New York, New York

My bags are packed, Rupert the Gnome is safely ensconced in a box full of bubble wrap and packing peanuts, and in roughly four hours from now I will be arriving in my favorite city on earth.

corenrind and penmage, I'll be giving you guys a call at some point after I've made it to B.'s-friend's-cousin's apartment and gotten settled a little. Navah, I'll try my best to get in touch with you before sunset.

I'll be returning late afternoon/early evening on Monday. No one do anything too exciting while I'm gone, y'hear?

To resurrect a ldy-ism I haven't heard in far too long: Hugs to those who want 'em, those who need 'em, and those who don't run away quickly enogh!
