> [@Wile\_E](#): > > Congrats! Sounds great but I was kind of hoping you were J-Lo’s new personal assistant. So was she. 😉 Thanks for your happy thoughts, all – I’ve calmed down from sheer giddiness, but when I woke up at 4:45 this morning, I couldn’t get back to sleep. Went online, won three games of Scrabble in a row … 😃 ---
