"little eeky, who is very naughty"

Hahaha! I got quite a kick out of seeing that on Steve's blog a few days ago. And it was the second thrill I got that day.

I worked at the little arts coop gallery that day and on the drive home my phone rang. Luckily it rang between songs -- otherwise I never would have heard it. I flicked off the cd player, fished my phone out of my purse and answered, fully convinced my brother was on the other end (as he's pretty much the only person who calls me regularly on that phone). It wasn't. It was Steve. Turned out to be a very fun call -- talked to everyone in the family except Scarlet.

Two things struck me as I chatted. First, how very nice and down to earth all of them are. And second, how during the whole call I had this undercurrent running through my mind -- "don't wreck, don't wreck, don't wreck." Gah! How embarrassing would it have been to have crashed while chatting away! Hey, it was dark, rainy, and hard to see, but fortunately it was interstate and late enough that traffic wasn't heavy. So I made it home safe and sound, and with a big smile on my face.
