If only my life were that exotic... Basically, the shit hit the fan at work and I didn't have enough time to do anything here but keep an eye on the reviews and the provider ads--and my budget's been so shot since July that it didn't do me any good to keep my eye on the ads, since I couldn't do any hobbying, anyway. Fortunately, that's about to change soon.

OTOH, your recent review of Sierra Colleen reminds me that I have an aunt in Chattanooga who I really need to visit sometime soon, and since my unemployed cousin (her daughter) and her son have moved in with her, I don't have to make any excuses about needing a hotel room nor account for why I need to visit "a friend" they've never heard of until that visit. Win on at least two levels.

I'm not sure, but I think it's Sherlock Holmes, after his fall and reported demise at the falls in Sweden during his fight with Professor Moriarty.

Well, the Reichenbach Falls are in Switzerland, not Sweden ["Oh, come on! They're both European countries beginning with "S", that's close enough!" I hear you say], but you did get more of it than I expected anyone to, so I'm happy enough).

You got the speaker.

Dallas, my preferred retirement plan would be to go on Jeopardy! and win a few million dollars, but I'm such a man-slut I'd probably spend it all trying to have a session with every provider on ECCIE.
