Forms

Alright, confessional.

I did something I thought I'd never do. Forgive me, for it has been a long time since my last confessional. My most recent crime against humanity: form letter to friends. I know it doesn't sound that bad, but it gets worse.

I've been really busy lately. SLPTG and I doing stuff, working, you know, the usual. Well, in my e-mail inbox, I keep recent e-mails from friends to remind me that I need to write them. Guilt. It's a wonderful motivator, but guilt will only take you so far, and there are only 24 hours in my day (I'm working on that, though). So, I've had these messages in my inbox staring at me for like the past three weeks. I know, three weeks isn't that long to go between writing. Hell, there are some people I don't even write to every three months. Well, I try to be better with these folks.

So, I pen a quick 140 words or so to a friend, and I get to the end, and I say, "huh, that's pretty good. I should send that to so and so." Well, instead of cc'ing it (come on, I'm not a heathen), I copied it, sent the message, then pasted it in a new message, as though it was written over again. Sweet Jesus, that was easy. I sent out five or six of them, but, crap I felt guilty. Plus, I didn't want to get greedy and have some overlapping. Greed. Didn't want to get outted by greed.

So, if you get an e-mail from me that's pretty non-descript, non-commital and looks like it could be a form e-mail. I'm doing my best. Really, I am. No, really, I am.
