I just wrote a facebook note about making small talk and I tried to paste it here but Blogger didn't like that. I think it's another anit-mac attack. Booo. The gist was that I saw this comic  and realized that I often consider how best to approach this situation. I have to walk a fine line between speaking the social language and refusing to engage in meaningless conversation. Maybe this gets me in trouble when I don't realize it... 

We had a (planned) fire at (Jim/Anna/Kristie/Matt)'s last night; I smell happily of wood smoke. I have been working all day on math homework and I have to go to Friday's soon. It's a drab day, which makes going there a little easier. 

Now I am going to play the guitar, which I haven't done in a while. Check out the permanent link to xkcd if you like. It's geek humor though, so you don't have to get it if you don't want to.
