Avert Thy Eyes
The instant my eyes caught sight of the old e-mail, embedded in an innocent search for something else, I recoiled in instinctive self-preservation. But my eyes wouldn’t leave the squarish box, scanning furiously for all the extra bits that stood out stabbingly the last I trashed it.
Breathe, breathe. A heart-thumping I didn’t consciously ask for in my chest, I’m left running away in separate windows; my eyes which refused to be torn away had to be assisted by the hasty click, re-clicking of a finger.
Heave. A spinning head later, I wonder why I do this. There is a “delete forever” option. I’ve seen it before, but I had never seen it before.





*dang* delete an email and you had to make a story outta it?! =P HAHAHHAH… “gmail…you’ll never have to delete another message”…
Hmm, it’s what was *in* the message, yeah?
k i want to know what email you pulled out. email me. about the email. to my gmail.
you know i JUST saw the delete forever button for the first time, a few hours ago when patrick was checking his gmail. Weird. I was like…”delete FOREVER? jeez, how absolute and final.”
I’m perplexed. A normal stalker-ish email would not have invoked such a response.
hmmm…curiosity killed the cat…
It wasn’t a stalkerish e-mail…It was someone I used to care about very much that, in no uncertain terms, went a little whacko and said mean things. It’s an old e-mail. But I guess it still pierces a little. :\
I KNOW WHO IT IS NOW I KNOW WHO IT IS NOW
