Heather -- Congratulations on making partner! How awesome for you! Sounds like you did it in record time!
Kathy -- so sorry to hear about your accident. I hope you recovery is quick and uneventful. I can't imagine how stressful this must be for you. Take good care of yourself.
lacool -- meant to thank you for another great song for my mix. Am going to have to add that near 3 hours! Very cool words!
Christa -- LOVE the new picture in your siggie!
Not sure the Evil Queen likes the competition!
Mel -- congratulations on DD's National Junior Honor Society induction. Awesome!

Speaking of packing and carryons, do you think it would be "cruel and unusual punishment" to ask Dx to bring home my stinky marathon clothes with him since he leaves Sunday night It would be nice not to have to deal with them at the resort!
Now THAT is love!
Funny story: when I was a college senior, I lived in an on-campus townhouse with laundry facilities at a central location. One day, when Howard and I were leaving my unit, we heard a young guy begging a young woman "If you really loved me, you'd do my laundry." I think Howard took that very seriously, because he has done almost all the laundry in our 21 years of marriage.
Jodi -- I think you won't have a problem finding food options. You might want to check out the menus on
www.allearsnet.com to plan some meals ahead of time. I know we are doing O'Hana's Thursday night, Trails End Friday night, LeCellier Saturday night and leaving ourselves open to whim for Sunday and Monday. Lots of healthy choices around.
Honeibee-- Sorry your trip wasn't completely awesome. That COULDN'T be because it wasn't WDW, could it?
Heather -- I HAVE to have that shirt and I am glad to know that neither you nor Lily jinxed yourselves by buying it at the expo. I have heard that most of the stuff at the expo cannot be bought anywhere else or after the events. So, I am definitely going to the expo with credit card in hand!
mazzy-- be sure to wear something lime green so we can spot you and drag you into the fold!
Helen -- I am really curious to hear what they tell you about the hip pain. I am having pain in my right hip but I think it is only when I use the treadmill (though I haven't done a LW outside in a couple weeks, so I guess I will test that theory on Saturday). Not sure whether to use heat or ice or to baby it or to push it. Would love any advice.
Honeibee and Colleen -- Thank you so much for the compliments. I just can't remember the last time anyone other than my husband or children told me I am beautiful or pretty. Sure, I've heard "you have a nice smile" or "that sweater looks nice on you" or "I like your haircut" or "your hair looks pretty like that" and all of that makes me feel really good.
But not the straight-on-make-my-heart-sing stuff! So, the compliments here have been very exciting for me. Thank you.
I am so excited about the prospect of seeing John Bingham in person, though I have no illusions of actually meeting him. I am still trying to grapple with the idea of 14,000 people in one place at one time at 4 a.m. at the start of the 1/2. WOW!!
