Respect, and glitter

I don't typically send glittermissives to people I like and respect, not unless I know they like glitter too. It's so hard to get out of the carpet...

DeVry sent me a letter urging me to go to school there and get one of their spiffy degrees. I took their prepaid return envelope and dumped about five times as much glitter as I typically use in snailspam returns, wrote them a note recommending that they ask their CIS people to write them a script to pull current and recent former students from their list for such mailings, and put it in the sending queue on top of the living room stereo.

Mentioned this to Darkside. Reassured him that he may have noticed that I never sent him glitter, because I didn't want to cause him any problems, and I knew his mother would probably make him clean up every last bit, and I know how difficult glitter is to get out of carpet...

Work is becoming glitterfied, because I wear glitter at work, and I shed...

*snicker* I doubt they'll do it, but it's a good suggestion. A "technical institute" should really know better than that.

No snail-spam, but they have attacked me online...

And they don't target at all! I used to get so much spam from DeVry and none from any of the UK universities.

It's exactly like the viagra spam. I'm not male, and even if I were male I wouldn't buy products advertised by unsolicited email and even if I did, I wouldn't buy knock-off viagra advertised by unsolicited email since I live in a country where I can get the real thing for free!

Spam makes my head hurt.

The night before last, I glittered the top of my critter's beautiful bald head. Profusely. With some lotion for stickage.

There were still bits of sparkle clinging to his temples as late as today, after two nights and one shower. I was delighted.
