages to some people on LJ, since they get the comment emailed to them, but it doesn't remain in the journal/on LJ.
Well, I'm sure I know some "facts" you don't know, and most of the first 50 digits of pi ... but I think you either know most things I would tell you, or I'd use this as a place to moan about my life, and you know about my life (particularly as so much of it is a wavy reflection of yours, but with more goatee beards and left-handed people!)

I still can. Would you like to go back and comment anonymously?
