Oh Nilly. I'm so sorry to hear. Was it Bat Sheva?
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

Was it Bat Sheva?
Yes. The young woman who managed to save her baby daughter (who was born after around four years of fertility treatments. And looked adorable and so much like her mother and all happy and loved and adorable when we were there two weeks ago).
Is it too selfish of me to apologize for mentioning that right now, and just ask to ignore my former post [Edit: I don't want to delete it, now after you, Shir and Tom, responded to it. It'll just make things worse, I'm afraid] and concentrate on ~ma-ing mr. flea and talking about dresses and timelies and colors-of-seasons and shoes-and-ships-and-sealing-wax-and-cabbages-and-kings and why-the-sea-is-boiling-hot and whether-pigs-have-wings and the like? I'm too stressed out with my computer stubbing me in the file and my looming deadline to manage to contain the thoughts of her right now. So I'm just going to be a horrible spoiled little brat and pretend I don't have to deal with it in the meantime, OK?
Thanks. Sorry. Oof.

You. Me. Ice-cream. ASAP.

ION, I'm terribly disappointed I can't show love to the sweet potato quiche. Anyone wants some, before I'm throwing it to the trash?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
{{{Nilly}}} - there's never any need to apologize for mentioning such a thing.

seconding the Nilly love.
GO Mr. FLEA!!! May your slides slide, your audience awe, and all your questions be friendly and answerable in less than 4,000 words.

amych - I'm not apologizing for mentioning it. I'm apologizing for mentioning something while being unable to accept and process any responses regarding it. I should have just kept my keyboard shut. But thank you, of course. Regardless.
all your questions be friendly and answerable
When I was defending my Masters' thesis, the head of the department found me practicing my lecture in the room where it was supposed to take place. He told me not to worry about un-answerable questions. He said that some of these professors try to get exactly to that - to a question that the candidate can't answer (to put them in place, sort of, so to speak, in the sense of "you don't know *everything* yet, even regarding your own topic). That some of them won't relent until they find that question, and therefore being unable to answer is giving them exactly what they were looking for, and therefore a *good* thing.
