We do get them live however... so no party poopers. <BR/>Maybe he should put up a warning on his IM that people really shouldn't tell him the outcome of the final. Oh, but the final is on Sunday- will you be able to watch it live?<BR/><BR/>Me, I think my friends consider me the person they can come to for hugs, food and the occasional shibuku (swift kick to the head).

With my engineering boys I'm the sassy over-sharing liberal, with my improv friends I'm the zealously rational decision making girl who sometimes holds back, with the roommates I'm the man whore. (This pisses me off hugely. At least I could be called a woman whore!) <BR/><BR/>I guess they're all true to a certain level. I'm all of those things, but certain straights seem stronger in comparison when I'm with certain people. For example, maybe all my improv friends are sassy manwhores, so by comparison, my strongest distinguishing trait is being rational and cautious. I don't know.<BR/><BR/>But I do think you are a fantastic voice of reason. You always know exactly what to say to calm me down and make me think clearly. You're quickly becoming my go-to blog friend for all my life's troubles!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07850950399622401385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-6328260743965842202008-06-26T10:33:00.000-06:002008-06-26T10:33:00.000-06:00Mine, I think, is that I'm always, always up for a...Mine, I think, is that I'm always, always up for a good time. Which I can be, but I definitely have my moments where I just want to be chill or hole up at home and not deal with anyoneeeee. So then I'll feel guilty if I take that bit of me time or lame time or whatever.

I mean, his friend is in a place where EVERYONE already knows the score. Why would she assume he wouldn't already know it. And if he didn't want to know it, should he have pre-warned everyone who might let him know? It doesn't change the matter that he found out in an unfortunate way, but I guess it'd be hard for me to be THAT mad at his friend who innocently wanted to share an exciting moment with him.Nilsa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11960351638623857751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-73218639335969529132008-06-26T08:28:00.000-06:002008-06-26T08:28:00.000-06:00I would feel bad for Torsten, but I don't think I'...I would feel bad for Torsten, but I don't think I'd be mad at the friend...She didn't know.
