Oh Trudy.

Well, finally got out of the office at 8 and we went out to dinner. Didn't get back to the hotel until 10pm. Guh. Meeting up for breakfast at 7am.

One thing I have to say about this trip, is that we eat VERY well. I'm not going to have to eat again for a week.

Thanks, guys.

I'm thinking about the rampant nicknames in the small town I grew up in (its where a lot of the Station Agent was shot, pretty quaint and idyllic and boring as hell once you've cleared the age of 12).

There was one set of siblings who all wound up called by a nickname derived from their last name -- so their friends would call the Paterno house and ask for "Pat" (again, fake name) and be asked "which grade?".

There was a kid in my grade who had the great misfortune one year of having a back pack the precise color of his jacket. He was dubbed "Quasi Modo" by the rest of the fourth grade. Bravo on them for being so literary (this was way before the Disney movie you whippersnappers), but that poor sucker was Quaz until he got out of high school.

My father's name was Floyd, and he generally went by Bud, but there was a bunch of guys who had known him from high school who always called him Skeeter or Skeet. I never had the nerve to ask.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I didn't really have a proper nickname at school, yet I now have two at work: "Sneakers" and "Willipedia".

"Willipedia?"
"You bet he will!"

Rarely has a shot been so rim.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh, Trudy, tons of ~ma to your mother, your sisters, you and a little bit for Dinky.

Rant ahead:
Those f*cking f*ckers at the City of Pasadena! (Not Drew & Kristin, who are lovely.) They upheld my parking ticket, which would be okay, except they so clearly didn't read my f*cking letter. They upheld it because, in sum, "you can't park overnight in Pasadena without a parking exemption from kiosks available throughout the city--call here for kiosk locations." I know--that's why I got one and then sent you a photocopy of it as proof!

ETA: I waited two months for them to not review what I sent them!

Much ~ma to Trudy's mom~~~

Willipedia is the perfect nickname for you, BT.
