Nicole, I hope you hear from your friend soon.

Thanks, sj. I hope so, too. She was supposed to be flying back from VA this morning. Maybe her flight was delayed and her cell is dead? I don't know. I'll find out something one way or the other tomorrow since we work together.

Congrats on the first class tickets, billytea. Traveling in style!

Way to go, K-Bug! I never doubted they'd snap you up, slugger.

Glad you're going to be back stateside, billytea, even if you are slighting Northern California.

Emmett had another good game. I think his hitting slump is over since he got four hits today. We crushed them 20-5. And they have some really good players (who just weren't pitching today). Since Emmett has an incentive laden contract, I now owe him several new Tintins.

That is AWESOME news about K-Bug!

Why am I awake? Must head bedward.

No sugar for you!

Have some salt instead. Now drink whiskey. Now go sleep.

There is no slighting! On my current (tentative) schedule, I plan to be staying in SF on the 21st and 22nd. Unfortunately, using frequent flyer points have compressed my travel plans by two days (which had already been truncated by a week because Wallybee can't come with me and I'll be taking her to Alice Springs for a week when I get back), but the impending sprogfall has assured SF's place on my agenda. For that matter, I'll be flying out from SFO.

Stops as they currently stand: LA (including the Wild Animal Park at least, and hopefully the S.D. Zoo too); San Francisco; Seattle; Chicago (staying with my law perfesser friends); NYC; Atlanta (DragonCon!). Oh, and Cincy.

Big meanie.

No salt. Bleh. Salt not sweet. Whiskey not sweet. Whyfore are you so mean to sugar-deprived Teppy?

(Dude. I am *so* a junkie.)

Oh, and Cincy.

Woot!!!

Righteous!

Whyfore are you so mean to sugar-deprived Teppy?

Eat a leafy green.

::checks bin::

Mustard greens for you! No sugar!

So very glad Hec is not in charge of the menu for Prom or the hospitality suite.

Eat a leafy green.

Kiss my leafy green, buddy!

(The level of crankitude and other withdrawal symptoms is directly proportional to how big of a junkie I am.)

At the Mothers' Day festivities today, I did not have dessert (pound cake with ice cream and strawberries in some sort of goo that doubtless was a sugar-laden goo). I am VERY proud of my ability to resist Teh White Devil. I deserve a gold star. Or! A cookie! Yes. A COOKIE DEAR GOD I DESERVE A COOKIE!!!

This has taught me to NEVER try to go off caffeine.

Oh Teppy! I so feel for you right now.

bt, I didn't realize you'd be visiting (yes, I never get to b.org anymore). I LOVE the Wild Animal Park.
