Wow, you two are much too kind. I've been feeling kind of guilty about the lurking... Anyway, it's 3003 words short to be exact. I have to hand it in Friday (I'm baaad, I know). Is that feasible for either of you?
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Okay, thanks Deena, sj and Deb (regardless). I've just sent it your collective ways as a .doc file so let me know if you need it in some other incarnation. Deb, I sent it to you too, on the off chance that you'll have a moment. I look forward to your comments/corrections/requests for various baked goods.
Ohhh! And Deb, before I forget, those haiku you so graciously edited for me (eons ago now) have been recently accepted for publication!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Woot! Go Brynn, with the haiku!
Received. Will do my utmost.

Brynn, insent. Done. Notes in the body of the email.

The status is NOT quo.
Deb, how many coats are you putting on your kitchen? Or are you just painting it a different color each day? ;) Btw - brief little note to you -- insent.

Kristin, two coats, but it's having to be done in sections, and remember, it's a three-room kitchen; we're talking nearly 1200 feet of wall and ceiling space. There are so many curves and cornices and demented little angles to go over; Nic spent half an hour handpainting what he calls the rosette and I call the medallion above the ceiling fan. That kind of thing. A very warm, happy cream, but this is exhausting, and I want my house back. The dining room is loaded with stuff from the kitchen.
And I really want to get some writing done, and it's going to be days before I do.

Skipping to the end - deb, I'm trying to send from a different address. Really sorry for all that bother.
