[Publib] An Explanation of "new special boyfriend"

[Lynne Ingersoll]

Hi....

Please don't blush and feel bad.  We have all done this at least once.
Maybe not on this listserv but surely somewhere.  I hope you were able to
discourage football-guy.

I wanted to apologize to the publib world at large for the bizarre message.
It was my intention to continue an rather anxious email conversation I had
been carrying on privately, but I accidentally selected the wrong message to
reply to!  (it was my reply to all embarrassing moment)  I have been so
embarrassed since I realized my mistake, but really appreciate that everyone
has been friendly about it.  As for details, lets just say the person I
intended the email for was (in my mind) to blame for a sticky situation I
found myself in.  I was working on a paper at the library when a
rather...unusual...guy joined me at my table.  He was oblivious to all my
attempts to discourage him.  I was already anxious about the project I was
working on, and he smelled quite strongly of cologne, making my anxiety
worse, and, well, he was carrying a football, which I think says enough
about the image he hoped to promote.  As I had trouble extricating myself
from his company, it was funny to think that I might never get away from
him.  I do apologize for the rather unprofessional message, and hope that in
the future, I can contribute in a very different manner from this past
message.  If I can ever get over my embarrassment and read the digests
without blushing, that is!
