Geoff sent me an email. I responded. Somewhere between my Yahoo email account and my gmail account, it went from being a few lines of perfectly adequate English, to this:

I was so confused for a minute because I just posted about something Japanese. Took me several seconds for me to realize that you meant Theater Professor Geoff, and not me.

[dramaturgca.livejournal.com]

You spell yours Geof, don't you? I think?

*Has far too many Geof/Geoff/Jeffs in her life*

[spartacusjones.livejournal.com]

I spell mine Geof or Geoff, depending on the audience. Officially to the school, I'm Geoff.

[dramaturgca.livejournal.com]

Ahhh...I understand now. Sorry, didn't mean to confuse you...

[spartacusjones.livejournal.com]

No worries.

[kitmarlowe.livejournal.com]

The Klingons are trying to communicate, man.

[dramaturgca.livejournal.com]

C'est possible. Not gonna help if they do it that way...

[seino-chan.livejournal.com]

Did you actually send that to Geoff?

[dramaturgca.livejournal.com]

Since I got an actual response from him, I have to assume it reached his inbox in a more English format...
