That's really neat, seeing Chaz through the eyes of someone he knows from non-WTF related things. Tasha, I now approve of you lots.

Also, I'm so happy to be reading his LJ from the present time/future, because I might hexplode if I weren't. Yikes. You really know how to keep the tension going, even in the denouement. Well done. *applauds, with fingers whose mails are chewed to the quick*

Well, Chaz certainly approves of her. *g*

And thank you!

Confused now. This is Natasha, Chaz's recent ex-gf. Not Tasha, Daphne's fiancee and also Chaz's good friend. Right?

Daphne's fiancee is Tricia.

That was discussed at some length in his blog a while back. *g* When Tricia was telling Chaz he couldn't date Tasha because of her name.

Ah. Thanks for clarifying; apparently I am not good at names.

(Plus in the blogs, Tricia is most often referred to as T. So I'm still an idiot but not a completely blithering one.)

You're not an idiot at all. The names are quite similar.

It's really, really good.

AND I am developing suspicions about him, btw. SUSPICIONS.

Suspicions? *innocent* What sort of suspicions?

I mean, if you have Suspicions, you should share them on the BBS, to amuse the PTB so you can gloat when they turn out to be correct.

Well, I sort of started to do that when I first started having suspicions...

...and now they are growing...

....but I have to get caught up on some home things. I am putting things in place that should make me more organized and buy me evening internets time.

Oh no, I put out. *g* I'm EASY. I just need evening internets time.

Tuesday. Tuesday night. I have to go back and look at some things now and see if they all do hint at what they might hint at.

HEE!!!!!!

I am going to reread: last part of the finale, all LJ entries since finale, and I need to look at your icon. You know the one.

Mmmm hmmm.

*teasey teasey teasey****

It just makes it that much better when I finally give it up.

What, this icon?

or this one:

Sigh. (actually, I hate being teased*, but since I don't see any way to prevent it, I guess I have to wait until tomorrow to find out what the hell you are driving at.)

(*I also hate: surprises, anticipation, pending things, and not knowing how something's going to come out.)

The second one, dahling.

Regarding all of those things you hate? Pretty funny, given how much you do that to us, your loyal fans, ALLA THE TIME. IMJS.

I am pretty much the same way, though. The only kind of surprises I like are presents, and then only presents that do not Suddenly Require Performance. Schedule surprises are ABSOLUTELY OUT. Had to get that out with Montreal right up front. ("I love surprises. Wait. No, I don't. I hate them. I love PRESENTS. Do Not, Under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, show up at my home and whisk me away somewheres sekrit. I will hate. There will be anx.").

Storytelling is different--there's a contract.

Besides, we pay off on a regular basis. Name another show that burns story like we do.

I don't like surprises. Or presents, really. Too much baggage. Like birthdays and holidays, they have been ruined for me.

A trip to the climbing gym sounds like an awfully nice present, though. I hope you enjoy it. *g*

I'm really excited about the trip to the climbing gym, and the maps, not just for thmselves, but because he got them based on conversations NOT about things I want but about things I just like. The climbing came from talking about SU. We were doing something that had my anx up a little and I said, "Belay on?" and he said, "Do you climb?" Hee. And the maps were because I was gushing about the panel at Penguicon when y'all were talking about cities and maps and worldbuilding.

So, um, they were good because they were so apt, but not in an obvious way?

And I'm going to CLIMB. Well, prolly I'm gonna fall. But it will be fun.

And I'm just teasin' you for teasin' me about teasin'. Y'all deliver ALL of the TIME. Best show not on teevee.

I wasn't teasing, hon. *g* I don't like teasing, remember?

I was talking.

Montreal sounds like a good boy. I think I have boy envy....

He's very nice. And very, very tall. A little young but not too young (Not Randall Munroe young). He's actually my ex's cousin, not his brother, but they are so close as to be brothers. Puppy's Official Other Male Role Model.

You might like him. *g* Or you might not. But you said in your other post about dating we should let you know if we know anyone sort of local. I didn't then, but now I do. Well, almost do. Soonish.

(I don't play matchmaker. But he doesn't know anyone there, I don't think, either. So think of it not as matchmaking but rather as "Hey, a cool, cool person I know is moving to your area.")

(Also, it helps you because Puppy will want to visit so we will have to travel to the East Coast and I will visit you and bring you Zingerman's breads and nice wine and we will watch a movie).

Hee. These are good reasons.

Also, if I can help him get settled in, I'd be glad to. Depends on where he's moving to, of course. There are parts of this state that are perfectly mysterious to me.

Also, sounds like you need small, baggage free gifts on days unrelated to any actual holiday.

Holidays would be ruined for me if not for the Pupster, who ameliorates somewhat. This year? First birthday in 3 years that is not full of suck.

Yay!

You know, those still make me uncomfortable. The person who made my life a living hell between the ages of 8-21 was into gifts and/or withholding as control mechanisms, so the effective defense was not to want anything or expect anything. And various other Important People in my life have either been sulky and impossible to shop for, or prone to really passive-aggressive gifts, or prone to really intermittent reinforcement (not remembering several birthdays in a row and then suddenly making a big deal out of the next one) which has pretty much made the entire thing enormously distasteful for me.

Also, what I got for my 30th birthday was a layoff, a canceled trip home, and the immediate aftermath of 9/11, so.... fuckit.

I still like giving people things, when I can, but I just don't do the Expected Gift-Day thing anymore. Except for my mom, because it's really important to her: being remembered on her birthday, etc, is one of the things that makes her feel loved and appreciated.

That all makes TONS of sense.

Passive-aggressive gifting is just WRONG.

Yes, you sneaky tricksy PTB do in fact deliver, for which we love you.

Unfortunately, you're setting up stuff that may not pay off until Season Five, leaving us on tenterhooks (if not eleventerhooks or worse) for years. Waaah!
