Also, I logged into Gmail tonight and sorted through my unreads (mostly marked them all as read blindly, since I've been reading them at Yahoo). I had like 988 unreads, which would be since January? when I lost Gmail completely.

God, I miss Gmail. It's so much better than stupid ass Yahoo.

How do you lose gmail? No longer allowed work access?

Work blocked it. They did not, however, block Yahoo, nor did they block any of the other Google sites (like Google Docs), so I think they were really just screwing with me.

That is made of fail.

You should protest. I'll make signs. And create a blow up doll to hang on a mobile noose like some weirdo in my city did on a street corner. Hell, I'll just beat him up and take his sign. I'll just cross out parenting and write in gmail. Also, I should not be allowed to say anything before my first cup of tea because I come up with weird shit like this.

That's really just bizarre.

I actually DID protest -- since I'm in school part-time, I thought I could totally get exempted on the angle that "I have to be able to check my personal email at work for class reasons", but they vetoed me.

There really was a man who did that. Canadians come in all flavours.

Is there anyway you could cheat? Type in mail.google.com instead of gmail.com?

Tried. Unfortunately. I can even get to Google's "My Homepage" and SEE what's in my Inbox, but when I click on it the filter kicks in. They really are jerks.

Gmail does have an option to forward all e-mails to a different address - is how I still get messages from my old address when I never log in. Maybe get all your gmail stuff forwarded to yahoo? You may have to not be at work to set that up, though.

That's actually what I do now, so that I can continue to be distracted at work. I just miss Gmail's setup; it's so intuitive and useful. Yahoo's isn't as convenient (no conversation stacking, no labeling), and I miss the organization.

Oh, okay. Yeah. I never even bothered with Yahoo; I jumped right from hotmail to gmail when the former decided it was okay to not let me be able to delete my emails. I tend to think everything not-gmail is gross now.

Yahoo just works like a regular email, which is fine, unless you've used Gmail before and you know how damn awesome it is.

Also, it's hella slower. Although maybe by now it's fighting some serious work filters or something.

Truly a battle that should be fought with lightsabers.

And maybe ninjas.

Ninjas with lightsabers. Oh, and a pirate that says 'arr'.

Also? Totally sent off Mercy.

I love you tons! There's fic in your name, whatever you want!

Oh wow! Um...

I'll have to think about this! The great Sev writing a fic for me! :D :D

Just let me know. Until then I have a lot of crack left to write, but people who send me tasty books always win!

Mmmm, crack.

Okay, I've decided! FFX. A monster infects Yuna and co., making them all... talk like Wakka. No amount of Esuna will help, and they quickly discover that the infection is airborne... only after infecting half of Luca.

....

I love you even more. XD

Awww! :D I am quite lovable.

However, I can't take all the credit. The idea was initially surmised by the triumvirate of Katy, Jamie and I when I was playing FFX in Katy's apartment.

I've written a piece on Tidus, Wakka, and hair gel, if that will tide you over for the moment: Brotherly. Old work, and you can tell, but still crack nonetheless.

Whee! Yay!

Awww, that is so awesome! You are probably unaware of the extent of my Tidus love, but that made me squee.

Gmail always tells me to invite you to gmail, I think it's being cruel.

That really isn't very polite, Gmail!
