Mid-September, Nilly. I'm currently playing around with Travelocity and trying to remember I'd budgeted for this already. Because, ouch.
Harken: You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war? Zoe: Fought with a lot of people in the war. Harken: And your husband? Zoe: Fight with him sometimes, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Nilly! I passed by the restaurant where we lucky NYCistas got to have brunch with you yesterday. It is just a couple of blocks away from my kind-of-but-not-really new apartment. It was such fun to have you here. I wish I could have more Nilly in my life.
That's something that I know Kat can agree with.

That makes sense, if they're Orthodox.
ita, for how long will you be there? Also, good luck on the prices front.
OK, no more posts from me until I finish at least another part of the deadlined thing that wouldn't die. I have to behave.

Women with smart fathers or tall ones choose smart or tall mates, you're saying? Is this linked to whether or not they're smart or tall?
Smart and tall women choose smart and tall men. In either case, the process leading to this could be based on the woman's phenotype (e.g. she finds men who are dumber-than-her boring; feels awkward with a shorter-than-her man) or it could be based on the phenotype of the father (e.g. she is expected to go to college so ends up with college educated mate; grows up admiring taller than average men). It's probably her phenotype for intelligence and height, but obviously can't be for male pattern baldness.
Also, how early is early -- a significant portion of these women choosing after baldness has manifested?
Some. But for this to work you have to assume that women use a potential mate's relatives as cues for many of his future characteristics.

Not very. I'm planning on five days off, between two weekends, losing at least one entire day to travel. But that's arithmetic, and it makes me dizzy.

If I only had a brain...
I know anecdotes are not data.
Nonetheless, not smart is a dealkiller for me; not tall, not so much. I am the tall, smart daughter of tall, smart parents, and I married a short, smart person.
