Or could see it readily. Everyone <i>will<\/i> see it at some point, just competely out-of-context and in the most destructively hurtful way possible. And I&#8217;ve fallen into it myself; I&#8217;ve posted friends-only and privately on my lj, and I&#8217;ve had private content on one of my sites. But no more! None of this secret blog, friends-only, join the forum bullshit. My experience has been that these are the kind of places that breed a twisted hive-mind solipsism. The place for avataristic, faceless inbreeding. The place where only one thing is guaranteed: somebody will have their hate at the ready.<\/p>\n<p \/>I know I&#8217;m not going to change how anybody else does bidness, I just want you to know that from here on out, my shiznit is all wysiwyg and such. (I&#8217;m cracking myself up really bad right now.) And! If you&#8217;ve got something to tell me, feel free to email or call, since I won&#8217;t be acknowledging no p-a bullshit on the interweb. You know where to find me.<\/p>\n<p \/>Right&#8230;<\/p>\n<p \/>HERE.<\/p>\n<p \/>So! Work has been so awesome since all the figurative hugging occurred. Today we had a birthday party for Josh. It&#8217;s not that I don&#8217;t know Josh&#8217;s name, I just forget to remember it until I hear it again. Pam brought in a 20-layer fluffy irish-cream-chocolate cake-thing with sugar chrysanthemums on the top. I made Josh eat the flowers, as that is what you&#8217;re supposed to do to someone on their birthday: force them to eat something that could easily make them puke. Michael apparently took up a meth habit today, and was even more frenetic than usual. A typical conversation:<\/p>\n<p \/>\n<div class='small'><i>him<\/i>: Where&#8217;d Micci go?<br \/><i>me<\/i>: To get plates for the cake.<br \/><i>him<\/i> (5 minutes later): Is Micci gone?<br \/><i>me<\/i>: She went to get plates!<br \/><i>him<\/i> (after I get back from the bathroom and have been sitting at my desk for 2 minutes): Huh?<br \/><i>me<\/i>: I didn&#8217;t say anything.<br \/><i>him<\/i>: I asked where Micci went.<\/div>\n<p \/>And then I&#8217;m still laughing about this im, which wasn&#8217;t even the thing that made me spit chewed sammich out on my keyboard, and made Michael ask what the hell I was laughing about over there.<\/p>\n<p \/>\n<div class='small'><i>me<\/i>: i just told micci &#8216;midgets are good for everything&#8217;<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  they are!<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  like when you drop your keys in the sewer<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  you can tie them to the end of a rope<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  and put a piece of chewed bubble gum on them<br \/><i>me<\/i>: oh god<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  and you can drop them on the keys<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  the gum sticks to the keys<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  and you pull them up<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  its the actual weight on the midget that really helps<br \/><i>me<\/i>: stop it, i&#8217;m dying<br \/><i>him<\/i>:  their stubby little fingers don&#8217;t hold stuff well so you need the gum<\/div>\n<p \/>New photos!
