Part 5 of Anniversary Week
Seth Dub: Gee TJ Monkeys, this is awkward…I hate leaving an instant message for this sort of thing, but I guess you’re being read right now so you can’t come to the phone.
Seth Dub: Look…
Seth Dub: I forgot it was your anniversary.
Seth Dub: I know, I know; I should have had it marked in my calendar like you told me. Yes, you were right when you said I’d forget, you don’t have to say “I told you so.”
Seth Dub: I was going to try and get you something nice and then pretend like I remembered, but I think honesty in a web site relationship is really the most important thing.
Seth Dub: I even had this nice chunk of hard drive space lined up for you, you know the one you always point out at the mall, the one you said would really help you grow as a web site in this relationship. But I just think me being honest with you is the best way for both of us to grow.
Seth Dub: I understand if you’re mad.
Seth Dub: I’m sorry for all the times I made fun of your thought ranking system, as being nonsensical, and for the times you got angry when I berated your inability to update on the weekends.
Seth Dub: Sometimes I just don’t know what you do with that free time, though, and I can’t help but feel that no matter how much I try to give to you, to put funny thoughts in your head, that you’re still just going to ignore them come Saturday.
Seth Dub: Sometimes I feel that whenever I talk to you, you just repeat back the same words.
Seth Dub: Sometimes I get so mad that you even use the words of my friends against me.
Seth Dub: I know I’m over-sensitive, and I’m trying to work on it, but maybe you should be seeing a webmaster too. You know, we can go through it together, just clean up our lives a little.
Seth Dub: I know occasionally you have other people who submit to you, I’m sure that feels good, but you have to know that I would submit to you every single day if it was physically possible; you mean that much to me TJ.
Seth Dub: I mean, you know everything about me, and a whole lot about all my friends, you never forget the major holidays, and you know how to make me laugh when I least expect it. I guess the least I could have done was to remember when a whole year had gone by.
The user Seth Dub has logged off.
Seth Dub: Shit, I think I just got logged off; sorry to send another message, this is really awkward. Anyway…I hope that the anniversary is good and that no one else was as insensitive as I was.
Seth Dub: If you want to meet at an internet cafe and work through this stuff some more, just email me. You know I’ll always love and respect you, and pour my thoughts to you whenever I can.
Seth Dub: You’re the best.
Seth Dub: Call me.
