Ted has had a very successful birthday party. :) He made a stunningly yummy lasagna, then got a whole bunch of good loot (cooking stuff, Farscape, LotR DVDs, a circular saw…) and then we ate the stunningly good German chocolate cake I made. :) Now we are bloated, like warthogs, but we are happy!

Came home, made a tuna melt for lunch (*YUM*!), Shaun checked the mail came back with, thank HEAVENS, my SASP (Self Addressed Stamped Postcard) from the publisher! One puts this in along with one’s manuscript so the publisher, upon…
if you’re happy and you know it, bomb Iraq!
Everybody must go read this right now. A sample: The song is sung to the melody of “if you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands” If you cannot find Osama, bomb Iraq.
