Let us find clean and cheerful friends.

Carlos Pollomar (WmC), Saturday, 10 March 2012 22:20 (1 year ago) Permalink

good call. let's!

how clean? do I have to inspect them somehow?

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 11 March 2012 02:36 (1 year ago) Permalink

Good question. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't pass a clean-friends test, unless it just meant "not on smack."

As an enthusiast of repetitive music, motion, and menus, I endorse this message.

Hmm, sneering, condescending elitism for me -- I wonder if I'll make it through the day alive.

The tape is now the music

Carlos Pollomar (WmC), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 17:15 (1 year ago) Permalink

are you sure the year is correct?

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 19:50 (1 year ago) Permalink

Ha, I hadn't thought of that. I wonder what other anachronisms are in the cards.

Carlos Pollomar (WmC), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 19:58 (1 year ago) Permalink

I like it! Noises and music are all around us, even in the tape.

Laura Lucy Lynn (La Lechera), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 20:01 (1 year ago) Permalink

I took 'tape' to mean 'tapeworm.' As in "The tape (tapeworm) is now the music."

Worry about it for 2 weeks and then call me in tears for an emergency pep talk?

Laura Lucy Lynn (La Lechera), Friday, 16 March 2012 15:02 (1 year ago) Permalink

Alternately, stay myopically focused on her chosen goal and don't stop working on it until it's done regardless of sleep/food/human interaction deprivation?

wouldn't do it, would quit job

i'm glad this one is more of a question to ponder and not a command

- do it, and do it well...and then wait for friends/coworkers to tell her what an amazing job she's done, get mad that no-one's praising her enough and start on a campaign of telling random acquaintances about this great thing she did
