Looking at your list, and thought:

Reading again! You know that could change your life, don't you? Oh, that's what you were hoping for? Well, you've made a good start. Keep up the good work!

This early morning (late night?) chuckle brought to you by Save the Electrons, Ltd.

I sent a link of this post to C.J., and she got a chuckle out of you and Steve reading it aloud.

Well, yanno. It was either read it aloud or duel for the honor of reading it first. Since we were both on deadline, practicality ruled.

Thank goodness she didn't have to hear what we did to the atevi words...

Also thank you for standing up and being counted as a Georgette Heyer fan. A much underappreciated author. Too many people dismiss her and lump her in with all that fluffy, overheated drivel that has become known as the "Regency Romance." She invented the genre, and nobody since has been able to even come close to her well crafted plots, well fleshed out characters, or the elegance of her prose. The lady did her homework on all counts and it shows. As a friend said, "She's Jane Austen without as many hard words."
