twenty-six january gossip and metagossip Had to get a new monitor tonight - that flickering back and forth from yellow to white (I described it a while back) was finally getting to me, and it made it impossible to edit graphics. Problem was, when I got back with the monitor, I was too tired to edit graphics. I started, then said "bah" and now I'll probably just go surf websites until bedtime. Aedie is back on hold; he got 6000 words on Sunday, which is a lot in one sitting, and that melted my brain. - - - It's a pity when you want the gossip on someone because you always liked that person, and you have only just now gotten the implication that other people do not like that person as much as you do, and you're wondering what you missed. Urgh - I apologize for that sentence. Even if you're not going to spread the gossip, not going to tell anyone, including the person in question ... even if it's only to satisfy your own curiosity ... there is no graceful way to ask. And I hate not knowing. More so, I hate the idea that there is some time bomb waiting to strike me that I don't know about - is this person secretly psychotic and I'm just blissfully unaware? (Actually, I already know that the person I have in mind isn't the most stable individual on the planet, but I hardly consider her a threat to my well-being, or anyone else's for that matter.) I'll just put it out of my head now. And no, it's none of you. Nor would I tell you if it were. - - - Got a comment about how nasty Nair is from Xeney, which I knew - its active ingredient is a caustic alkaline, what did you expect? But I did a patch test and proceeded with considerable caution, in slow stages. No skin has fallen off yet. The question is: What will happen after I use it a few times? Jette thinks I should get my legs waxed - did I mention that already? She keeps insisting it doesn't hurt nearly as badly as everyone always says it does. Certainly there are plenty of places in Boston that'll do it for me; I know, I saved an article on hair removal methods that appeared in the local gay newspaper last year. All in all, I'm surprised at the number of comments I received about my body hair. I never know what will put mail in my mailbox, but I'm always delighted to get it. - - - More randomness in the morning, I should think. I need to turn my brain off now.
