tanaiseI used the phrase "happy dance in honor of me" an awful lot this vacation.
Usually in public. Often with the accompanying happy dance.
Oh, and of course, I go and talk with Taken Boy here, and he tells me he's found my Radiohead CD. See, way back when he first started--ie, November or so of 2000, I lent him the Bends. And he lost it. He had the case, but he couldn't find the CD anywhere. And he looked everywhere, and defragged his CD collection several times (where you go through the CDs, and move them back into the appropriate cases, not the cases that were closest to the CD player when you changed CDs.), and couldn't find it anywhere. So after awhile I really missed the CD, but I'm lazy and hate spending full price on things, so I just put it on my amazon list to remind myself of that and kept looking for in second hand stores. And then Mousie got it for me. And I was all excited again, and meant to tease him that he didn't need to give it back anymore, but he was out of the office whenever I'd go by. So I couldn't. And I go in today, cause I knew he was there and it had been ages and ages since I'd talked to him (they moved his office, and I don't get to see him anymore), and we're talking for a bit, and then lo and behold he's like, "I had your CD all along." He'd thought it was a different one, one of his girlfriend's. So she put it in this weekend, and it wasn't it at all. :) I knew this would happen, it's why I didn't buy it for so long. :) He's now guilty, and says he'll have to think of something to do to make it up for me.

I could never understand the putting cds in the wrong cases thing. Human beings do the strangest things.
