omorkaSo, today:
1) Inadvertently said something that may have semi-outed me to Debate, Choir, and Drama in 3rd period (D'oh!). I think Debate caught it and didn't care. The other two may have caught it or not. In any case, none of them reacted badly. Choir seems like the type to write it off as a joke, anyway.
2) Continued having an amusingly bizarre conversation in Stats with one of the Hastings kids, who is a freaking goofball in a mostly-good way. Let him be known herefore as "Random." Random is perhaps best described as a Weirdness Magnet in the GURPS sense - not only does he say semi-irrelevant things on a regular basis, but odd things seem to happen around/to him. He has determined that I am one of those odd things . . .
3) A different kid in the same Stats class - henceforth "Half-Strike" - found out last class that I'm an anime fan, and asked me if I'd seen That Ninja Show Everyone Keeps Going On About. I told him that I liked my anime licensed, TYVM. Today, he asked me (in an exaggeratedly causal way, which makes me suspect he actually does care what I think) if I really thought stealing unreleased anime was wrong. I told him "for sufficiently broad values of 'wrong,' yes." He then said, in a slightly disappointed tone, "So if I brought you a CD with the first few episodes of "Full Metal Alchemist," you wouldn't watch it?" We then had a little talk about why fansubs are not always better than licensed properties; I didn't have the heart to tell him that if I hadn't taken it from either Hyper or![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
memeslayer, I surely wasn't going to take it from him.
4) I discovered that one of my kids in my 5A class had been assuming I was a lesbian, mostly because I insist on referring to the Spouse as "the Spouse." When I mentioned "my husband" in a response to a question someone else had asked, he did a double-take.
5) I think things are well and firmly patched up with Debate. He's come by my room several times as the forensic society has been putting together their middle-school tournament for this weekend. While he's had official stuff to do, it also seemed like he was sticking his head in to say hi; certainly I can't imagine him being this casual and talkative if he were still pissed off.
Bending the dominant paradigm to my Will, one set of perceptions at a time . . . :)
