That was odd...

I read Kaitron's post and clicked the comments so that I could make a remark about going to the dark side.

...Matthew are you some sort of psychic stalker? ..or did you know that I would ask this if you posted that and thus posted it to throw me off the scent of what's really going on. hmmmmmm *looks over shoulder*

I think I'll take 'psychic stalker' for $500, Alex.

Ack!

I looked away, replied to an IM or two, clicked to look at my comment, and you'd already responded! EEP! *RUNS AWAY FRANTICALLY*

LOL. This is great; almost as instant as IM, but with a public record of our insanity. :)

00:43
(00:43:29) aslade: what the heck?
(00:43:53) sexyhalibut2: No way! Not Steve! I've known Steve my WHOLE LIFE!
(00:44:51) aslade: *spazzes!*
(00:45:34) sexyhalibut2: You know, I've got LJ set to alert me when someone replies to something I've written. I'm not just spastically refreshing comments pages every 3 seconds
(00:46:15) aslade: alert via e-mail?
(00:46:19) sexyhalibut2: yep
(00:46:53) aslade: so you're spastically checking your e-mail for comment updates every 3 seconds
(00:47:20) sexyhalibut2: it even has a nifty little form for html-enabled email programs, so i don't even have to go to the website
(00:47:35) sexyhalibut2: and my email program spastically checks itself every 3 seconds. nifty, huh?
(00:48:09) aslade: so if you consider your e-mail program part of you... then part of you was spastically checking for updates every 3 seconds
(00:48:20) aslade: and thus you're not a psychic stalker.. you're just spastic
(00:48:22) aslade:
00:48
(00:48:38) sexyhalibut2: i guess that would be true, but i don't consider my email program as part of myself. that would be creepy
(00:48:52) aslade: ahha! so you admit it!
(00:49:03) sexyhalibut2: admit to being creepy? freely!
(00:49:26) aslade: so I've gotten it all right?
(00:49:27) sexyhalibut2: i didn't think that that was ever in question
(00:49:45) sexyhalibut2: spastic is a whole different accusation, though.
(00:50:02) aslade: I discovered you trying to distract me from teh truth, and then solved teh mystery? ...just like in the Nancy Drew books?
(00:50:15) aslade: lol, can you imagine if all this was still in comments to Kaitron's post?
(00:50:36) sexyhalibut2: except this happened in real life, and after the 1950s
(00:50:45) sexyhalibut2: it can be. copy/paste is our friend...
(00:51:03) aslade: lol
(00:51:05) aslade: should we?
(00:51:14) sexyhalibut2: we should.
(00:51:34) sexyhalibut2: shall you, or shall i?
(00:51:48) aslade: brb
(00:54:36) aslade: okay, back but I'm not sure for how long
(00:54:37) aslade: shall we?
(00:54:47) aslade: drat, brb
(00:57:01) aslade: okay, so message for message?
(00:57:03) aslade: then you start
(00:57:24) sexyhalibut2: I was thinking more like just copy/paste the whole convo at once. we could do it the other way, though.
(00:57:56) aslade: hmmm... I think your way would be more reader friendly
(00:58:25) sexyhalibut2: yeah.
(00:58:25) aslade: perhaps you should? ...but could you change my sn to aslade instead of aslade?

yay! one post from the dark side and i've already got people screaming!!!

how do you like it?

[identity profile] ohthecuteness.livejournal.com 2004-02-06 09:48 am (UTC)(link)
I can actually post to LJ from work, so I was thinking about getting a paid account to do email posts... anything good or bad to report?

Re: how do you like it?

[identity profile] ktron.livejournal.com 2004-02-06 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
so far i've not played much... i like the e-mail posting -- as with matthew, that was the clincher -- and the extra userpics, but i think there's other nifty stuff that i have yet to discover. oh, and it's great if you're nosey like me... 117 users are registered as cookeville residents!

Hey, you're paying now! Estes might be looking for someone to syndicate his journal whenever he makes an RSS feed for it.

Related to that, caipirinha's are pretty tasty and easy to make, if you can find some cachaça.

Re:

[identity profile] ktron.livejournal.com 2004-02-16 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
tell 'im to give me a shout when he needs to...

and what, pray tell, is cachaça? so i'll know it if i see it? and, um, how in the hell are caipirinhas related?

It's a rum from Brazil made from sugar canes. Here's pictures of some bottles (http://www.internetwines.com/spirits-rumtemplate-cacacha.html). I found a bottle of Cachaça 51 at a shop today and bought it. Knowing my luck it's the Montezuma of cachaça.

For Caiparinhas take a lime and roll it around on a table to mush it up, cut it into segments, stick it in a glass and put in some brown sugar. Then mash the crap out of the limes/brown sugar, pour in the cachaça and fill the rest of the glass with crushed ice and stir.

While you drink it, you keep stirring and mashing the limes with a spoon. Or at least I do, 'cause I'm neurotic and need to do things with my hands.

On a related note, Mardi Gras parades have started!! I think I'm going to see my first one tomorrow. At least one person from Cookeville is coming here for Mardi Gras. SO SHOULD YOU!
