You know you've worked with the navy too long when...

One of my co-workers mentioned going down to North Carolina for a christening the sunday, and I asked him what ship that was.

After getting past the initial surprise, he pointed out that, obviously, people christen babies too. At which point I asked him "but wouldn't the champagne bottle hurt?"

I'm just really wiped today. I drove 250 miles on tuesday without much trouble, and yet couldn't drive twenty minutes to the store yesterday. (Settled on a closer, crappier store.) And today at work, I am just really dozing.

Did want to re-iterate my genuine enjoyment over the fun, fun NYC weekend. Most people were pretty much what I expected of them, though generally even cooler. Except for odd cases like dherblay, who for some reason, I assumed was Iranian. And sistakaren, who I somehow thought would be taller. But as a whole, people were funny and cool, and chill, and a good time was had by my drowsy, drowsy self.

Completely agree with you! I so enjoyed meeting all of the gang again, and adding new members (like you) to the growing group of ATPOers and LJ users I have met in person. It was a great, great time.
BTW, I never did manage to tell you how much I liked your "Bakery" fic. Kept meaning to, then got distracted. It was the first post "Chosen" fic I read, and it's lodged in one of my huge fanfic printout binders. P.S. I added you to my friends list.

Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed my little writing project. It was my own little way of sort of puzzling out how I might want to see characters and the story go, and I do like hearing when people can get with that idea,
