Hee, glad you're happy. I'm happy too. I think everyone is happy!

How about, "When it rainbows, it looks like a unicorn vomited Lisa Frank"?

I mean, I feel like that's about as good as it gets.

Quite off-topic from this post, I suppose, but nevertheless, I have:

"When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."

- C.S. Lewis

Apparently it is a riff off a line from Corinthians, so there's that, and I prefer Wilde to Lewis, but I do think I prefer the way Lewis has put it. Grin.

Belated reply to your random questions:

I have been known to internet-chat upon occasion! My gmail/gchat name is codenamepancake.

And dayum, C.S. Lewis knows what he is talking about there! Well-said, now-deceased man. Well-said. And well-quoted, presently-alive friend!
