I’m weird. I’ll admit that. I’m even proud of it.

But, for the most part, I’m not *totally* socially inept, and I can get people to at least tolerate me if not enjoy my company. I tend to go out of my way to make my relations with others pleasant, particularly when said people are coworkers, because I know I’m stuck with these folks, and it is in my best interests to play nice.

I’m lucky in that all of my immediate coworkers and my boss are great fun and I don’t have to fake it much with them. But there are others among the staff I’d just as soon were not around. A few of them reside in the department I used to work in, and a few elsewhere.

There’s one who’s relatively new around here. She gets on my nerves. I try very hard to see the good in people and I know she has some, but Lord, she’s annoying. I’m always nice to her as I have no reason not to be. Even if I am tired of her. And it’s not just me; she drives just about everyone nuts. There are several ladies I’ve talked to who are NOT nice to her. But then again, if she had behaved towards me in the manner she has them… I’d probably be ignoring her at this point, at least.

She was kind enough to forward me via email a coupon for something we had been discussing. I know she thinks she’s web/computer savvy and she does seem to know more than a lot of people around here. That forward had her personal email address on it still. (She apparently doesn’t know enough to keep her anonymity.)

I did what any nosy geek would do; I stalked her out. And she does have her own website. And it’s … strange. And goofy. And very poorly built. And dull.

My first reaction was to giggle, and chuckle at it. And then I felt the nasty part of me rising, and I wanted to forward all these links to her junk to several people around the office who would be amused for sure.

But I stopped.

How would *I* feel if that were me? And my coworkers were laughing at my dull attempt at a website? She was just trying to be nice to me and Evil J. was about to do something horrid.

All I will do now is hope to God that my website is at least more interesting than hers.
