Heh, I’m glad you liked this Mark. Funny how just those little scraps of what would be nonsense words to other people can be a deeply personal trip down memory lane. It’s almost as strong as memories triggered by smell or even a song.

Thanks Mark! Your input on the story is spot on. I had thought about it and weighed the abruptness of the ending with trying to smooth out the transitions…and in retrospect, I think I should have taken just a touch more time, but I’m still relatively happy with the result.

Oh, which reminds me that I need to update the top portion. Winners were announced last week and I’ve been remiss on putting up the new information.

Tim! I finally read this. It’s a really enjoyable concept, executed well and your “Tim-ness” was clearly infused into the character. Good work, lots of fun and I miss you guys!!!!

p.s. If you were looking for input, I thought the transition from the departure of “benevolent Will Wheaton” and the arrival of “Evil Will” was a little too abrupt. I would have liked maybe one more sentence describing, say, any clear visual contrasts between Evil Will and Not Evil Will. *shrug*

It is weird. Of course, whenever Melanie and I go to a hotel, we flip on the TV and sometimes watch just utter garbage until 1 or 2 A.M. There is a certain allure to it obviously, but I’ve just found that after you spend time away from the tube, you wonder where that time went.

Then again, I could watch Cash Cab for hours and not be bored. Don’t know what it is about that show.

Strainge that unplugging from television culture might require something between an explanation and an apology.

Please continue.

Congratulations not just for having three years together, but also for realizing the importance of showing one another how much you love each other every single day.

Well done and please continue.

Oh, that is romantic. And you’re absolutely right – the “grand romantic gestures” are not what a good relationship are built on. It is actually the “little daily gestures” that hold things together for the long haul. Remember the “in good times and in bad times” (or whatever terminology was in your vows) – I can attest that often it feels like the bad outweighs the good by a lot but then the two of you have a big laugh over some insignificant (at least, to others) thing, that’s the “glue”. I could go on and on – but I won’t! Just so glad you two found each other!! Your future together is definitely “rosy”. Love ya’.
