as i'm sitting here, reading blogs and checking email, i come to the realization that i'm hungry. famished, in fact. i then come to the next realization, which is "now that bob's not in btown anymore, WHO WILL FEED ME??" which in turn brings about the realization that since bob can't feed me anymore, i'll just have to recruit kate to feed me. *sigh of relief* all is well with the world again. in fact, she has already begun to gradually ease into the responsibility of feeding me...case in point: the candy bar she left me on my desk at some point for me to happily arrive home to consume. now that's friendship :P kate, you're the best!
