Hi Abby, Ice, Sue, and tiggy! (I think those are all the new-to-me people in this thread.)
(And yes, serial commas do rock. Now lets all glare at my manager and Editor in Chief until he agrees.)
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

I think there are enough Heathers here to form a working coalition with whichever party has the most/best chocolate/fernet to share. Or is this a first past the post master plan?
ETA: Yes, I'm a stealth Heather.

The longer I stay awake tonight, the more time I have before tomorrow begins.
My first quick-edit attempt; hope this works:
of course now I have to ask you, since you are from NJ "which exit?!"
Exit 9 on the Turnpike. I had to look for a Parkway map online because I never drive it -- exit 123 dumps you off in my home town of Sayreville. Hometown of Bon Jovi, I tell people, because that sounds more appealing than extolling the virtues of the local toxic waste sites.
OK, my shiny lurker newness has worn off enough that I should go post in another thread. I'm going to look for a volunteer to kick me in the virtual shins if I don't make an honest attempt to convert some of my Internet goofing-off to novel-writing time.

The Aimee/Amys have ALL the best toys. And chocolate. And ... well, Fernet, if we have to, I guess. You can have my share!
