went to pub with boss, had two large glasses of wine, am clearly total lightweight and/or wine is reacting with excessive lemsip consumption because ended up having in depth conversation about bisexuality HELLO WITH MY BOSS and also revelation that boss had been married before current wife which is total secret but it's ok as none of you know him. also long discursion on the fact that i am single and the fact that my boss thinks that this is sick and wrong, which, well, bless, and also proves yet again my astonishing non-single person-specific mojo. yes. I AM MIGHTY.

then came back to the office to find missed call on mobile - unidentified mobile number, clearly (CLEARLY) no one exciting, but still, a poll:

[Poll #859597]

ETA bingo_mcdingo OMG WHO? You cannot tease me this way. Someone from NCC?

Also, my spam filter keeps filtering out actual emails, and yet failed to spot as spam something with the subject line "butt". Thanks, yahoo.

Maybe Yahoo didn't want to deprive you of possible important butt-related news?

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

That is kind of it, albeit unnecessary; I am well able to keep up with butt-related developments without yahoo's help.

I definitely need to introduce you to Ed, but he lives in Andover and is struggling with gf-he-can't-stand-cos-she's-stupid #10789. Hmm.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

OMG IS YOUR SECRET WHAT I THINK IT IS??????????

[sophiedb.livejournal.com]

*lol* sorry, I didn't check my email after about 3pm Friday so didn't see this until now, and I'm guessing that the answer is yes? twas also I who threw in the "I'm 8 weeks pregnant" on last week's anonymous thread :p

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

I actually didn't guess that the anonymous comment was you! But aaaaaaaaaah still so excited!

[chiller.livejournal.com]

ZOMG, call them back. NOW!

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

BUT RIGHT I can't. I am crap. Can I text them maybe?

[chiller.livejournal.com]

But why WHY can't you? Pop outside as if you were going for a fag break and do with teh callings!

I just had a missed call and did exactly this. Except, obv, I did actually smoke.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Because because what if it turned out to be someone exciting and then I would become gibbering and useless? I need to be PREPARED for telephonic engagement!

Anyway. Have sent text. It'll turn out to be my mum or someone.

[chiller.livejournal.com]

DOH! But you totally wouldn't be useless. It was probably one of those GIANT MENS FROM THE FUTURE.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

But I would! Perhaps this shows that I am not ready for the GIANT FUTURE MENS.

[chiller.livejournal.com]

Well, hopefully you will get a return text from the GIANT FUTURE MENS who tried to phone you, and then you can text back and it will all be cool.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAH god now I see why celibacy is so appealing. Cannot deal with stress.

[chiller.livejournal.com]

Awww! Don't stress. It's probably just a CRAP MENS FROM THE PRESENT. Or your mum. xx

i absolutely do not ever call back unknown missed callers. in my mind, everyone is a potential weirdo/stalker. if it's important, they'll call back and then we'll see.

or maybe it's a wrong number. i did call back a missed caller a few years ago, who explained that he was on holiday in portugal and got really arsey with me. but the number seemed to be that of a local business, so it seemed to have been set to redirect, and i still don't know why it happened, but ultimately calling him back was far more annoying than necessary.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

It normally would not even occur to me to call back unknown numbers, but then normally I do not give my number to random people who I vaguely hope will call me, so there's that.

Anyway, I texted in the end. No reply yet. Probably wrong number.

hey - good to chat Saturady - and thank you for what you said, too. Wise as ever.

I'm kind of assuming your old email address doesn't work? I've had to turn off my lj one, but if you don't have my proper one leaving a comment and then deleting it still reaches me.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Not sure which address you have for me, but both my lj ones work. Good to see you on Saturday, too - don't remember saying anything particularly wise, what with all the drinking etc., but I'm glad it came across that way!

[miss-newham.livejournal.com]

Hello! It was nice to meet you in the middle of the night, so I hope you don't mind me friending you, though I have an awful feeling I might have said something rude...

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

I don't think you said anything rude! But then I am mildly paranoid that I was deeply offensive myself. Gah, oops. Was great to meet you too, friending you back, anyway.

[biascut.livejournal.com]

Hey! You two are knowing each other! It's always weird when that happens.

[miss-newham.livejournal.com]

I approached the lady and said "Hello! You're a friend of biascut!", as far as I remember...

I still haven't met you after so many years! But you will insist on being in Non-London.

[bingo-mcdingo.livejournal.com]

Sorry to keep you hanging on - only just noticed your ETA.

I was at some horrible Local Area Agreement thing in London a month or so back, and there was a big delegation from Nottingham. Thing is, I have no recollection of who it was that knew you - I just made the connection (Community Safety, Nottingham & GO-EM), and asked. After a few blank faces, somebody (late 30ish black guy, well built) claimed you as his own, and related who you were to the others round the table (they all seemed to know you anecdotally at least), and said you were the one who was off travelling.

Nothing really exciting, and not really gossip, and certainly not worth waiting for. Sorry.

Aha! Tony Graham, maybe? Thank you, I have been dying of curiosity!
