Pictures are great, but Beverly was even better. She made me feel like I was there in a way that pictures never could. Thank you, Beverly, from the bottom of my heart all the way to the top.

It does make me kind of wish I had put Nillyfest over visiting friends and family at the holidays, but I hope that I can connect with SFistas when I come down, probably in January, and with LAistas at the Big Damn Premiere!

We're having FUN.

mart, you weren't supposed to pick up aynone - what do you mean?

DX, I did not get the original message. I got Nora's question on whether she should reply, and your answer to that, but not the original.

We're having FUN.

Crap. That makes no sense. Did it get stuck in a spam filter? I sent it from my martzmountain address intead of my b.org address.

I did get your reply. I hate computers.

Met Teppy and Lexine, and Lexine's pretty daughter K for lunch at the Ferry building. We toured the food possibilities twice before making a decision. Lexine and I had the roasted provencale style food. Teppy had the seared swordfish sandwich with mango chutney and K had chowder and nibbles all around. I had roasted lamb. All very savory and tasty. Lexine is very fun, and easy-going and the most insane A's fan I've personally ever met. K showed us her surgery scar on her wrist and we gave her advice on what to wear in her upcoming Freshman year of high school. (Teppy and I advocated industrial hooker boots.) Afterwards, Jack Daniels gelato for Tep and Lex, Recchiutti more-expensive-than-god chocolate for K, and the banana cream tartlette for me.

Then we took a good walk along the waterfront on a spectacular day in SF, with a sweeping view of the Bay Bridge. I left them to return to work, as they headed toward PacBell.

I don't have a spam filter for it to get stuck in, and I've gotten other things from your martzmountain address, before.

I have it now. Oy. In fact, I had it then. It was next to spam [Tropical Paradise Awaits Yourefe] and got deleted when the spam did, by erm...user error. Sorry to be such a pill.

Okay. That's good.

Oh sweet heavenly Jesus.
