Happy birthday!!

[espigeonage]

Thanks! lol. Last year I made all these plans for the day, this year I kind of suspected it wouldn't be so good. lol, what a pity, hu?

[angelskills]

There's still time! Once you're feeling better you can do everything you planned.

[espigeonage]

It'd be nice! This is one of those extras I don't think helps anyone. Worse than pointless! But better me than someone else, I guess.

[angelskills]

I'm sorry. I'm just... I'm sorry this is happening to you. No one should have to deal with something like this. Especially not around such a special day.

[espigeonage]

Lol, I happen to agree! But thanks. Just, careful, I'm trying not to get into self pity. Once you start it's kind of hard to wuit. quit. Better to keep smiling, right?

[angelskills]

Yes. Please do your best. Things tend to work out for the best in the end!

[espigeonage]

With work, or luck or both, yeah. Wish me luck, sweet Colette?

[angelskills]

Of course. Good luck!!

[espigeonage]

Thanks.

Hah, so what do you do? I'm out of college and mostly pretty much play tech support in an office.

[angelskills]

I'm in college at the moment, but I work in a tea parlor when I'm not attending class. I haven't picked a major yet -- I'm not really sure what I want to do.

[espigeonage]

A tea partlor, huh? Think I've seen a few of those here. Care to hint which one it is?

lol, jut be careful, it's easy to rack up the debt and not have much to show for it.

[angelskills]

Well, it's named after a flower! I think we were originally intending to be a florist before getting into tea. Can you guess?

You're right. I'll try to pick something soon!

[espigeonage]

Think so! I haven't been there more than a few times, but I like tea fine. You should watch out for me if things turn out pretty okay. I'm one of those hipsters with dyed hair and glasses.

lol, oit's easier said than did. Good luck.

[angelskills]

I'll be sure to. When you get better you should come by. I can properly wish you a happy birthday then.

[ Not "if" - when. ]

Thank you so much. I'll do my best! I don't want to wrack up any unnecessary debt. I'll be paying it all off myself, so I'd like to avoid it.

[espigeonage]

Sounds like a plan, pretty maid.

It's no fun at all! lol you're probably smarter than I was. I basically went "oh I'll worry about that later".

[I want to put him in her log, but I think he'd have to take another day or so past the 26th to recover. Okay to set something a bit later?]

[angelskills]

Eheh, I'm actually not very smart. My grades are pretty average! Probably below average, actually... there are some very amazing people in the University.

[ Sure thing!! :D ]

[espigeonage]

Uni tends to draw smarter people than local high schools and so on, so anyone smart feels dumber suddenly. It's all contextt and contrast! Plus there's kinds and kinds of intelligence.

[angelskills]

I never really thought about it like that before...

You're right. Everyone is different! Not everyone is great with taking tests or writing papers.

[espigeonage]

lol, I had a prof who talled about it in an orientation thing. "You might be smart bak home, but here you're average!" etc.

If you got in and it's not about sports or someone else's money, there must be something you're doing right.

[angelskills]

Thank you. I'll remember that! Sometimes it's easy to forget that everyone is working hard.

[espigeonage]

yeah.

oh souhds like someone's here. Wish me luck (again)!

[angelskills]

Oh, good!! Good luck!
