Hmmmm. Maybe if we save some money we could actually do a Montana trip before the fall semester starts? I'll look into it.
You two really will enjoy each other. And he's great with kids. I was just talking about your three today, and how he'd get along with each of them... I know he'll really click with James, and of course Mark likes almost everyone. I warned him he might have to worship Eliza slightly, because she pretty much skipped princess and headed straight for queen and knows what sort of attention is her due.
Oh, and you realize that Eliza will be totally confused by "Tess is married to Kaer, Kaer loves Tess, Tess loves my mom, my mom loves Tess, my mom and Kaer like each other..."
She might not be all that confused. By tradition wisdom my newphew should be confused by the gay couples my brother and sister in law know, but he totally isn't.
I would love to. I was just telling him that you're a local... he was looking at your user pic and saying that you're very attractive (I think his words were "she's hot," actually). Just so you know. :)
Semester ends in 3 weeks or so, and then I'll have a lot more time and less insanity. Meantime, though, if we find a time we're not both busy, I could use distraction from the stress and crazymaking stuff. My schedule is of course kinda tight, but I have time after about 7 most weekdays, and some time on weekends. Do you have a favorite spot?
Oh, and yeah, there's a Mr. Tess. Married him last August and we're all newlywed and stuff, which basically means we treat each other just like we did the year we lived together before getting married, but other people treat us differently.
lessee, maybe the Coffee By Design across from the USM dorm on Congress Street 7:30-ish tomorrow? we can meet anywhere, coffee is always just the convenient pretext. ;-)
I haven't been there in a while and it's definitely convenient. I'm working on a giant project thing tonight, and by sevenish I'll be very grateful for an excuse to get out of my own head for a while.
I'll plan on showing up unless I don't hear from you by, um, 7. And maybe anyway. I wonder if we'll be able to recognize each other? I'll probably still be wearing my purple sweater...

I think Mr. Tess liked it too.

I really do need to meet him, you know.
Guess what I found today? Pics of you and Eliza doing dishes in September 2001.

It's still a when, not an if, in my head. :)

James: "OW! Mom, Mark hit me with the Clean-Vue Powertrack Revolution Bagless Vacuum* instruction manual!"
* I probably got that totally wrong, but you get the idea

It'll be good for her.

He's a good guy. Non-axe-murderer. Quite shy.

I'm the one with all the hair. And I really do go by Tess in real life a fair amount, so that'll work.
