Gchat Realizations: Part Deux

So, here's the deal. I am now fully confident in the fact that I was meant to be a writer. There have absolutely been shaky days where that fact was unclear. But, now, in my many years of experience (so sure), I can say that I was meant to be a writer and there is absolutely no turning back. There is obviously more than one reason that this is true, but I have recently discovered one that I find really hilarious.

And that is that I love, nay LOVE, punctuation and the ability to make words mean things through formatting. For example, in gchat, I never knew how to do anything except for type and capitalize words. Now, as fun as that can be -yelling via gchat - I still felt like something was missing. Oftentimes I've found myself wishing I could convey my sarcasm or humor through the glorious world of italics...but alas, I did not know how. Well, my friends, those days are over.

And herein lies the gchat where Eric showed me the world of bolds, strikethroughs and italics.
