Oh I do apologise, I misread the above posts - I thought you were advising “Think once, post twice”.
God, I’m funny!

**jjimm** : I presume that was “think once, post twice?”
Heh heh heh.

I know you asked for no hugs so I apologize in advance 🙂
**(((Guinastasia)))**
FWIW I think your an incredibly smart, intelligent, kind and yeah, sometimes snarky young girl, but that’s what makes you _you_.
Sorry your summer sucks. Sorry your job sucks too. Hang in there and I’m keeping you in my prayers.

> I guess december does deserve a targeted apology. Yet, this is borderline: since he has not reposted his “gay marriage announcements: good” thread in Great Debates I am beginning to think it was his intention all along to provoke a poster to jump at him, Do know that I will still think his dubious good OP was an oddity compared to his recent posts._\*
Actually…yes he did. [A link for you.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=131589) And a very well written OP in that thread I should point out.

As for appologizing to **december** , I’ve done so in his new GD thread. Also, this wasn’t really an appology to him specifically-rather, I mean this in general, because that wasn’t the only instance I’ve been such a shit.
I don’t want to whine, or ask for sympathy. I don’t want it. What I WANT is to get out of this house and do something.

Guin, you can’t get out of the house and do something if you’re posting on the boards.
Now get the fuck outta that damn house. Suck it up, gas up the car, drive 1 1/2 hours outside of town, turn around, and drive back.

I was going to start a thread about that, but then I thought better of it.

Now, don’t turn into another **december** , **Nanook!** 😉
notice that **december** posted the new Great Debates thread 6 hours after I posted.
Just keeping you honest! 😉
[sub]Actually, I realized some other dopers could think I posted without looking at GB.[/sub]
And of course: Well done **Guinastasia**!

Ihear you,lucky for me school starts monday and I will soon tire/stress out back to my usual “too stressed to be bitchy to strangers” moods.
Hope you find something that you can do, have you thought of volunteering some time somewhere (old people, children, animals…) it won’t pay but it might give you some mental stimulation and take the edge off.

**Guinastasia** , you’ve never made it anywhere damn near my LoDWAoMBA (List of Dopers Who Are or May Be Arseholes). I took you for being older than you are too, judging by your posts. Right in the first assessment, wrong in the second. Either way, no worries!
I don’t like cyberhugs either, so I’ll jab you with evil, spiky, pointy things. }}}} **Guin** {{{ 😃

Hey, LoadedDog, have I ever been on your list of arseholes? If not, I can try a lot harder.
And Guin… I LOVE you. Just stop posting so much. I got an ego to maintain here, love.

You see, at the time I read your post it did exist. Yeah thats it.
Ok, you’re right, I should have checked the post times. But it still was useful for anyone else reading the thread.

Geez, **guin** , sounds like you need a vacation… like a road trip around North America…
If only there was a large group of intelligent and friendly people who you already knew who you could stop and visit and probably bum a sofa off spread all over the US and Canada. You know, people on some sort of internet message board, perhaps…
Everyone who thinks that **guin** should spend the next year being the SDMB’s first roving reporter/tourist/houseguest, raise your hand…

Well, hey, thanks you guys!
At any rate-I got a letter from Dr. Brett that was sent out to alumni the other day. In a year or so, the Masters program will be in effect, AND…they’re expanding the history department and starting an alumni newsletter.
so, maybe I can take a few classes on the side…

I just wanted to pass along my sympathies and let you know I’m feeling frustrated, too. As for something constructive, since I’ve now got more time on my hands than I used to, if you like, shoot me an e-mail, and we’ll both get ourselves out of the house and either compare miseries or get our minds off them.
