Odd day.

While having lunch with my boss I heard my name and looked to the booth next to us, where [livejournal.com profile] hairboy was sitting. He is a friend of my ex-fiancee and it was surprising to see him. The last time I saw him was, hmmm, three years ago, and before that...six years? five years? Thank goodness my brain didn't decide to suddenly go blank and refuse to retrieve his name, as it is wont to do in some situations.

I've noticed that people sometimes have to trim their f-lists. (I'm still learning the ropes here, forgive me.) I wonder how they manage to do it and not hurt people's feelings. I may be new to LJ, but I used to help run a BBS years ago, and was fairly active in the local BBS scene, and if there's one thing you notice, it's that people can be a bit sensitive in cyberspace. Without the very real physical presence of a person in front of you sometimes it seems as if you have nothing holding you back. And it's so easy to shout at each other in all caps. I still remember the first time I got into an altercation online (and even what it was about!), and that was a crazy experience.

Anyway, this is looking to be a fairly random LJ entry, so I might as well include two more odd high school poems. (The poems are odd, not the high school.)

Okay, it can't compare to [livejournal.com profile] snapesforte's lovely sonnets, but I was only fifteen at the time after all.

I am leaving Saturday for WI, will be back Monday...I have so much to do...WHY AM I ONLINE?!! Oh, avoidance. That's right.
