Marginally related to E&E.

Leslie, when are you leaving for London and meet Louise?  I know you mentioned the date, but it’s buried somewhere in E&E thread. 

I can answer that.  Saturday.  I will be flying in early Saturday morning, and Leslie's conference lets out after lunch, and we will be palling around until we both leave to go back to our respective countries Monday.

Okay okay hold off sending copies of "A Second Chance!"  I got one from two different sources.  Anybody who would like the Word copy of any of the four books, please pm your REAL email address to me, or email me at [email protected] and you can have the complete (corrected) versions of the First Draft of The ENTIRE SERIES!

My memery has not fooled me. I sort of remember it is the beginning of Aug.

In that case, you have a nice and safe trip even with the awarkful out-bound itinerary.  Enjoy your time in London and meeting with Louise.  Check in with us when you can. :)

All right, informal E&E poll:

Which pet name do you find most offensive?


Pookie

Lumpkin

Snookems

Please reply in 50 words or less.

I dislike them all---in equal intensity--I think endearments have to based on the people involved, and those are just too pat and steriotypical---like comic book endearments, baby names don't do it.  I like Garfield's teddy bear Pookie  .   
that's for the POLL!!                                                                                                                           


 

No Nic, you are not the only one who doesn't like watermelon, I hate that fruit and flavor, can't stand it in cotton candy, gum, or vitamin pills yech!!!

I don't necessarily want Dupree to be Bi-but I could stand it if he was, I also don't really think it is that strange to be long distances from each other either when military service is involved, he just got out, and she is still in--what difference does that make exactly??
Like no one travels away from loved ones due to work anymore??   I used to date a guy 3 states away when he was in the army to, and it wasn't hard. 
After we split, he married a service woman in his company.  Worked for me too, I like her.
