Conversational

Here’s an odd sort-of conversation I had with Sean this morning. I don’t suppose it’s that odd, but it does exemplify our relationship in an odd way.

• Olaf says:
  • Why is it that www.microsoft.com/iis still goes to the product page for Windows 2000? They just announced the Windows 2000 end-of-life forthcoming.
• SeanW says:
  • good question
• Olaf says:
  • I know.
• Olaf says:
  • Did you see a parade on Memorial Day?
• SeanW says:
  • nah, i saw my eyelids till noon. =)
• Olaf says:
  • Nice.
• Olaf says:
  • Assess the darkness.
• SeanW says:
  • assess?
• Olaf says:
  • Oh yes.
• Olaf says:
  • Did you fill out your Yahoo 360° survey?
• SeanW says:
  • nope. i just need one field though – “it sucks”
• Olaf says:
  • I told them they were craptastic. Not really. I did leave them with the impression that they were late in the game which has already been won.
• SeanW says:
  • yeah, for you and I it stinks… for jo blow, he’s already using Livejournal. So basically, they are competing for people who are less in the know than Jo Blow.
• SeanW says:
  • Competing with Microsoft that is.
• Olaf says:
  • Blow. Heh.
• SeanW says:
  • joblo.com rocks.
• SeanW says:
  • every movie trailer ever.
• Olaf says:
  • I know the one.
• Olaf says:
  • I saw Kingdom of Heaven this weekend.
• Olaf says:
  • Though you probably already knew that.
• Olaf says:
  • My life is syndicated.
• SeanW says:
  • I did know that.
• SeanW says:
  • I know your bowel movements as well. But not this week.
• Olaf says:
  • It makes it harder for me to start conversations.
• SeanW says:
  • hahaha
• Olaf says:
  • Do you ever read dooce.com?
• Olaf says:
  • That’s funny stuff.
• SeanW says:
  • my friend Keith (not the old roommate) told me I need to update more often, I told him I had no clue he even knew I had a website! heheh…
• Olaf says:
  • There you go!
• SeanW says:
  • yeah, I used to read dooce, but something drove me away from it
• Olaf says:
  • Bowel movements, maybe?
• Olaf says:
  • Long articles?
• Olaf says:
  • Those are all very likely things.
• SeanW says:
  • i think I wasn’t getting anything out of it.
• Olaf says:
  • Coincidentally, her articles are a good read if you are currently dealing with a bowell movement.
• Olaf says:
  • I can certainly relate better having a two-year old.
• SeanW says:
  • yeah, true
• Olaf says:
  • …and Yang. She’s finally started acting like a puppy.
• Olaf says:
  • She’s a shoe chewer.
• Olaf says:
  • I just realized I’ve never written the word ‘show’ or ‘chewer’ before. It felt weird.
• Olaf says:
  • ‘shoe’ that is, see what I mean?
• SeanW says:
  • shoe chewer. Yeah, I think I’ve typed shoe, but never chewer. That’s an odd one for my fingers.
