how embarrassment

Well, that'll learn me. Went to a seminar at work today (very interesting by the way, about the effects of insulating and heating houses on energy consumption and health). I was there early to set up so I pulled out my ipod and started reading some fic, a) because I don't have the emotional wherewithal to read fiction without 1) romantic resolutions and pornography or 2) characters I am attached to already right now and b) because that's what I was going to take notes on anyway.

Before the seminar starts my coworker plops down next to me and is like, "What are you reading?"

I don't think I've blushed so hard in my life. Or closed Stanza so quickly.

(I told him it was none of his beeswax. I quite like him so I felt bad that I wasn't able to make up a plausible lie, but then he might have tried to look and what I was reading was definitely on the romantic-resolutions-and-pornography scale.)

I am also sad about that! And I will try to do the same? :D?

RIGHT?? Exactly!
