This email tete-a-tete occurred between Tra and Cory for the posts you are reading below. Now if I weren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t out of town \u00e2\u20ac\u201c this would have been an entirely different conversation. How? Observe – <\/em><\/p>\n

Tra: The season has us slacking on the blog. We will be disappointing our readers. But I wrote up a little something. Let me know what you think.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Yes! Best Idea Ever! Suck the will to live right out, down with the holiday season and all the cretins who have tortured you in the parking lot?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cory: I don’t even know what to say. I know I wrote a piece comlaining too but
\nmaybe it’s just be but this comes across as very cynical.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153HAHAHAHAHA! No, really? From the desk of occasionally morose fiction writer, this gem that Tracey is far too cynical, but the anti-complaining complain post is right up the care bears alley!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tra: Cynical? Really? I was trying to be a bit snarky but cynical, I don’t know. Is it a good cynical or bad cynical?<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Half full, Half empty, Just drink up and pass out already!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cory: To me, yes it came across as cynical\/down with Christmas and not in a good way. Almost like ya I got a big chip on my shoulder kinda way. But I don’t know that could just be me projecting but I can’t be sure.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Kettle, Giant Kettle! Yeah\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tra: Ok I read it. I like it. I get it. But is this about me? Do I complain too much? Did I break your back? Are you a camel? Am I straw? I will post it tonight.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The Paranoia is setting in, no one is safe \u00e2\u20ac\u201c I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d think it was about me but clearly I am the egocentric one in our trio, yeah?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cory: HOLY egocentric much? No this is not about you, If it were only you I could handle that it just seems that everyone is complaining all the time recently and I am the go to guy – a one man complaint department. Rest assured while you are a complainer by nature (haha, I kid) that this is not about you, you just happened to complain this morning about the traffic.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Post an overnight snowfall and uncleared streets – traffic complaints? Good Ole\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Tra at work!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tra: A complainer by nature? You are totally not kidding about that cuz you know it is true. Don’t deny. I do complain a lot but you are used to it. I am worse in the mornings. I will have to go over my post and try to not make it sound so harsh then, well if I get around to it. Can we post 2 things that is just us complaining in a row? Yeah I am just going to do it<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153I for one, think it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a giant chunk off the old \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcFabulous!\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 block, I cannot believe you havent posted it already and caused a pandemic!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d
