  1. Oh, Lord, that’s like my writing the last few days. Like the brain slug is attached firmly to my scalp 🙂

  2. Yeeey, Lindsey! Congrats on getting teh published!
    Actually, I found this e-mail funny – sounds like someone put the German handy book through google translator :p

  3. Mysti – perhaps dumping some salt over your head will get rid of the slug! 😉

    Stef – you could be right about the Google translator! And thank you!
