Anyone free this evening?

I'm back in Ottawa, and looking to do social time... anyone free this evening? ETA: success already!

(Also, [livejournal.com profile] soul_diaspora is looking for intravert time.)

In other news, while walking home from the bus stop, I abruptly realized that there was a skunk about one foot away from me in the bushes along the path, and did not tarry in the vicinity. I didn't even know we had skunks there...

You act like this was accidental.

Why might you think it wouldn't have been?

Do I really need to answer that?

Well, I guess now I can say you're being prejudiced, can't I?

Whether you're right or not is another question, of course, and one I'm not answering!

Actually, all I said definitively was that you *act* like this is accidental. If you read carefully, you'll notice I didn't actually express an opinion as to whether or not it *was*, I merely asked whether I needed to answer. You just presumed the answer you wanted. :p

That said, I will freely confess that I like hair-splitting word games almost as much as you like puns.

*chuckle* Ah yes, you imply nothing, of course! Do you have a career planned in politics?

Also, be careful when you stick out your tongue!

And finally, I'll be keeping my rabbits away from you, just in case!

haha Naw, no politics career, it's more that I was raised in an environment where survival *required* the ability to elevate plausible deniability to an art form. When I got out of that environment, it became a hobby instead.

Oh, and I'm always careful... :D

I don't know about "plausible" in the above discussion, but I do get what you mean about upbringing.

Careful to what, though?

You're getting better at this. :p

*chuckle* Well, I'm also not holding back as much. Some people would get frustrated with this, so I don't do it for long unless I know the other party is enjoying it.
