Pio, friend, I did understand your analogies, but was just trying to ask gently how you were doing... Death is hard, and there's not much that makes it any easier, is there? Spring would be good.

Legolas's hairdresser-- I don't know. But that herringbone braid in teh back sure is cool. And yes, many a morning I've spent taking it out and trying *again* to get it presetable (forget the herringbone, plain old french-braid...) if only my hair wasn't so frizzy and weak and brittle and so dratted THIN...

My main consolation would be that Cate Blanchett wore a wig. However, daily I am reminded that my boss has thick, luxuriant, cascading, wavy, shiny glossy shimmering hair, that would braid like a dream.

Okay, so I'm not SUPPOSED to be jealous (covetous?) of someone else's hair. How terribly unspiritual... Welcome to my pettiness.

Doug-- way cool about the baby! And I hope the position materializes...
