it was such a nice birthday up until now, too...
Auuuuuugh, Longwinded Man somehow got around my email filters and sent me a birthday email. UGH, UGH, UGH, WHY????
I mean, I'm going to save it as evidence in case he ever turns into a physical stalker, but ick, I felt dirty just opening it to check that it really was him and not a weird spammer who coincidentally had the same name.
And now if you'll excuse me, I need to go reset my filters.

ETA: Okay, no, the filters were working as designed; his message went straight to my trash folder. I just was unpleasantly surprised to see it there and in the rush of adrenaline forgot exactly what I'd told Google to do with his messages. And I think... I think I would rather receive and file them than block them altogether, just for the evidence factor, even though knowing he still sends them makes me feel icky. At least this way I know what he's up to.
