who you talkin' to?
I was really going to just let this go, but my true nature won over.
Yesterday afternoon, I got this — rudely short, in my estimation — e-mail. Not only was it rudely short, the subject was the man's name. Um, what?
He's a relatively famous man (in some small circles), so I won't call him out. Let's call him Guy Smiley instead.
Here's what I got:
From: Guy SmileyI responded quickly with just the facts. I am dying to send a PS note today, but I won't. Instead I've done this. It's the subject line that's putting it over the edge. I'm baffled.

Jane,
I am emailing to ask for Dollie's address. She sent me a poster and I need to send her a thank you note.
Thanks,
Guy

Perhaps. And probably. You're always so sane! I'm still going to stew a little though. Just to keep myself occupied until Thursday, when hockey comes back.
Oh no! I think it's fantastic. There's so much misery, why not see the bright side?
i think i know who this is, just by the description. or i'm just totally off
Rhubelerosko, you were right! I asked him this weekend. Well, really I told him, "By the way, when you send emails, don't put your name as the subject. It makes me angry." And he said, "Really? I only put it because I didn't know if you'd know who 'email address with his initials' was [like I don't refer to him by his initials ALL THE TIME!]. Your name is in your email address, so I know it's you." He won't do it again.
