You know, I've seen turtles race, and they have y'all so beat.

Merr. Where's T?!

Poor H, trying to spring us into action.

I made barbecued shrimp last night. Y'all should have been here, alas, as no one ate but Mad Madeleine and me.

What? Is Master V crazy or something?

How much do I love that photo of T and me with our Spanish garlic shrimp. Truly was the best food ever.

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

I never got the picture! I'm not getting T's update e-mails either.

Master V was practicing, and Joey "I'm Crazy" Chao was at a pool tournament. Too bad for them.

I wish T were here to tell me what to do with the pound of shrimp sitting in the refrigerator.

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

Yay! T's not dead. Her internet is down.

AB - I'll forward you the photo.

Goody!

Y'all, Joey Chao forgot to pick up Madeleine from school Monday. I had to leave work and drive a billion miles an hour to get her. She was sitting in the office. Joey was asleep on the couch when we got home. I yelled a lot. Joey cried. Then I killed him.

Was Mad upset? Or is that normal for Uncle Hooknose?

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

Mad was fine, but I was crying and yelling and being a lunatic. Uncle Hooknose has done this once before. Stay tuned for the an bei update on it.

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

Uncle Hooknose is in serious need of a lifestyle change. What is wrong with him? Dude, he's depressed. And it's probably because his chemicals are WHACK because he lives like a damn vampire.

I'm anxiously awaiting An Bei update. And Lin Chao.

I must update tonight. Along with the 8 million other things I have to do.

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

That's what we finally got out of him, Al. He is depressed. I think he needs the Paxil.

I tried to call you that day, as if you could leave work and trot over to Duff Elementary, but your cell phone wasn't on. I was so desperate I called Jesse. Hee.

Update in about 5.

Al - how do you update at work if your dreamweaver is on your iBook?

AB, here is my work number: 817/ 462-6934

You know my cell phone is awful. Program that one in.

I'd be happy to do it anytime.

Update up. I think it's kind of crazy. Like, all jumbly and stuff. I don't care too much.

Thanks, Al. I rove you.

Best An Bei EVER. But dammit, Lin Chao said none of y'all like me. I cry now.

Yeah - you know half of what I do at work is on the web, so I use dreamweaver for work. I ftp into my site from here.

Ah. Don't have that.

And AB, I got your notify right away, unlike the time I got it 4 days later or some shit.

Al - T said she'll call you tonight for an ATL chat.

Lin Chao's kind of mean, you know. But she rove you, no worry.

I know, I've been getting them a lot faster lately too. T still hasn't signed up, the bad MATHerton.

I'm so hungry. Al, why don't you bring me a taco? Hee.

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

Where is T? She call me for ATL chat? I wait like tiger by phone.

AB, poor Joey Chao. I am worried about him. I hope he knows that you only kill him, because you love him.

I laughed like a loon at the end of your entry - JoAnn's favorite thing to say in the world, besides "I hate your daddy" and "I'm gonna kill you" is "I'll knock your head off."

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

My mother's was, "I will knock you into next Tuesday, girl." Master V has varied it with, "I'll knock you into next week and meet you on Sunday." I love that.

Oh my God, that is the best. I'll have to tell that one to JoLo.

People, Chris Huff has already applied for three jobs in Atlanta. The man is on a freaking mission.

(By the way, y'all know he has to get a haircut now, since he's got to go on job interviews. Heeeeeee! And he has to get a new suit. I'll be sure to take pictures. RIP, chord jacket.)

Mean old Al. I love his hair like that! We need a picture before he hacks it off.

I am STILL getting hits from pamie's March 30 entry, y'all. Insanity, I tell you.

Yeah, it's sad that he has to cut his hair, especially now that I really like it.

Wait. Since when do you like the hair?

Aw, Al, what great friends you have. You realize I have to plagairize that when T gets hitched, right? Cause it's exactly how I feel.

Really and truly. Master V brought it home last night, and I'm listening to it now, and having chills and stuff. I missed the old Ani. She's back.

Wait. Since when do you like the hair?

Since it grew out a little more. It looks much better now. It's a little long in the back, but it's cute. He said it was just going through a jag phase before and that's why no one liked it.

Yeah, I thought that was a sweet entry about Miss Wendy. Holly and I worked with her for years at Crabtree & Evelyn. She's having this big wedding out on a farm. The Red Mountain White Trash band is playing and people will be cooking and picking and grinning for days. I wish I could go.

I just got back from the best lunch ever at Whole Foods. I had this blackened chicken salad and it made my head spin, it was so good. I've about 50 oz of water today. I feel all healthy.

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

I missed the old Ani. She's back.

You and me both. But you just made me all happy, and the weirdest thing is that I'm listening to "Untouchable Face" right.now. It's the spirit of all that's right with Ani.

Did you see Benedict Jesse Grinter? He works there, you know.

Whole Foods is the best place ever. I could stand by their olives and sample them all day long.

It cracks me up that even the MOC's hair went through a jag phase.

Poor MOC and his jag phase. He regrets it mightily, now.

Did y'all see that "what are your daily visits" thread or whatever it's called in Blab? Every single one of MATH+1 got mentioned.

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

Yeah, but I got mentioned by Hannah, who doesn't count. But An Bei and HYD very popular.

Of course it counts. She also mentioned you on 3WA in "Underappreciated Journals."

I go run errand now. Be back later, gators.

No, she got back Monday a.m., but I guess her work internet has been down. She said it was supposed to go up by 2 today. Guess not.

She needs to get in here and help me with my Atlanta Panic!

OK, to distract me from the fact that I am moving to another state with the MOC, y'all help me come up with things to put in his Comps Care Package.

He takes them on Tuesday, so I have to mail it tomorrow. Besides cheese, what do you think should go in?

-- Anonymous, April 18, 2001

I know you'll disagree, but you have to send him Camel Lights. Send him a naked photo of you and a pair of panties.

That is all.

Maybe a photo of you in a pair of panties, smoking a Camel Light.

Oh, and wearing your hat of course.

Then I could give a copy to AB, who likes to see me smoke more than anybody. Never again, though!

Hell no, I'm not sending him a picture of me in my drawers. The hat, though, is a must. I have to find someone to take it. AB!

An excellent question, to which I have no answer. I'd guess not, though.

I work at 6 that night, so my exit strategy is in place. That's why I'm going. Maybe.

Where in the world is Allison Lowe? I'm trying to make her be bad with me tonight.

It didn't say anything that interesting. I'm having a killer time with that titlebar.

Thanks! Hopefully I'll be funny again tomorrow.

AB, now you'll never forget Flaya's birthday. Heh. And did you and Vince beat Joey senseless? Because I might have.

We made him cry, Mike. That's, like, a miracle. It felt incredibly satisfying. He's been so good, too. We're seeing how long it'll last.
