I should be in the dictionary next to the definition of "sap"
You'd have to chase Tom an I off that illustration page. The sentiment I had in my head originally was even sappier, but I figured it is too early for too much unmitigated schmoop.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Nora, you give me hope. For reals. Aw.

You don't think she'd hyphenate? Ms. Rio Hernandez-Saget has a certain je ne sais quois....
Oh! Speaking of French phrases -- why do we use RSVP, anyway? I just had to explain what it means to an unAmerican, who has two degrees in French.

Anne! It's been forever since I posted with you - how are you doing?
I am getting the house ready for sale, so I am in a constant state of low-level panic. Also, I have a waterlogged iPod.

Does anyone know if iPods will recover from being submerged?
DONT TRY TO TURN IT ON. Leave it alone for 24 hours, then try to turn it on. Most of the time, it's the electricity traveling through the wet circuitry that fries machinery.

Raging fucking blinglust is just entertaining to contemplate.
Rio's dress sounds bosom-orific.

If you google submerged ipod, the third link has good advice.

Nora, I love it that you planned for a day to recover from vacation.
You'd have to chase Tom an I off that illustration page.
No, it would be lovely to meet you guys. Instead of crossing an ocean, this time, I'll have to become a definition in the dictionary.
Ms. Rio Hernandez-Saget
Definitely.
[Edit:
I am getting the house ready for sale
So you're definitely moving? House-selling~ma to you, with some calmness vibes]

move out and draw fire
I keep being bummed you are moving, Anne, and then I realize I don't live near you anymore anyway.
The iPod didn't survive the float test? Alas, I have no info on whether they are at all watertight. Let the connectors drain at least. What happened?
I'm guessing we use RSVP because if left to our own devices, invites would say something like, "Dude, just freaking call if you can't make it." Although that might actually work better.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I thought I would have the blinglust, then... not so much. It just seemed so unimportant compared to getting to spend the rest of my life with TomW.
Awww....schmoop! This is a good way to start the day.
