Whatevs, hos. I see you points (kinda) but there is no way I'm apologizing to that woman.
Annnnd dude, since it's Life Lessons (tm), break-out-the-crystals hour, when someone asks you "How are you"? a few times (well-spaced I may add, as it may have been four times over the course of like, three months) you can just write back with like, a sentence: "Good. Busy. Doing the IP, I'll get back at you in due time." Anything like that...
