skyedreamsinger: 	hey
evilE: oh, it did.
evilE: well, the msg I sent you first 	isn't showing up in the
box, but yours to me showed up.
evilE: 	and it's noisy. I don't see a way to turn the sound off
or 	down...
skyedreamsinger: no icq today?
evilE: it isn't 	working. There are 2 web based ones now, java
and flash, and 	whichever my 'usual' is won't accept my password. and
the new one 	keeps randomly booting me offline.
evilE: ANYWAY. How are you? 	Did your lesson show up yesterday?
skyedreamsinger: 	no
skyedreamsinger: which means more than half a days extra work 	today
skyedreamsinger: so from now on, no confirmation call, I 	won't be
there
evilE: sounds like a good policy.
evilE: Oh! 	I found something interesting this a.m. I was in the
mainframe 	looking at wage records & found out that X is working
for the 	Alamo Drafthouse these days
skyedreamsinger: ruins a perfectly 	good venue
evilE: I went with Sweetie on Sunday, and we had a 	fine time. I'm
pretty sure she wouldn't jeopardize her job by 	starting shit with a
patron
evilE: (didn't see her, btw. I 	think she may be working at the
Village or the Lakeline 	location)
skyedreamsinger: I am occasionally given to ponder the 	meaning
of "jerkmagnet"
evilE: ?
skyedreamsinger: 	just our general tendency to attract jerks
evilE: eh, I think of 	it more as a 'freakmagnet' than
a 'jerkmagnet'. Most folks I know 	are pretty OK.
skyedreamsinger: Sineater and I for the last year 	have just attracted
jerks.
skyedreamsinger: Jerky tenants, 	jerky employers in his instance
evilE: yup
evilE: at least in 	my personal life, I'm getting better at
keeping the jerks at a 	distance...I think. I hope.
evilE: as far as work goes...I think 	it's prison psychology at
work.
evilE: set up a particular 	environment and certain behavior
will result.
skyedreamsinger: 	I compiled and revised a 19 page handbook to bring
equestrian 	events officially to HFS for playtesting last night
evilE: cool. 	Will there be anyone with horses besides Mirage
and 	Jessie?
skyedreamsinger: eventually, maybe
evilE: 	cool.
skyedreamsinger: other HFSers have horses, I know, but so 	far
everyone tells me, "my horse wouldn't do *that*"
evilE: 	heh.
skyedreamsinger: slow, going back to finish what needs to be 	done on
Hugh's puter
evilE: OK
skyedreamsinger: I am 	currently away from the computer.
