Re: Please keep a good thought for the Saint...

Woooooooot! Wallaby, you're a prince among marsupials.
Thanks so much dude, you rock. I emailed you the names of the managers btw in case you want to note that on the print out that would be great.
That is just too cool. It'll be there tomorrow. Wow. thanks.
And everybody- I did get to see a couple of Perseids last night! It was incredible. Two were just white flashes but one was a bright blue streak, straight across the sky.
I can't tell you how it felt to see it- I've been waiting a whole year hoping I might be able to. The big ugly glasses can no longer be called such. even if they do make me look like Wall-E... (or Bubbles from the Powerpuff Girls) they're beautiful to me.
no update on Grandma today, likely tomorrow.
thanks again for all your support and for sharing in the happy things that can be shared too.
xoxo

PS oh yeah, one funny thing I forgot to mention. When I got home, before I got my pictures developed (and I will put some in my profile soon even though they came out dark- give a camera to the visually impaired this is what you get) I looked online for pictures of the room to show the Saint. when I found them, I said, "Huh, I didn't see a wet bar..." then I realized, it was behind the sliding closet doors I'd rested my forearm crutch up against so it wouldn't fall over during the night *Rofl* I don't drink- so it never occurred to me that behind those doors would be anything but a coat closet- which honestly I couldn't fathom because I think the walk in closet in this room was bigger than the rooms at the All Stars. *laugh*.
Only I could mistake a hidden wet bar for a coat closet. This is even funnier when you consider that I was puzzled that I couldn't find a drinking glass in the room to pour my can of soda into. (sadly I had no appetite to eat anything from the concierge lounge! But the soda was handy and helpful- it was so hot) Now I realize there was likely a full cupboard of them with the bar...I'm such a dork.
