Surprise Surprise, Sergeant Carter!


There is magic in long-distance friendships. They let you relate to other human beings in a way that goes beyond being physically together and is often more profound.
~Diana Cortes


Oh yes I did. I used a sappy quote. Just like those FWD'd chain emails with a Rose of Friendship! or a Teddy Bear Hug for You! or some such sentimentality. So flog me. At least I didn't go for that whole Friendship Angel angle. That would've been pushing it too far.

But yes I did use a sappy quote, and yes, I stand by it. Get past the sappiness, people, strive to see the deeper meaning ... come on ... open your hearts.

Oh, that's right, you already did.

I will be writing longer and even sappier emails this evening, after these 2 meetings I have coming up, but know that I have had a sappy song in my heart, and those cartoon bluebirds fluttering around me all day. Seriously.


Batman's surgery is scheduled for tomorrow. Keep your fingers and paws crossed.

Hope the boy does well! And better bluebirds than vultures sister!

Or a post a video to make people cry.

It'd take more than a surgery to keep a dog named Batman down. Great, now I have that theme music in my head.

(Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-BAT-MAAAAAAAN!!)

Fingers crossed anyway, just because.

Traveling Matt said...

oh batman... i'm pulling for him.

Sling said...

Just make sure Batman doesn't give away his secret identity while under anesthesia!..Those Homeland Security Veterinarians can be quite crafty you know.

Give Batman tons of extra lovins tomorrow. A hug from me too. I like to cradle heads when I hug so add that part to the hug.

Lorraine said...

I'm sorry...did I just feel a shift in the space/time continuum?

rodger said...

LOL at Sling!

Mac's paws are crossed as are mine. I'm sure Batman will be seeing those bluebirds when he comes out of anesthesia so try to keep him from chasing them.

Willym said...

Gentle hugs to Batman - he'll be sore poor baby. LOL to Sling.

And about time those bluebirds did their thing. Those little f...kers were hidding for far too long.

Again we're thinking all sorts of good thoughts for Batman over here.

Good luck with Batman. We're all pulling for you!

evilganome said...

And don't let Batman eat the little bluebirds! They're bound to disagree and you don't want any more vet bills.

I'm really disappointed in myself right now because I'm trying to think of some funny Batman-association play like Sling did but I'm coming up blank. Dammit.

Feel the love. Seriously.
