after the past couple days, i am reminded that being cryptic in a journal that many people from many places read is not always a good idea. mainly because it can lead to possible misunderstandings or needless worries. sadly, i forget this a lot.
anyway. i usually have one thing or another on my mind involving people and relationships, but there are better places for discussion than a public website. i will keep the things i don’t want to be specific about under closer watch. meaning, not here. silly me.
c’est ca. merci beaucoup. la la la.
last night debbie, jason, chris and i headed downtown to see chicago. the musical, not the city. (hee.) it was, sadly, only ok. i wasn’t crazy about the woman playing roxie, or the way mama morton always stood in one spot to sing her songs. i did, however, like billy flynn, and especially the woman playing velma. she had the perfect voice for that role. in any case, it was nice to go to “the theater.” (say it in your best snooty voice.)
in the blast-from-the-past department, i got email this morning from an old TA from tech. he’s about to graduate with his ph.d. and apparently still keeps in touch with karen enough to get both mine and becca’s email addresses, as he found a photo from our class and wondered what we were all up to. the funniest part was this (he’s french, forgive the grammar): “You always remember the smart one, the one who behave badly, the one who talk too much (I wonder who I can fit in this category 😉 )”
i’m amused. karen was definitely the smart one, but honestly, i don’t know which was the one who talked too much and which was the one who behaved badly. one was becca, and one was me, i just don’t know which of us was which. maybe a bit of both. (the “behaving badly” part, of course, simply refers to how often we teased him, or how many times we whined about lab reports. other than that, we were angels. hee.)
if i had to guess, becca was probably miss talk too much, while i was likely miss bad behavior. ah, how i loved to give my TA’s a hard time. but all in good fun.
all in good fun…
