Cos, apparently, life isn't weird enough.

I just came back to the computer to find this IM. Oh, silverstah, this one's for you.



T (9:30:17 PM): Just wanted to let you know I've changed my mind. I will not be buying one of your corsets. Ever.
“T” signed off at 9:30:22 PM.

So, bemused, in between her bouncing on and off, I said:


“T” signed on at 9:34:46 PM.
Ysobelle (9:35:24 PM): And I'm supposed to say...?
T (9:35:46 PM): Absolutely nothing
“T” signed off at 9:35:54 PM.
“T” signed on at 9:39:50 PM.
“T” signed off at 9:39:58 PM.



Uh...huh? This is someone who doesn't live around here, doesn't come to my show-- I mean, someone I never see. Don't speak to much. Don't even know all that well. She tried to order a corset years ago, and then put me through weeks of "Um...don't cash the check. No, cash it now! Wait, don't cash it!" until I finally just put it in a drawer and forgot about it. Then she got pregnant. At that point, even my Mom said, "Er...dear? I think you need to just forget this one."

I just picked up my voicemail yesterday from while I was in England, and there was one from this same woman wherein she said, in a fairly nasty tone of voice, "I think it's time we had a long talk. Call me immediately."

Uh...no?

I assume whatever this was about is the same as whatever that call was about. Sigh. I'm just shaking my head. Is it just the week for crazy around here?

How come I never get any insane customers or would be customers?

I just get boring customers

It's just not fair! I want customers that make other people go "WTF?!"

[transversecity.livejournal.com]

Clients are like that, yeah. They will do things that make it impossible for you to work, and then get mad at you.

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Oh, baby, I've sorely neglected you lately. Forgive me?

And I'm still thinking about the grant thing. Even more so, now.

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Aw, there, there, love! Want this one?

[silverstah.livejournal.com]

I have a whole folder of 'em. I'll gladly send them your way once you start accepting customs again.

*evil grin*

[silverstah.livejournal.com]

*headdesk*

Wow. That's a winner.

Sorry - if someone tells me that their project is on hold, it's their responsibility to tell me that they'd like to get it back on the schedule.

Contrary to popular belief, seamstresses are not mind readers. ;)

[daemionfox.livejournal.com]

Sure. I have this game you see. I time exactly how long it takes before I start making people cry.

[silverstah.livejournal.com]

*lol* And that's what I love about you. :)

I'm nowhere near your level - I've just started learning how to say 'no'. I'm getting quite good at it, though. ;)

[daemionfox.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry ma'am, but I really have only one thing to say to someone in your position.

"No. Hell no. Not even if you paid me. I wouldn't touch this load of shit for all the gold in fort knox. Hell no, just in case you're deaf. Not only no, but FUCK no.

And in case you're stupid and didn't understand any of that.

No."

[silverstah.livejournal.com]

OMG. I heart you. :)

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

That's it. You get to answer my mail now.

friggin....wow...

[surlywench.livejournal.com]

*WOW*

you can just give her my # and say that I'm your new accounts manager >:O>
I would *so* be willing to take this one for you...*eg*

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Big Heart! I'm still in that I feel guilty, for charging you so why don't I pay you to take my wares away, since I'm a dumbass phase.

Or as I like to call it. Market Research. /eye roll

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Speaking of Weird customers and money, can I please give you some? :)

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Money, not wackjob customers.

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

I doubt this has anything to do with the check. Hell, I don't even know what happened to it. I think it's in a drawer somewhere, if we didn't shred it. That was years ago. I pretty much figured a good while ago she was never going to place an actual order, anyway.

[silverstah.livejournal.com]

Then.... WTF?

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Oh, sweet jebus, yes. YES! Also, does your stomacher have 14 loops? I have your picture on the wall in my cube, and I think I counted correctly, but I wanted to ask.

By when did you need your cobalt stomacher, sexypants?

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Ow. I just snorted a sinus.

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Oh, honey. Don't injure yourself. It wasn't that funny. :)

Re: friggin....wow...

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Do I know? More to the point, do I care? Sigh. I'm sure, at some point, whatever failing I have will be flung at my feet in some dramatic fashion. Til then, it's not exactly gut-wrenching to lose a sale I knew I was never going to get, is it now?

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

24 loops. Whenever you get the time. I'm easy, but only for you! Hee hee. ^ called me sexy.... /giggle

Right back at ya babe.

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's okay, Besides, I seem to have all the whackjobs I need!

Wow. That just sounds wrong no matter HOW you take it.

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Just e mail me instructions, and I can send you money. I don't care if it's check, MO or Paypal, I just like giving you money. /tounge

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Oh, I meant per side. Have to know how many to put so you can lace it in correctly.

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah. Bad. You said Whack and Job. LOL.

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Bowmchikabowmbowm!

Drop me your email, you fabulous creature, and I'll send you my snail mail.

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Awwwwwwwwww, yeah!


GO ME!

Re: friggin....wow...

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Only if you videotape it. I swear.

Re: friggin....wow...

[surlywench.livejournal.com]

I was kind of planning on it as I'd probably need the documentary evidence in a court of law later...but until then, the laugh factor would be *so* worth it.

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Go you!

/Happy dance!

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

That was per side lovie. :) You meant the black craft loops that the corset is laced with right?

Re: friggin....wow...

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

I'm there. G-d, I'm there!

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Yah. Just one side of the stomacher. It's got twelve loops on each side?

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

You got it, baby!

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Kay, deleteing my e mail... :)

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Nope, I counted 24 loops down one side of it. Remember I'm an Amazon, and I'm about two feet taller than you. :)

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

Want me to send you a close up picture so you can double check me? :)

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Yes'm. And hell, EVERYONE'S taller than me!

Okay, dammit. Bedtime!

[morriganswitch.livejournal.com]

You got it!

Re: friggin....wow...

[silverstah.livejournal.com]

Well, keep us posted. If anything, it makes amusing livejournal fodder. ;)

Re: friggin....wow...

[danicia.livejournal.com]

Exactly!!!

[mirroreyes.livejournal.com]

Yippy!

Re: friggin....wow...

[mordath.livejournal.com]

Quite. If we don't find out what the hell this woman's deal is, I'll be forced to search out amusement, and that's never good.

[42redmonkeys.livejournal.com]

hahahaha

[snugglyevil.livejournal.com]

This Crack Moment brought to you by.....

the letter Orange and the color five

[smileitsme.livejournal.com]

The way I see it .... one less person in front of me getting one of your corsets, which will move mine up the ladder. :-)

And speaking of my corset ..... *mwah*

Re: friggin....wow...

[silverstah.livejournal.com]

Hey! I didn't know you read Ysobelle's LJ. ;)
