Sending your kind thoughts like this is a wise move and doesn't send the wrong message.

Oh, and a belated Happy Birthday & Congrats on the new house! Welcome to the joys of debt homeownership. :-)

Yep, I'm older now... wayfarer_atlas January 10 2007, 16:44:52 UTC
Thank you. I'm not quite in the 'joys of debtorship' crowd yet. Soon.

I must admit, I didn't expect this post to be answered by you or battle_ax. I was just thinking out loud.

While I was house-hunting, I looked at a house that was oddly familiar. It was exactly the same design as yours and Kevin's place. It was priced OK, but in an odd location, so I gave it a pass. Just thought I'd share that.

I'm curious - in that I'm not aware of any message being sent. Certainly, I had no intention of sending any message. I just kinda like doing things like that. But I think you're right in that a message would have been 'received' by V. The girl make some strange assumptions and then doesn't go back to test them properly. Then again, I guess we all do that sometimes.

Thanks for the virtual flowers! What a nice thought. You are right that coming to the office would have been awkward.

Congrats on your new house! What a great b-day present to yourself.

I was thinking this year it would be Origami flowers... wayfarer_atlas January 10 2007, 16:47:39 UTC
Thank you. Yes, it was a very good day. Enlightening in many ways. But I have more news about the house that I'll put into a new post.

I should clarify. I actually had no intention of going to the office myself, but rather I would've had the flowers delivered. Before Dec 30th, I would have avoided the office out of discomfort to myself. Since the morning of the 30th, the reason changed to not wanting to add to V's mental stress. Apparently she still has a number of issues to work out. I wish her good fortune in doing so, but admit that I wouldn't hold my breath on the matter.

Happy New Year to you and kathyrhino. May this year shine as brightly for you as I believe it will for me. And say hi to the hubbies for me, too.
