And I’m sorry for the rant. It was just an extraordinarily frustrating day. Thank you for coming by with the roses & card, though. It was very sweet of you and the roses are really beautiful! ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Shayna \* > \*\*Hi **Ruffian**!! Woo Hoo - it’s so great to see you! So whatcha up to, girlfriend? > ? \*\* I’ve been around, girl, just more lurking than anything. I’ve wanted to do DopeFest stuff but haven’t been able to get out much lately. I had bronchitis at the last DoperFest, was well for a week or so , then got a lovely UTI (during parent conference week, of course), and then had a gnarly cold for Thanksgiving. Wheeeeeeeeee! (See what happens when you ask how I’m doing?) But now, I seem to be well. \ Married life rocks. Just put up our 1st Xmas tree yesterday. Have had 2 flat tires in 2 weeks–on new tires. Teaching is going great now–the weird over-reacting-bitching-out coworker has been apologetic and seems sane now. Blah blah blah. Regardless of all that truly Mundane Stuff I shared, let’s get together some time for, uh, something. Keep me informed–as I come to the boards fairly erratically, Email me at the address linked here for any thing that comes up, k? Hooray for the roses and happy ending! 🙂 ---

Gee, **Shayna** your problems sound nearly as bad as what kept me away: either food poisoning or a 24-hour flu, I’m not sure which. Thank goodness for Pepto-Bismol. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/l-a-dopers-dinner-and-a-movie/92333.md?page=4)
