Amazingly, they paid me. I used quite a bit of it toward sending the kids to summer camp, and got a few things just for me.

Sugs, you're a sweetie. And boy have you been posting good lately, as always! I haven't had time to read much, but I've seen you slam dunk several times in the last few days.

I can't wait to read the article, Neakie-Poo! Congrats to you again! Mrs. W P.S. Dude, I hear they have clues for sale at Walmart...You're an accountant, right? Bet you can figure out how to save up and buy one...

Mom always forgets the 1/2 a book, which means she forgets Neaksis' half, too. Mom, if you hurry, maybe you can edit it before she sees it.

What good would it do me to edit me when I can't edit you?   You are SO being sent to grammar detention!!  A brief lesson en Espanol.That would be "mis amigas". Plural noun, plural modifier. And if it's a mixed group, which it IS with DUDE included, you would use the masculine form and everybody would be "amigos". However, since the "friend" part was a wee, tad ambiguous, I'm not going to quibble about your calling everyone girls.  tl

The grammar is indefensible. I won't try. But the amigas, my gurlz, I was just being lazy. I had thanked all the other well-wishers except Melody Lane and Mrs. Wondering. They have long names, so instead of typing them out, I just called them mi [sic] amigas. And instead of saving time, I have now not only had to type out their whole names, but an additional lengthy explanation besides. Yay me!

I confess to the WORLD that I bow in awe before the wizardry of your efficiency. There's just nothing like saving time, is there? tl
