Confessions.

Confessions.

I am committing adultery. With every single web-designer the company has ever had. I don’t know what it is. The nerdiness? The laughing? The way that I don’t listen to a word they say, responding with ‘ah’, ‘uh-huhn’ and ‘oh, gotcha’ and then once the thing they were explaining to me goes live, asking ‘Now, what the hell is this?!’  I think part of it is the surprise of it all.  I don’t bother with technical jargon (as it’s for poor people) and I barely (as mentioned above) care to listen, but once I’m in it, once I’m actually on the site, within the csm, face to face with the php, I get it and love it.  And that makes me love the nerds that made it possible.  (Is narcissism a mental disorder? Cause I may be suffering.)

The other thing I’m committing is grand larceny.  But the kind where you didn’t realize you’d stolen it until after you’d left the store and sold the book-rights. It’s essentially this Best New Party Game but instead of FirstDraftLines, it’s GrossExaggerationOfClassicMovieQuotes.

Cool Hand Luke: “Do you know what I think it is that we are experiencing at the moment? It is in essence the inability for each of us to understand what the other is attempting to convey.”

Cat on a Hat Tin Roof: “My name is Maggie and based on my features and sensual nature, the genus I fall into is feline.”

Rocky: “Excuse me, Adrienne? Are you there?”

Poltergeist:  “It appears they have returned!”

Jaws: “After assessing the situation, I’ve come to the conclusion that the ocean vessel we currently have isn’t large enough.  Perhaps we should look into purchasing one with more cubic feet.”

Everybody play!
