Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You definitely do not need to get anything done other than taking care of yourself #1 and Tim #2. (Tim has lots of other people taking care of him, also put your own oxygen mask on first.)

Steph:

Oh, yeah. They were super understanding -- didn't even ask about when I thought I'd have my articles back; just told me they were praying for Tim and asking me to keep them updated.

You do not need to worry about this stuff today. I hope you will let them know that you are out of commission for a day or two and take care of yourself and Tim.

Forget about work today. Take a nap if you can and then go see Tim.

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Take care of Tim. Work will understand.

As I sometimes remind people in my office, if something doesn't get done, no one's going to die.

So, Steph, take care of yourself and Tim. (Take a picture of his piercings ... if nothing else, you'll both get a laugh out of it sometime in the future.)

Steph, what every is saying. You are having a family emergency. The work can wait or be reassigned.

As to cats, both my cats died at 12 when I was hoping they'd live much longer. You never know.

That said, Oz who was already a fat cat, has gotten fatter over the winter. I guess chasing Clio was a major source of exercise for him. I changed to a healthier, no grain brand, hoping it would be more satiating, but he's as food oriented as ever. I am trying to play with him more. As much of an urinating jerk he can be, I would like to keep him happy and healthy.

In completely frivolous me-me-ME news: by this time tomorrow, I will be on a plane going to DISNEYLAND. I have no attention span for fussy project managers right now. CAN'T HEAR YOU, GOING TO DISNEYLAND.

Yay, Jilli! Have fun!
