Aha!

Just wanted to smugly inform you all that the correct answer is blue.

And now I'm going to bed. Way too late (early?) to be up right now.

OCD much?

I'm glad to see that there is a new, rising generation of obsessive-compulsives out there. In Primary today they played a game with construction-paper stepping stones leading from the back of the room to the front to symbolize keeping the commandments. Each class got a turn to walk across, stepping on the stones.

And after each child had stomped, jumped or skipped on the paper stones, no less than three children ran up to the path to replace, straighten, and adjust.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does stuff like that.

Wow.

Yup.

Just finished Breaking Dawn.

Way to go, Steph.

Not only did you do an amazing job of tying off the massive amounts of loose ends left over from the first three books, along with taking a HUGE step forward in bringing your writing skills closer up to the level of your storytelling capabilities, but you've also achieved what I thought was a complete impossibility.

You've finally made me like -- and maybe even love -- your main character.

And I loved every minute of it.

Thank you.

DUDE.

You MUST click here. Immediately. Because it will disappear on the 20th of July.

But it will be oh so worth your time.

Argh, or: L'il Orphan Ellie: the saga begins.

So Shallow Man is flying out tomorrow morning for Lima, where he'll be for the next two months. I get to go down on Aug. 8, but that's still six weeks that he'll be gone without me. Which is not really that big of a deal, I know, but when you take into account the fact that during the four years we've been married we've only spent one night apart, it seems like a long time. Grrr!

At least Lady Type and my Margot are going to come and stay with me for awhile during the summer, but I'm still going to miss my boy. *sniff*

Well, off to finish with packing, errands, etc. At least we found a theater with a midnight showing of Wall-E so we can see it together before he goes. :)

Classic

Okay, okay, okay. For those with tender sensibilities, and due to circumstances beyond our control, this post will henceforward be performed by....

sock puppets? One moment, folks...

Hey, Merv, where's Rex Harrison? No, really, why is there not a copy of Rex Harrison's real version anywhere on the internet? This was the best we could get? Okay, whatever...

Ladies and gentlemen, Professor Higgins. Sort of.
