No, it was there, I swear! I remember putting it in and discussing it with Erica!

Ok, I knew you really didn't forget me... just teasing... :P

I think I actually deleted you when I tried to delete something else. Then again, with the day I'm having, my BookMooch gaffe and all, who knows what's going on with me?

Oh, I just thought of something...
I'm on Firefox so maybe I was looking at a cached version...

Well, you and me both... I did something exceedingly stupid this morning... I blame it on the lack of coffee :P

Let's blame it on the snow. I'm trying to recall the Tour Manager from his office; there are only accidents on either side of the onramp he'll use to leave work and the offramp he'll use to get home! (in other words, his route is sandwiched between the two accidents)

Right now I'm thinking that the snow will be a very nice excuse to take a vacation day tomorrow...
Of course we'll have to see if we actually get all the snow that we are supposed to be getting today and tomorrow.

I've been trying to visit all the reviews and leave a little comment -- though Andrew's blog ate my longish comment :( -- so I'm waiting to see the others pop up!

Can I repost Racy Li's Ninja for my debut?

Should I email Erica, too? Or is one hostess sufficient?
