Good evening Gyre,
I'm sorry it has taken me so long to reply. I've spent the last few evenings with my nose buried in The Time Traveler's Wife. In answer to your question, I am well. I'm feeling a bit down after reading such a sad book, but all in all everything is wonderful. I had a great evening with my wife and son.
He is such a loving little boy, that it is hard to feel sad for long when he is around. I am now convinced that snuggles and tickles from a two year old are powerful medicine.
How are you on this fine spring evening?

Buonasera BookJumper,
I hope this evening finds you pain-free and happy. Wait let me think about that. You're in the UK right? That would put you five hours ahead of me. So your clock is rapidly approaching 4AM, and you are hopefully sound asleep and pain-free with a pleasant day stretched out before you.
There, thats better. My wishes aside, how are you? Please tell me that you've had good news from the doctors, or your jaw has somehow miraculously repaired itself. Me, I just finished The Time Traveler's Wife this evening, and I'm feeling a bit raw. Such a sad, sad story.
I think maybe tomorrow I will pick up To Kill a Mockingbird, so that I can be filled up with the warm love of a father for his daughter. That should repair the damage that Audrey Niffenegger has done to me.

Bonsoir Genevieve,
Thank you very much for your post. Your words and the images they evoke are beautiful. It makes me feel warm to have your praise, and I take great pleasure from the knowledge that you enjoy reading what I have written here.
As you guessed, I am a sensitive soul, which can be good, but sometimes it makes me stubborn or angry or ornery. Its not always easy. I just finished reading The Time Traveler's Wife and now it hurts. I'm sore at the author for putting me in this place. Such is the doubled edge sword that is sensitivity.
But enough about that.
I hope you don't mind that I snooped, but I read some of your posts to Poppy about your daughter. She sounds so beautiful, and what is even more beautiful is the way you write about her, and how your love for her comes out in every sentence. Thank you very much for sharing of yourself, and thank you for taking the time to read the things I have shared. Faisons-le encore.

Howdy BookJumper I don't typically say "Howdy" but it is the most distinctly American greeting I can think of. For some reason it felt right.
I'm sorry to hear that you're in pain. I hope that by now you're sleeping soundly and pain is nothing but a distant echo in your dreams. I wish there were something I could do to help. Sadly all I can do is wish you: get well soon.

I've been known to say things like, "I can't complain," but really I could. I've had a cold for almost two weeks now. Nonetheless, I won't complain, because really I've got nothing to complain about. I have a beautiful, loving 2 year old son, and within the next month and a half I'll have a beautiful baby girl too. I couldn't ask for anything more.
