And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Life imitating Alias:

They had lived for more than a decade in American cities and suburbs from Seattle to New York, where they seemed to be ordinary couples working ordinary jobs, chatting to the neighbors about schools and apologizing for noisy teenagers.

But on Monday, federal prosecutors accused 11 people of being part of a Russian espionage ring, living under false names and deep cover in a patient scheme to penetrate what one coded message called American “policy making circles.”

An F.B.I. investigation that began at least seven years ago culminated with the arrest on Sunday of 10 people in Yonkers, Boston and northern Virginia. The documents detailed what the authorities called the “Illegals Program,” an ambitious, long-term effort by the S.V.R., the successor to the Soviet K.G.B., to plant Russian spies in the United States to gather information and recruit more agents.

Welcome home, sara! I did not shed in your house! Possibly I brought some cathair from my house though. There is a metric assload of it not attached to the cats.

Best friend is having fairly major surgery today and Bob has 4 appointments of varying degrees of seriousness over today and tomorrow in advance of his reversal surgery next week. All vibes for best possible outcomes are welcome.

And, after his next surgery, I am very much hoping for a looooong time passing before any more loved ones are in the hospital for anything other than followup appts, work, or giving birth. This year has been too much.

Yay for sleeping!

Good luck to Bob and your friend, Lisa.

I brought my rent check and stamps into work, but no envelope. Now I can't find a non-letterhead envelope here. Oh well.

Thanks, guys. My biggest worry is that something will show up that will either postpone his reversal or worse. I'm being positive about it all but it's hard not to worry.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Fingers crossed for Bob and for Best friend!
