A week from today, I expect to be sitting somewhere in Union Square having a giant chai latte.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
EhBeth--
Please, smell some chocolate for me.
I have something I was supposed to deliver to Mistress Naughty.
I'll make alternate arrangements.
EhBeth--
My curiosity has been piqued.
This time next week I should be on the Staten Island Ferry with my tea and sugar stick. ahhhhhhhhhhhh

Gotta track down Bernie for the store info.
Just realized it will be Lola's birthday on Friday.
ehBeth--
Please give her a birthday hug for me.
EhBeth, the belly-dancing, huggy octopus, a woman of infinite interest and sagacity.
Make it four.
At this rate, you'll be hugging her for hours!
Poor Lola, birthday girl with an scandalous octopussy hug..
All of us jewel bedecked..

Any New York readers wanna go for a little Bryant Park adventure next Sunday?
Wish I could, but I'll be out of town on Sunday.
given what's going on there right now, I'm gonna grab every Atookaian I can when I get there and huggggggggg 'em
EhBeth--
You are a woman who relishes a challenge.
The building involved today is six blocks downtown from our store. I didn't hear the impact and wasn't aware until someone passing on the street told me of a plane hitting a building. I got down to a location two blocks away perhaps ten minutes after impact. The fire department response was amazingly quick and they had hoses on the fire (from inside) perhaps twenty minutes after impact and the flames were extinquished in about another twenty minutes.
Police, ambulances and fire vehicles just descended on the area from all directions. I've never seen anything quite like it.
Thanks for the on-scene report, Bernie. I'm way the hell downtown at my office and trying to figure out what's going on by checking various news websites, but they're all so contradictory and hysterical they're not much use.
