Once again it's been a few days since last post. The internet at my house is still the saddest joke I have had the pleasure of interacting with, but I'll say it again, it's better than nothing. I got to have a good conversation with my mom yesterday. I don't think we talk as much as we should, especially considering our distance physically, but I

No worries on the Beebs scenario. I dont think she would ever start a live journal, although I would be pleasantly suprised if she did. She enjoyed the conversation that you guys had the other night, even if she was a little scared that her lack of interest in political or religious issues would create a gap between you guys and her. I re-assured that the topic of conversation is just an honest way for you guys to really get to know each other, as if conversely, you had spent an hour talking about ani difranco or ben kweller it may have been more socially comfortable, but the meat of the conversation would have been as much as she could have with a customer at her store. I think she saw the light in this, but still has a fear that there will be a gap in our social situations. I was wondering if you, special K, had any fears about James and I getting back in touch with each other when we did a few years ago? Was there any response, founded or not, that you were worried I may take him away from you in any sort of way? I'm just curious because she is sooper supportive of the entire endeavor, but I still want to do my part if I can to banish any fears she might have.

Nothing but LOVE.

the only thing i was scared of with you and james getting back in touch was that you would respond to me like pat and minto did. which would be to pretend i wasn't there and never involve me in the conversations. and then there was the pat-specific worry that you would be sexist and think that i had somehow brainwashed james into being a feminist.
i think we are probably all slightly anxious about the meeting, cause we all want it to work out really well and be a super-foursome team. you might should warn becca lady that when we hang out, we reeeeaally hang out. like for 6 or 7 hours at least. most people we know don't like that. i hope this is okay. we like to pretend we are having slumber parties.
we do love to talk politics...i hope we don't bore her to tears. we will do our best.
