Yup, that's how Dennis feels.  It's so hard for him to be away for 6 weeks
at a time.  Well, it's only 5 weeks now, but who knows how long that will
last?  The 5 or 6 weeks off is wonderful of course.  But it seems to go by
so much faster than the time he's away.  But...YAY!!!!...he's coming home
tomorrow and I'm headed to Bangkok to meet him at the airport and then we're
spending our regular night in the fancy hotel which the company pays for :-)

Sandpaper kisses, a cuddle and a purr. I have an alarm clock that's covered
in fur!

I sure understand that. My attachment to home and all things "normal" comes
from spending so much time in the hospital, and never knowing when I will end
up in the ER and admitted. Dorothy & Toto are right, "There's no place like
home."

Wow!  And Texas also participates in MegaMillions which is at 100 Mill
for Tuesday, right?   There could be two very happy ticket holders in
Texas this week.  :-)  Maybe I should come down for a visit to the
nearest Texas 7-11.  :-)  I think the odds of winning the Texas Lotto
are something like 3 x better than winning megamillions.

I haven't read any of them but I we do have them all.  I hunted them
down one Christmas and gave them in hard cover to my husband.  It is
kind of funny.  This was 1984 before anyone ever dreamed what the
internet would be and I was in a used bookstore asking if they had any
of the titles I hadn't run across yet.  The owner said no.  I asked if
there was some kind of used bookstore warehouse he could order them
from.  He went on a tirade about how in a perfect world I could just
access some database and all of the used bookstores that had the book I
wanted would pop up and I could order them from who ever had the best
price but it wasn't like that was ever going to happen , was it?  Guess
I won't be asking him for any lottery numbers.  ;-)

Thanks for the recommendation.  I am a sci fi fan so maybe I'll take a look!
