[QUOTE="WearyWoman, post: 383759"] Jules - I'm not sure how long this will bother me, and it would be freeing to put my reaction into words and send her an e-mail. Maybe I should type one up and save it, ready to send after I've had some time to consider it. This board is the best. It's truly the only group of people I can talk to about this. And, I know in the scheme of things, that this isn't a great big deal. I'm actually surprised at how upset I feel about it.
