{{{Ginger}}} I hope you're feeling better and that the electricity is back on.

YAY Kristin getting on her flight and getting to fly first class! You deserve it, girl!

Has anyone ever played Moo? I learned how to play tonight and proceeded to kick. major. ass. It was SO fun!

Yes, {{{{{Ginger}}}}}}

And yay to Kristin. THAT is the way to fly, almost makes up for the delays and angst. Almost.

Finally YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY to Emmett and team. That is so fantastic. VERY happy for all involved. Muppet flailing from afar.

Oh! Yes! I knew I was forgetting something! YAY EMMETT AND TEAM!!!!

Even better if it's a chainsaw wielding rubber penguin.

It fits the beats. "Chainsaw wielding...rubber penguin."

Hmm, they may have been Andy Kim's original lyrics.

Yay, Emmett and team!

Tons of ~ma for Ginger. I hope you feel better very quickly, and your dog gets some peace.

ginger -- may things have improved by the time I post

Congrats to Emmett, Hec, and the whole team!

"It's GilesRubber Penguin! It's GilesRubber Penguin, with a chainsaw!"

Oh geez, Ginger. Much ma headed in your direction.

Sometimes the gods smile, Kristin. I'm glad they smiled in your direction, since they've been mostly snickering and pointing lately.

Also, sj, rings! Must see pictures! My tastes are idiosyncratic, I realize this, but I think Betsy has the most beautiful wedding ring I've ever seen. It's hard to describe, a simple band, but gorgeously engraved. I don't know if her DH's matches or not.

Our original plain yellow gold bands did. I had to stop wearing mine, it trapped water underneath it and the skin of my finger weakened and deteriorated. I replaced it with a wee narrow one, and then we had my mom's engagement diamond (Dad bought her a new one)reset in a designer ring, with the two tiny chips from my "pre-engagement" ring. Then DH had his accident and stopped wearing his ring at all. For a significant anniversary, I got a wide-ish sterling band with a moonstone set in 18kt yellow gold bezel, bracketed by a wirework applique that ran the circumference of the ring and ended with spirals on either side of the moonstone, symbolizing two-in-one. It got too tight for comfort, so now I'm wearing a stack of very narrow sterling bands in different patterns.

At least I've kept the same husband.

Food poisoning with many trip to toilet. Battery low. Send ma.

Oh no! Gut-ma and electro-ma for Ginger.

quick post because iPhone posting is time consuming. Am in Miami. OMG best flying experience ever. If only I had the cash to fly like that all the time.

So much -ma for poor Ginger! Feel better soon.
