Hi, R.
Thanks for the healing vibes. Tooth is MUCH better. Enjoy your celebration. You've earned it. My writing - Jody's gone over to the dark side. It's a lot more fun writing about dark than light. Believe it or not, one of the hardest things to write is a love scene. There's the head-over-heels, crazy kind of love, and there's the stand-by-me kind of love. I spent a good part of yesterday listening to love songs. (Songs do it better than poems IMHO.)
Off to the metaphorical races.
