As I recall from a terribly long time ago (and therefore not entirely reliably), a question mark can function as a comma, and therefore need not be followed by one. This should be covered somewhere, but I don't know where.
Also -- freaking out! Help! How am I going to memorize the law of cosines, how to change logarithm bases, varying inversely, rules about circles inscribed in shaped and shapes inscribed in circle, the fact that diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, and the double-angle and half-angle and angle-sum identities in the next hour and a half?
Perhaps more importantly, how am I going to get rid of them once the test is over?
{{Heather}} I'm so sorry things worked out the way they did.
vw!! Yay for the party and Happy birthday to Toto! I am so not surprised that the ugly cake tasted wonderful. And, sorry about the fruit flies! They're annoying.
Raq, I just wouldn't use a serial comma there. It looks good the way it is.

Drill a hole in the side of your head. Tilt your head π/4 from vertical, and shake.
I changed the title into italics (thanks for the reminder!) and skipped the comma.
Thanks guys. Now I can go back to being unproductive.
Party was a huge success
Yay! Sorry about the fruit flies but I don't think anyone questioned your home hygiene because of them.
Of course, I just knocked my elbow on the table while "feeding" my cats and knocked some kibble on the floor. One walked over and started to eat it so I am giving them a couple of hours to clean up the mess for me. They are free-fed dry food but puppycat wants More! and Fresh! and New! and Attention! so I add a few pieces or pet her by the bowl.
I'm only part way though the pictures, but Toto is such a cutie. I love the pictures of him eating his pizza.
Aww! Cutiehead birthday doggie!
Those were great - looks like Toto passed out from fun. He was very cute and shinny. ( did you use Dawn's hairdresser for him? )
Fruit flies don't have to be from poor housekeeping. They can come in fruit or veggies and then hatch. Sadly - the only way to get rid o fthem is to put all the frits and veggies in the fridge so that the next generation has nothing to eat. Happily, 24 to 48 hours will usually do it.
It looks like Wally is moving forward . yay .
Hooray for the Wally report. Also, yay for Toto and his fabulous party. The pictures are adorable, and it looks like everyone had a great time. The apartment looks sooper spriffy, too. Toto is indeed very shiny and beautiful.
ChiKat, that tiara is awesome! He should consider making them for sale--a little crafts business could fund weekend getaways, or something.
Our expected guests for this afternoon have neither turned up nor called. Hmm. Can't seem to motivate to come up with alternate plans. We'll probably stay home and Foreman grill the burgers, rather than cooking out. It's a lot of mess and cleanup for just us, especially since it's furnace-hot and rainforest muggy out there. I wanna go see Howl's Moving Castle again, but we may do that next week. We've still got a Netflix dvd to watch, and DH and I are both sort of locked-in to the books we're reading at the moment, so I guess Sloth R Us, at least for today.
