I don't think I even know what your interests/choices/discipline is/are.

As for the online geekfest, well, if I had known, you could've paid Vin a visit again. Sorry, didn't know. :(

I don't think I even know what your job is, exactly.

I envy you. You live with two attractive, single women with whom you seem to get along quite well. ;)

Yeah, I'll second the good wishes for your family. Although I didn't know your mother had health troubles.

... why is it that so many people seem to use LJ as procrastination for things they don't really want to do?
