I Should Be Embarrassed But Here I Am Laughing Hysterically

Tweet

This will prove once and for all the wacky sense of humor I have. I just have to write this out now though and will be back here hopefully by Wednesday. I did a email to many of my friends here to tell them how much I'm MIA in just about all my "haunts" including here...I've been working like a maniac on my grant application that is due soon, soon, soon and am hoping to get it all done by Wednesday. Anyway, let me share this email with you...I've had to edit it as some words won't go through [i]to all: I've been missing in action just about everywhere....hardly been to mylot save to answer one of my friend's discussions today....I'm working like a maniac on my grant application (Aaron Siskind) and a presentation of photos....only allowed to send in eight...crap...how does one choose only eight images from over 21,000 color images and 15,000 black and white photos???? ...NUTS....I did select my eight but was working all night resizing, cropping, zapping up, changing resolution..ah, fun stuff..LOL. Then rattled out a basic career summary and work statement...I should have everything finalized hopefully by Wednesday....at least the good news is that the application work is all on-line so no worries about mailing anything. Anyway, I get freaked out whenever I work on these dang grants...and can only focus (no pun intended) on working on that and nothing else....hope to be back to MyLot, Shared Reviews, blogging, and Ciao ...and am pi$$ed off and so a lot of others....most of us think we've been stiffed from getting our payment at Ciao as we should have been paid already...that was to be my Christmas money..crap, crap, crap!!!!!!! So just letting you know I shall return...uh, eventually....LOL[/i] Okay now many of you might not think anything of it...BUT..oh it gets better, I promise. So I sent this massive email to a lot of my friends, but it wasn't until it was already sent that I noticed an additional email address listed and I'm like huh? How did that get there? So did a bit of tracking to figure out who this email address was. Now on and off I write to a lot of people and organizations to find out if they are interested in my photo work, and no doubt this email address was one of those contacts I made. So did a further tracking down of which organization it was. It turns out it's one of those very religious Christian organizations that published magazines.... Well folks when I realized my error, instead of feeling embarrassed, which most people might feel, I just couldn't stop laughing....I'm still laughing. I mean the editor of the magazines that they publish is sure going to wonder who is this wacko sending such a weird email? Okay....have any of you accidentally sent a rather odd email that yes, your friends would understand, but for some "serious" contact wouldn't? Were you embarrassed or were you like me, falling off the chair with laughter?
