Short and Sweet

No pics, no vids, no bling. Just a quick note to say a) we are okey-dokey (for you, Smash. We know how you worry!), had a great day at SC in Dubai. Robert Oaks and spouse spoke, as did our entire SP, and we had lunch with the Red Deer Stewarts, which is always a blast. Melonee talks a mile a minute, and Jamie stalks you with the most pre-meditated funnies in the history of funny. Jacob is a laugh riot--a hybrid of the two. They say hi to all who care.

Also (shame on us, but when you're in Dubai, you have to strike while it's in the mire, if Metamix we mayphor) replaced Riley's guitar today, and picked up a hard case. He's raring to go, and presses ad nauseam for an electric. But he's fired up about it and this will motivate the latent genius.

Last night: Jon picked up three suits, four shirts, and four ties at Pierre Cardin's 75% off sale. What would normally have cost around $3500 CDN cost a mere $800. Has now joined world of grownups, and will be wearing suits to work most days, until we hit the mid-40s, anyway.

Next purchase: iPhone. We know, we know: but by golly he actually has appointments and stuff these days, and the old organizational methods no longer pass muster, cut the mustard, or corner Custer, mister: and the matter must be mastered minus the muttering.

Shout-outs:

Deborah: welcome to the 21st c! Next stop: MSN! Then, we rule the world!

Hobo: We misses you, too, filfy hoboeses. Sniff. Don't forget our birfday presents.

HMac: saw it. Welcome back. And congrats on the front pages.

Ahnos: has been discovered, but we shall protect his/her identity with our very lives (or at least with fingernail clippers and a spatula, unless you offer us a sandwich).


Straw-poll: we are considering summering at BYUH, where I've been offered a class to defray housing and eating costs, or in Provo, where the library actually has books and stuff, and there's a greater variety of things to do--you know, besides getting stung by jellyfish and averting one's eyes.

Where would we be most visited?
