Way to go getting a job! I know it's not your dream career, but it sounds like it'll be kinda fun, and it's very nice to have money coming in. I am sorry that you won't be coming up for the gem and jewelry show, but I will be crossing my fingers BIG time that you can join us for Comic Con. Please? Let me know soon!

And I'll second Aku that you looked totally adorable, and that it was wonderful having the two of you join us. You're in for next year, right? Right?
