Well, **Canby** and I are in… where was that again? Las Vegas! Those who know our real name can reach us at the MGM Grand. Everyone else can lump it. 😛 We’ll see you at the Mandalay Bay tomorrow. ---

I have **Zette** at my house. And as charming as she is, you may never see her again! (Seriously, she was more tired than she thought she would be, so she’s just recharging here instead of staying up all night. But she is damn charming.) I’m dropping her off bright and early tomorrow, wherever it is she wants to go. So expect her at the Strip around 7 or 7:30 AM. (I know, I know. I have to work!) And I agree with **Diane** : WHOO HOO! ---

I mean, I’m figuring the kilt is out, right? (yes, I’m asking about the proposed dress code.) \*\* I’m wearing my corset. I figure where else _but_ Vegas would this be appropriate wedding attire? So if I can wear that, you can wear your kilt. Please? 😉 ---

I think I probably cost myself an extra arm and a leg by getting it together so late in the game, but I’m now booked and I’ll see y’all tomorrow evening. ---
