Kimmah made me smile today
For those who don't know, Kimmah and I started off a little on the rough side. After that she nicely extended her hand and I have to admit that I felt a little suspect about it. She invited me into the bar one night after we had a couple of not so nice PMs with each other. I remember talking to Glow about it and was worried that she was setting me up for an ambush or something. *snort* Me? Paranoid? Never.
Anyhow, ever since then (and that was bout 3 years ago) we have warmed up to each other. Oh shit, unless she is still setting me up for an ambush. *looks over shoulder*
So today was obviously a little heated on the OT and it is probably a good thing that my boss banished me to another part of the building for the last part of the day. I came back a little less irritated and Kimmah had me cracking up. A lot of people had me cracking up but today Kim is who stuck out as the one who made me crack up the most.
So far I have survived without Michelle. Of course, she has only been gone for a day. But how odd. I've noticed that since she left, the cat box fairy, the dish fairy, the counter cleaning fairy, the garbage take out fairy and the mail fairy seem to have disappeared. I hope they return before she does. I'm not even going to get in to what the shopping fairy bought me to eat for the next five days. It was not me who bought cookie dough for dinner or cake for breakfast or peanut butter cups for lunch. Nope. Wasn't me.
It's a good thing that I am going out to dinner with Sharnina tonight. It will be my one good meal of the week. *grin*

A little Kimmah is always good for the soul.
OT should never be an emotional experience and if it becomes one then it is time to turn off the computer. Such silly drama. OT is best visted when one's heart and mood are goofy.
Fairy? I thought you were both lesbos? I am confused.
LOL at all the fairies in your house. You're so cute!
Monsty is so right. Turn off the computer when it gets too emotional.
yeah, well, here's an admission. I HAVE NO MEMORY OF MOST OF THAT. Ack! PM's? really. Good fucking grief. I will take your word for it. I used to delete stuff from my inbox, so they're long gone and I never want to see them. And the bar? Oh, wow. I can honestly say that there wasn't any malice intended there because I would remember that. I'm pretty good at remembering the people that I don't like *coughsophiecough* *coughsnoochcough*. I hate that I caused anyone any sort of grief because of the way I treated them...well, almost anyone. I do remember talking to Buggy and telling her that I felt badly that I'd made people feel defensive and unwelcome.
It's so funny how people can interpret the same situation so differently. And of course now, like you said, we're coming from the same place and there's that perspective.
I am sooooo sorry. Really. I know you know that as you have no doubt read in the verbal vomit PM I already sent you.
I've been told by a couple of people in the past that I was intimidating at OT, which was sort of suprising to me. I don't really think of myself as having that much of a presence there, frankly. I suppose it goes back to new/old and those roles.
On a positive note, I do love to see my name so prominently mentioned in print. It definitely appeals to my delusions of grandeur. I think you could even create a Kimmah tag like landru did so that I can find all references to myself more easily.
For fuck's sake, this is going to be longer than the epic PM. I'm stopping right now. And Monsty IS right--you can't let it get to you. That's the lesson I learned a while back and beieve me, once you learn to walk away or to ignore it, it's much easier to go to OT and make it what you need it to be for youself. Seriously, Kim. Shut up.
SMOOCHES!!!
Yeah, me again. You say I had you cracking up...you were laughing at my picture, weren't you. Because my hair looks really wonky and oddly asymetrical (how the hell do you spell that word? why doesn't google add something useful to fucked up blogger and put in spell check).
Excuse me, but contrary to what Dan said in his "forest fire" thread, it should ALL be about me, including this blog entry.
Bravie? Please edit your post to add something nice about me.
Thank you.
So which fairy do you miss the most? Tom makes dinner happen around here too - when he is gone I just eat weird snacky shit and mourn while sitting in my own debris of life.
Kim is a lovely person and would never ambush anyone who didn't deserve it. Actually I don't remember her ambushing anyone ever, just saying what she thought in very clear terms without a big attack - I always figured it was a teacher skill thing. Non-confrontational confrontation.
*waves to Kim*
*ambushes Bravie and gooses her*
How many times did I say the f word yesterday? I think I need an intervention...
I thought about you when I was reading all of her posts, especially quality v. quantity.
I could use a few fairies around here today myself. The only one I know is the party fairy.
*waves to Kimmah*
*wishes she had a grocery shopping fairy*
i'd intervene, but i think i blew the top off of the f-word meter myself.
and boo? you like fairies? i have a little green one in mind that would just be perfect for you then.
I've been loving OT the last couple of days, but when the heck did all the noobs show up? Ah, whatever, the bulk of them will be gone in the next month and the cool ones will stick around. But the coolest of the cool are all here.
Kimmah has that effect on people. :)
It's too bad she missed the green fairy's appearance a few weeks ago! I would've loved to see her go at it with S about the stolen banana! *evil grin*
OT was fun yesterday! It was great to see some familiar faces come out and play.
...and I agree with all of the other smart folks. When it gets too much, walk away from the computer.
oh, i didn't miss her appearance. i commented to her, too. i was just coldly civil and brutally honest because i didn't want to be the bitch who swooped in from nowhere and picked on poor sophie.

*giggles at all your fairies*
Does this mean that you're foregoing the bloggest loser club this week?
Doh, Kim. That's right. I had forgotten that you made an appearance in that thresd. I am so forgetful lately. I must be getting old. :)
Man, what did I miss this time? I haven't visited OT in a couple days. I don't have time to check now either. *pout*
Kimmah still intimidates me, but I agree that she is hella funny. *waves to Kim*
*smooches* Carebear
i intimidate you, jen? fie, fie, fie. unless verbose, self-induglent blather is scary. then i can totally see where you're coming from.
I'm not sure what is up with this weekend, but Kimmah and Monsty have been cracking me up more than usual.
Know what I like about Kimmah? Her stellar name.
I missed OT drama? *feigns surprise*
Michellllllllllle, hurry back!
