21! Wow. Happy birthday to Alex.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

21? That’s wild, Susan!
I hope the crosswordistas are having a good time!

Because books.
And Amy must be what, 27, 28?
Don't be silly, brenda. I'm ... 29.
Happy birthday, Alex!
And thank you for all the birthday wishes!

We had a blast. And planning a return trip next year. Jesse was on fire!

Happy, Happy Birthday, Amy!
And Alex, wow -- happy 21st!
The tournament is over, and, you guys, SO much fun. And I say this having ranked WAY near the bottom. (Setting a baseline!) My compatriots on the other hand -- 👌. Impressive.
I will be lobbying for anyone who even has an inkling they might go next year to just say, "Yes!" Fun event, but low-key as far as competitions go, very friendly crossword nerds, really good restaurants literally across the street from the hotel, Buffistas, some of their cool friends... I'm just saying.

She was! And you were not without some sparky heat yourself, friend...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It was so good to see everyone in and around the crosswords!! And I was on fire, if I do say so myself, ha. In the top third!!

That's awesome, Jesse! Exceeded your expectations!
