It's slightly after midnight and here I type, just before I log out for the day (which is a new day, by the way). I was in chat, yet I was doing anything but chatting. Kind of defeats the purpose of chat, am I right? I almost feel like a front desk receptionist when I jump into the chatroom lobby. I end up having 4+ tabs open, and I'm flipping between all of them. At times, I accidentally close the wrong tab and disconnect myself (a perfect example of why I would fail at front-desk or anything computer related. Would you want me to handle the launch codes for the nuclear arsenal?).
To make things more fun, I had WordPad open while I had my browser open. Taking notes and chatting doesn't go too smoothly alongside one another, to say the least. If I remember correctly, one of my thinking-out-loud sentences made it into chat, rather than in my notes in Word. It's such fun to watch a confusing sentence slowly scroll up the screen--like it was being deliberately pushed out of view, for the sake of clear speech! (If that's possible in chat.) Eh, I'll balance it all sometime and eventually become comfortable in chat. For now, I'll continue to be the wallflower reading the book, sorting files, and closing the wrong tabs.
Night, All!
