Aislinn is at school tonight and has no internet except at my apartment.

I'm finishing the 2009 edition of very large ICD-9-CM coding book after converting it completely to the software-based book generator/compiler that I wrote over the last three months.

You'll be missed. I might not have started slogging if it wasn't for you. I think I asked Corianton to settle a dispute as to whether a salacious word, which I've sadly forgotten now, was hyphenated, two words, or one word. It might have been "buttmunch". You sided with me, and ever since I've been an Amy Kate Hornbooster.

At first I couldn't believe that Amy Kate was leaving, and then I felt really put out that she would do such a thing. I started to feel like if only she would stay a little longer maybe it would be all right, and then I was just sad about it. But now I feel like maybe things will be OK after all.

Next month, can we be at someplace with those absurd child barriers around the bar (the ones at El Chupacabra are the most laughable) so I can strap the man child to me?
