Tons of ~ma to him,-t. How old is he?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Glad to hear he is alert, -t. How scary!
So we went kayaking on the Charles yesterday morning (which was awesome) & evidently there was a body found in the water in a place we passed right after we went past it. Yikes!

He's 10.
Yikes indeed, lisah! Glad it wasn't you who found it...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Aw, but that would have been so exciting!

Jesse, you have a weird concept of "exciting"...
In case one of my authors turns up mysteriously dead from a fist punched THROUGH the internet, you guys were with me the whole time, right?
(We sent him a PDF of his article to review, and he managed to save it in a different format that I can't open, and he says he's "not good with technology" and doesn't know how to save it as a PDF, even though THE NATIVE FILE IS A PDF OH MY GOD YOU JUST CLICK "SAVE". He has sent me 10 emails in 45 minutes to explain all this and ask for help. When I explain it's not actually our purview to help authors with computer problems and maybe someone him his IT department can help, he says he has trouble with his IT department AND I THINK I KNOW WHY.)

I was so surprised to see you here in Utah, but we had a lovely lunch anyway.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
On the positive side of life, we hadn't received any Halloween party invitations yet (there's at least one friend-of-a-friend with a GIANT house who has a huge shindig every year to which friends-of-friends get invited), BUT we got the invitation today. Woo!
So that means I can pull the trigger on buying a long red wig and foofy blouse to be Hot Topic Katrina (I actually have everything else I need for the costume in my closet, to my slight chagrin) and Tim can start growing his facial hair to be Skinny Jeans Ichabod Crane (he has EVERYTHING he needs for that costume, because it's regular 21st-century clothes [yes, he owns skinny jeans] and his long flowing locks pulled back in a ponytail). Yippee!
t edit I think I even have an emerald pendant -- not as big as Katrina's, but I'm not really shooting for screen-accurate cosplay here, just a Halloween costume mostly for my own amusement.
