Lots of socially awkward, disheveled, blank-faced patrons; steady streams of furtive, oily guys of all ages and body types asking for change or a light. They're there at six, even four, in the morning when I walk to work.)

I was wondering about the name change. Randomly ran across it, thought this guys a *hottie* wonder what he's about . . . only to discover that it was YOU!

Duh. Color me a bit foolish.

Sounds like you have your hands full. Enjoyed meeting you at the conference last year. Alas, I will be at another event this year.

Feeling much like you are about the student loans and working 2 jobs as well, although yours are more exhausting.
