Tech Speak

Had a really damn good IM conversation with the Beth the other day. She posted a portion on her blog, so I'm going to follow suit.

Her: some people think i'm a snob
Me: because you don't talk?
Her: yeah, i'm really just terrified
Me: people think i'm a snob because i talk to much in class
Her: people scare me
Me: i'm one of those people
Me: the ones that talk
Me: people scare me but i like them so much
Me: it's a damned dichotomy
Her: i've been told i come off as thinking i'm too good for people
Me: yeah
Me: i get that sometimes
Her: you know the word "dichotomy", that probably intimidates people too

Me: yes, but you were doomed with being conscientious
Her: yeah and i can't even spell it!
Me: i didn't think i could but i did
Me: i was impressed
Her: good job
Her: kudos to you
Her: if we played baseball i'd smack your ass

Me: i'll have to stop having crushes on people
Me: that'll help tremendously
Her: yeah, go ahead and try that one
Me: heh
Her: trust me, doesn't work
Me: ....damn
Me: then i must work on confidence, because the i'm-talking-like-i'm-about-to-pee-myself-thing isn't working
Me: ::nods::
Her: hahaha
Her: yeah, crawling into the hypothetical shell isn't a great strategy either
Me: nobody sees me do that and says to themselves, "Damn! Thaat is Hot!"

I went crackalackadingdong about a week ago. Apologies all.
