Mais oui. Do not forget - we have the killer hills, too.

Heh. I remember going flip-flop shoping with Holli to save Teppy's feet.

But you and Holli FAILED in your quest! (So Holli let me wear her shoes, which was an incredible relief, and then I stuck my feet in the hotel pool for, like, an hour.)

All I wear anymore are comfortable walking shoes. Which reminds me, I want to go to Land's End online and buy some summer sandals and tee shirts.

Yeah, I just enjoyed shopping with Holli.

But Holli cared about your feet and that's why we love her.

One of my favorite memories from that F2F was sitting by the pool with Holli, talking about comics and the Jossverse and how we feel that fiction ruined us just a little bit, because (for instance) thanks to Willow and Raven, I halfway expect to be telekinetic. Holli said that, due to fiction, if she's ever in a horrible industrial accident (toxic waste dumped on head, etc.), she'll be really annoyed if she dies, because -- thanks to comics -- she'd expect to acquire superpowers instead.

It was the perfect geek conversation.

Just got back from seeing the surgeon about my heel: he thinks it was most likely a bruise. Well, it's not there anymore and my foot is pretty much not-ouchy so -- guess so. He also said that at the place where he did his training they did a study and in most cases where you have glass in your foot it shows up in an x-ray.

No glass showed up in the x-ray. Also, a bruise -- yes, that's what that dark reddish discoloration on my heel looked like, before I like peeled the skin away. Because I could not resist. And now the only reason my heel hurts is a bit of a sting from new, soft skin.

So, I guess that's good.

I don't want to copy edit anything else. I don't want to deal with sudden emergencies with the documents or the build.

I will keep doing all these things, because there isn't any one else to deal with it and I am nothing if not a good worker bee, but I. Don't. Want. To.

(I just had to get that out of my system. Sorry.)

Must. Stop. Eating. When. Angry.

Or just stop the people who are pissing you off.

From breathing.
