Flickr is blocked at work so I missed the MEAT of this post until today. DANG IT!

As if you’d come to Ottawa and not see me! We have Settlers of Catan, you know, plus LOADS of other board games in the same genre. And oh so many knitting questions…

HI to you too! It was truly FAB to meet you in person.

For the record, it’s Joanna, not Joanne, and my sis is Cathy, not Kathy.

Steph and Jorge – I’m about 5′8″ with no heels, and I was wearing heels that day, so let’s say I’m about 5′9″ in that pic. My friend Steve who was with us is about 5′11″, and he was taller than George. I’d actually though he was going to be shorter than that.

John – considering the lack of sleep and all the hands shaken, it’s miraculous I didn’t come down with anything! Yes, it was certainly productive, and I’m still playing catch-up at work

Jorge – I’m strongly considering making the trek to Ottawa for the movie marathon, if Dave and Sarah would have me.

Jen – You are brave to have driven in that weather.

Larocque – It was awesome to have you over! We enjoyed your company and hope you can come this way again soon! Hopefully you can stay longer, drink and play more Wii.

Speaking of wee…

Steph – Strombo is pretty short. And he would never let himself be your bit on the side because during a sex television special, he staunchly spoke out against cheating and/or mixed bag sexathons.

And after all that, my friend bailed and I went up without my stuff on that Saturday!

Just made the trip alone this weekend to pick it all up – thanks to the engineers who invented fold away seats in minivans!

Glad to hear you had a good week.

Sounds like you had a productive, but fun week!

I’m hyperventilating RIGHT now. I LOVE George. If Mr. Happy would allow it, I would ask George to be my bit on the side.

Question – how tall is he? The reason I ask is because I met a few television hosts a couple years ago – (Jian Ghomeshi, Seamus O’Regan, & some local hosts) – was astonished to find that many of them were of smaller stature than I would have guessed.
