We just hired me a minion who I'm pretty sure is smarter and more clever than I, and less of a procrastinator. And a better (read: less reluctant) coder than I.

And will make your life easier? I love those people!

So sorry, ita. Your poor friend.

ETA: And I keep forgetting to wish travel mercies on Dana. So, consider them wished.

Oh, ita, my condolences to her. That happened to my family with my mom's dad while we were visiting dad's. One minute you are dithering to try to get there fast, the next...slow spin to figure out what now.

Oh, ita. Absolutely awful.

Careful with the jelly, smonster. Sweets don't always sit right for me when I've got stomach ick.

It's reduced sugar (with no artificial sweetener) and the pectin is supposed to help. But thanks.

Oh, ita, your poor friend. How awful.

smonster, feel better. Dana, I hope you're home by now, or at least safely on the plane.

I need me a minion.

ita - your poor friend. So horrible.

toe socks: one of my friends gave me some for Christmas. (They have cranes on them.) And they are excellent for wearing with zori. . . although toe mittens might work better for me than toe gloves.

I'm sorry for your friend, ita.

ita, I am so sorry for your friend.

ita, so sorry. That's so awful.

I'm so sorry for your friend's loss, ita.

I might be a little nuts. I keep going into my basement to see how clear the floor is: [link] And it isn't even organized! But progress I can see. Bonus stained and oiled deck set: [link]

I need to get a new camera. iTouch is ok for on the go, but I miss the flash and pixels and shit.
