(And how sweet of you not to spoil his wife's fun. I'll bet she was dying to get away from him for a bit.)<br /><br />The act sounds spectacular -- and the build up of suspense toward The Terror was obviously very successful!<br /><br />BTW -- my husband took me on a date night last weekend, too!

Drink this water! ;)<br /><br />Summer -- It is fun stuff. :)<br /><br />pseudosu -- Aw, conversation and snuggling is for the couch at home. ;)<br /><br />Kerry -- True. Especially geriatric vampire novels. ;)<br /><br />Abby -- Thanks! And I'd like to see me do that, too. Not likely to happen, though--too clumsy. ;)<br /><br />Adriana -- Well, I mostly thought about the tension & stuff afterward. During, I was too riveted. :) <br /><br />KarenG -- You should try it! :)<br /><br />Kelly -- Oh, but I DO thank you! If I'd known it would be so easy, I would have come to you a long time ago. <br /><br />Elizabeth -- Your faith is heartwarming. Totally misplaced, but heartwarming all the same. <br /><br />Candyland -- Aww, you must be a natural at it--you juggle so many things so well at your blog. :)<br /><br />Jeffe -- Thanks! :) <br /><br />Bess -- Thanks. I know you will. :)<br /><br />And thank you all for reading and commenting! :)Linda G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04576828490765434497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6051602384535005789.post-72065154091827907262010-10-22T16:18:13.487-04:002010-10-22T16:18:13.487-04:00What a great illustration!
