five thousand shades of blue
Thursday, January 31, 2002
The internet is a weird and wonderful place. A friend of mine I met online and have met in person at least twice (and that I have known for, hm, probably close to 8 or 9 years now) is currently going to university in Edinburgh (but hails from Canada). She recently spoke at length on our mutual mailing list about appearing on British TV on something called "University Challenge".
Cut to Wednesday. I'm reading my usual spate of blogs and such and I read
Swish Cottage. My eyes fix upon an entry about staying in and watching tv and the ...interesting programming on British TV, and see he's written this:
8:00pm BBC2 University Challenge [no-one shaggable, and we hated the smug Canadian girl]
After pressing for details (since my friend has rather red hair), it turns out it's
her he's talking about. His comment after that: "... I'm sure she's not smug really, it's just nerves. And I'm just jealous that she knows MORE THAN ME!" *grin*
Like I said, the net's a weird place.
is
this just not enough…?
