Mercury is in retrograde and boy do I know it...

So yesterday someone on Etsy paid me a compliment that I totally took the wrong way and was very offended. What an idiot. I should know after many years on internet forums that its impossible to tell someones 'tone'.
Anyway, I chewed the poor girl out and when I realised it was ME and I had completely misunderstood her, I just wanted the ground to swallow me up. I apologised profusely but still feel so bad. On the bright side, I DID find a fantastic new shop ha ha! She makes gorgeous original plushies and I actually have my eye on one for a Xmas present.
Mercury in retrograde - Meh, I shouldn't even be TRYING to communicate with anyone right now...
