Default OMG I insulted a friend.

Ok, its one of those days. I have a HORRIBLE cold, and have felt crappy for days. fevers, and sore throats, and my to do list is growing by the hour. I had a horrible time sleeping last night, and had bad dreams, night sweats, and so on. I woke to find my email box FULL (74) of Angel emails, please forward this to 20 people in 20 minutes or 20 people will die. Please click on xyx website to cure global warming (I am buried in SNOW!) dont you care about the starving children in africa? (what about american children?) and the like. the Maxine the queen and cute puppies, and all the like. I was FLOORED! 74 flipping emails! I am extremely visually challenged, and it was upsetting.

The lead email was from a church woman I know. We are not best buds, but I have had some respect from her. I cleaned out the church computer yesterday, and gave her my email address so that she could contact me if anything else goes wrong. Well, she sent out BLANKET emails of crap! then her friends got me on their address books, and I got their crap! and so on, and so on. I sent a reply to ALL. announcing that I am extremely visually challenged, and while I appreciate all of the humor, and concern floating across the world, to pepper my in box with angel emails, and global warming email creates a HUGE amount of work for me, AND it exposes me to everyone on their address book. Most people dont take care to BCC folks, and protect their friends from their friends. I blathered on and said that I tend to be PROactive about Mother Earth, instead of being REactive to the media hype that has so many living in a FEAR based society. If you have found my name on YOUR address book, and have NO reason to contact me, PLEASE remove me!

My friend wrote me this letter about how I embarrassed her to the rest of HER addressed friends, and I should have replied to HER privately. (she didnt think of replying to ME privately when she sent this crap out!) So, she expressed how hurt she was that I chose to lash out at her. An hour later, I get a call from the pastor that I really hurt her feelings, and would I consider an apology!!!??! Is she kidding!?! So, I laid into the pastor, to tell her that I am recovering from ON, and how insensitive it was for this person to expose me to so many strangers with their boxes full of angels, and starving children. I refused to apologize, and asked the pastor to please reveal to this woman just how much harm can be done to a personal computer when your name starts swirling in unknown circles!

So, not only did I hurt a nice lady, I chewed out a pastor! Im going to H E double hockey sticks...you just gotta know that.

I am tired of the box full of crap! If you were truly thinking of me, you would have written me a letter, or an email TO ME! not some blanket thing. sheesh!

Ok, i need chocolate. wheres the chocolate?!
