“So…
We thought it would be cool to get a cat for the office, but we needed a litter box, and there wasn’t really room in the bathroom, so we put it next to these servers in the back, and everything would have been fine, but the A/C repair guy was allergic and the cat reacts badly to loud noises and there were all these wires hanging back there and a bunch of surprisingly flammable packing material…
Erik thought it would be JUST AWESOME to put a paperclip on the end of a rubber band and shoot it at Vinay’s eye, and it would have just been Erik and Vinay’s problem except Vinay had a cup of coffee and was standing over James, who was fixing our router at the time…
Anyway, we’ll have things back up soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Our eyes met, and you didn’t smile, you didn’t speak, you didn’t move closer.. away, away you moved.
I kept thinking, hoping you’d come back and talk to me.. and you didn’t.. and in that moment, I felt a small part of my heart crack, I really, honestly, literally did. It hurt so much, and I was left to stare.
You can’t leave my life the way you did, and come back, and expect me to be happy about it.
Neither of us are the same people we were four years ago.
We will never be.
And as much as I miss you..
My life is better off without you, as is my heart.
It hurts me to say that, but I need to.
I can lie and say I don’t miss you at all,
but chances are, I probably always will.
Miss the person you used to be.
Because when we’re around each other now,
even on good terms,
it still hurts me.
I hope you realize that I don’t hate, or even dislike, you.
(I just don’t know what to say anymore.)
So I’m watching the South Park Christmas special with Charles Manson… and its making me pretty happy, or at least cheered up some.
I don’t think this post will be very long.
I feel very tired.
I adore you, and I’ll write more on that later, albeit a protected post.
