Last night, during my i am Fool rehearsal, this happened:

"I want to do a set that plays every song on the CD in order. I think people would love it." -- Someone-Not-Me.

I say, that's a great idea. Other people in the band say, that's a great idea.

Someone-Not-Me (to me): "Well, when I suggested that, you said, 'Absolutely not!'"

Me: "I don't remember that. I think it's a great idea.

Someone-Not-Me, to me: "You said, 'Absolutely not! And here are the reasons why.'"

Me: "I don't think so. I don't remember that. When did this happen?"

Someone-Not-Me: "This afternoon. You always shoot down every idea I have. You said, 'Absolutely not!'"

Me: "I don't understand. I completely agree with the idea. I think I might have disagreed with a different idea, adding tracks to our give-away CD, but can't imagine why I would shut you down, which I actually try not to do, with an idea I completely support."

Someone-Not-Me: "You did. You always do. And you always have your reasons, but you said, 'Absolutely not!'"

Me (taking out phone): I have to check this. Something's wrong.

I then went to the Facebook message thread, and found this exchange:

Someone-Not-Me: We should play a set that is in the order of the CD we're giving away. that would be fun!
Someone-Not-Me: should we add a bonus Kelly and Monkey track?
Me: I'd rather not, but we can discuss it tonight

Someone-Not-Me thought I was responding to two messages, not just the second of the two. My response, indicating a preference but a willingness for further discussion, changed into something totally imaginary. "I'd rather not, but we can discuss it tonight" morphed into "Absolutely not, and I'll tell you the reasons why" and was attached to the wrong idea.

I really dislike social media as a means of communication.

So, yesterday's huge weekend loss was an aberration. This looks a lot more like what I was expecting yesterday. Damn those expectations.
