I am sooo staring down crazy deadlines tonight, but could not resist popping in to catch up on this thread... you all are far too entertaining and at the rate you're adding pages to this thread, if I don't keep up, I'll never catch up!
Oh ALLE!!!!!!
I'm soooo happy your birthday week has been so outstanding! One for the memory books! And thanks sooooo much for sharing your "Alex time" with us. Your reporting has been so much better than anything the paid professionals have done, and as if that wasn't enough, I about fell off my chair when I finished your lovely write up and scrolled down to see that you shot and posted VIDEO! You are really too good to us! Massive amounts of good karma coming your way, woman!
And dear
Fleur, scroll back thru this thread... I'm afraid I have dibs on the white-shawl chick's job.
However, since you were so kind as to offer everyone total access to Alex if you were to "assume the position," and in the spirit of
Alle's generosity example and
Grace's constant lament about Alex's lack of competent "peepz", how about if you, me AND the white-shawl chick "handle" Alex?
The more the merrier, I say! (but I get the good parts... dibs and all, ya know?
... and yes,
Alle, that includes his brain, because that's where his lovely personality emanates from
). But
Fleur, if you ever again mention Carville and King as movie leads, I revoke this offer!
Also,
Grace, thanks for posting the links to the other coverage! So much Alex goodness, I'm so happy for him - he is really enjoying this. He so deserves it after the ML and 3R disappointments he had to deal with. It's great to see that ear-to-ear grin again!
Finally,
Red and all you UKers, I have my fingers, toes and eyes crossed for you that you get some Alex time too! You deserve to get out from under that ash cloud and see some lovely "sights."
Good for her. I hope she has fun. (How could she NOT have fun??)
