Sean,
WOW!
It’s amazing what the interweb can do ![]()
I’m busted. What can I say? I picked up the phone and scrolled to your name half a dozen times and couldn’t think of a single thing to say. So, yeah. You got me! I should have thought of Google before I posted that last blog but – I’m kind of glad you found me. Email is much better for starters. So if you remember the night differently, how do you remember it? I’m curious.
As to the honesty – that’s a given that sort of goes without saying. However, I suspect part of the uncomfortableness I have in calling is the knowledge that I spoke so freely to you based on the comfort of the anonymity of a crowded dark room and the idea that I wouldn’t see you again. There’s safety in total honesty that way.
I’m still a little mystified that you found my blog. I saw a search for Hexagenesis pop up on my tracker but I didn’t think anything about it.
Well, there you have it. The Universe is thwarting my plans to be a chicken-shit by using my own loud-cyber-mouth and technology against me. Drats.
Because my friends are curious if I called you, and my readers have sent me emails saying that I should and yadda yadda – I’m going to post my response to your email on my blog. I won’t post your email or what you said. If this bothers you just let me know and I will keep my responses from here on private.
I’m curious to see what happens. When I can think of something half intelligent to say, I will write you back. I hope you’re having a fabulous day. I’m quite sure I’ll be laughing most of the morning over this.
Thank you for reaching,
Athena

HaHaHa! Woops! But funny. And good thing it was such a flattering post for him to find. Hi Sean!
No, email is not better. Email is for people who wish to continue to be chicken-shits. Email is just another way of keeping things at an arms length. Pick up the phone and brave an unscripted interaction!
(Hmm, a rather curt reaction, but you know I say it with love…)
Mona, are you going to flog me still?
But I know it is with love
I’m kinda with Mona here…
Flogging is always with love…
Brian – I understand.
(side note, because you like those so much)
We should have a Big Trouble in Little China costume party!
Mona, dearest…
I find I am strangely excited
As you should be.
“Big Trouble in Little China” costume party?
OH MY YES.
Yes, Athena. Yes, we should.
