I GIVE UP, I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!

[paragraphs]

I have to go buy ANOTHER copy of Word 2007. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME!

The first was stolen by The Little Jerk Thief, and the second, well--I have ripped my room and desk apart, and fail to find it, ANYWHERE!!!

So I will buy another. A third. That is ANOTHER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS!!!!! I have tried to deal with Wordperfect, which I love, but it doesn't talk with Word 07 very well, and I have Word 03 at work, and and and... I am frustrated! And my son really really needs it for the next semester. He's made do without it but really needs Powerpoint at home.

So. I give. Merry Christmas to me...this is what I'll spend my Christmas bonus on, I suppose.

Whee.

C, shivering in bed with Maddox at my feet, rereading old writing, and resurrecting one of them

well, i just have to have him to the place at 2 and picked up at 4....so...basically...you could meet me at B&N around 2, then when he is done I can pick him up and take him home, leaving yuo at the bookstore, then come back, resume mad crazy writing brilliance, then when we get sick and tired of that, we can go eat somewhere. I insist we go downtown though, and tromp around, as it will be lovely. Then you can go back to your hotel for the night, I go home....then next day, again! Except this time he has to be there at 12. Grin.

We've only been working on this a year and a bit, you know...I just think they shove kids on teh road too soon these days. 17 is plenty young enough to start navigating the madness. But he HAS to have it done before the end of the year, so we're barely making it. WOOT!

Sounds like something vaguely resembling a plan!

yeah, guess it would help to tell you WHERE the B&N is... Uh.... LOL

Let me find that out and hope you check your email before you leave tomorrow.

My flight from Omaha is 6:55am, so I don't know if I'll check in the morning, but if I don't see your message tonight, I'll call you when I land and we can sort out directions ... the car rental place ought to be able to help me.

Yawn.

You will be sleepy.
