Did you go to the Andrew Bird concert on Saturday? He was fantastic.

Yes! Oh, yes I did indeed! Wasn't that beautiful? Everyone I know is tired of hearing about it, so maybe I'll talk to you about it instead.

so true. I'm going to try to do as much reading as possible today, so I can fully enjoy the 3 day weekend (Thanksgiving on Monday here).

Yay for girly hair talk :p

Quite a bent indeed. Thank you though -- I look forward to reading more. I guess you're pretty good at typing now, huh?

I hope you are doing really well.

I hope we eat quiche soon, too, if you've got the time. I've got the Pyrex pie plates and the best no-roll crust recipe n all tha quichey skillz, yo.

I mostly am doing really well.

I think we should make this a quiche a trois, because the other two of us have neither pie plates nor crust recipe. Let's do this thing.

I'm mostly free nights, and I'm free most nightly.
