Note to people wanting me to give them money:

If you're going to make me leave a message for a patient account representative to call me back, do NOT make me sit here on hold for five minutes and thirty-seven seconds.

Just how sick are you planning on getting, anyway?

M has been telling me for the last week that we really need to make a few dinners that produce leftovers, because he's running low on lunch meals in the freezer in the basement. He added lasagna ingredients to our shopping list last night because he wanted to build up our stash. I was thinking that it was a pretty good thing that we're running low--nice to start fresh every now and then, you know?

I went down there just now to grab some soup for lunch, and guess how many lunches the boyo has down there? Since he's running low and all?

25.

Yes, my love, that will only feed you for FIVE WEEKS if I don't cook anything else between now and then. I can't believe how close we are to the edge this time!!

Men!

facebook

I think I might be too much of a geek for facebook. I really don't get it. I just click stuff and it always wants to add some sort of app to my page and why can't I just look at the stupid thing before I choose to add it and then it wants me to invite all my friends to share this app and I haven't even seen what it is yet, and am I supposed to send you a ghost or a turtle or a green bean and why would I want to send out a group lick? I was invited to take a quiz to see how much like someone else I was and so I did but now I can't make it show me how much like them I am so what was the point? But I can make it tell me the countdown on when I can take another quiz! Great. I think I received two growing gifts and I clicked in the wrong place and now I only see one so now I think maybe my friend thinks I am weird and mean and rejected their gift. Also, what is the wall etiquette? If someone writes on your wall, what is the polite way to respond? It's not like writing on their wall will provide a continuous thread so no one will be able to figure out what the heck you're talking about. And also! I keep losing things. I can never figure out exactly where to look to find new stuff, and then three days later I will accidentally end up on a page and find that I was supposed to confirm friend details or accept something or whatever, but I didn't know!

This is not to say that I am not enjoying being all facebooky with you, but I want you to know that I am extraordinarily inept at this and (forgive my immodesty) I am really not used to being so clueless at teh internets so if I do something weird, then please don't laugh at me, I am trying. And if you need any more clueless friends, here I am.
