Thanks, all, for your understanding and supportive comments.<\/p>\n<p>2. Sorry about the grade-12-free-verse-poetry style towards the end of that last entry.  I copied &#038; pasted out of a word processor and there was formatting I was unaware of.  If I had been trying to go all free-verse-poetry style (and you KNOW it&#8217;s not beyond me to do that) I would have chosen more significant line breaks.<\/p>\n<p>OK, three things.  Yay, now I know what to tag this with!<\/p>\n<p>3. I saw the following vanity plate on a small, non-descript car yesterday: <b>Ron Ltd<\/b>.  There was this little guy driving, he was probably about 40 and he could barely see over the steering wheel, but he gave me one of those &#8220;Heyyyyyyy baby&#8221; smiles and the idea of a guy named RON who considers himself so important as to be LTD (or perhaps was just using it as the abbreviation for &#8220;limited&#8221; but this is not my experience with short men, even short men named Ron, of which I have known two, believe it or not) was hysteria-making to me. It made me laugh so hard I very nearly delivered petite hippo right there on the street. <\/p>\n<p>Dammit, 4 things.<\/p>\n<p>4. Thanks, mo-wo, for remembering that I referred to this babe as a hippo because it is ever so appropriate (even more so than before as &#8211; guess what?  I am still growing!) and I think the nickname is going to stick.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1. Thanks, all, for your understanding and supportive comments. 2.
