I am sorry if I alarmed anyone. I am in the S.F. Bay Area. A friend got married. I will be back soon, and I will have a lot of great pictures and some funny stories. I didn’t want to announce that I would be out of town… (Ha!, take that blog-following-burglars)… (And just so you know, some of us are home now… armed with guns and crossbows and big pots of boiling oil and a mean dog that still smells a little like a skunk, and there are rattlesnakes by our front door… if you don’t believe me, go back and read some more of my earlier posts)… (see how I cleverly tied in our home security system with a cheap attempt to get the blog-following-burglars to read more of my stuff?)…
I am typing this on my mom’s computer, so I am keeping it simple. I really am sorry if people thought something had happened to me. It touches me deeply that you care so much. All my life I have been in the habit of disappearing unexpectedly. If you do not hear from me for a while now and then, just assume I am having an adventure… or that I am laying in wait to ambush blog-following-burglars…
If something bad does happen to me, I will leave instructions with Jessica to do a post so that you can all write your best eulogies…
Pouring My Art Out 
I figured I imagined you and everything about your life. It’s happened before. It will happen again.
That is both moving and creepy…
Personally I thought all your reflecting on your trip abroad made you want to go again so you hopped on the first flight out….hmmm….
If I could afford it I would do it…
I bet… Meanwhile us adoring fans will wait for you 😀
So much pressure. I will do the best I can.
you work best under pressure 😛
Not since that accident on the honeymoon…
I suspected you were out there in the world screwin’ off and having a good time… .
I was doing both of those things…
I wasn’t worried (sowwy). I thought you were just trying to build suspense (or crank up a few extra hits from people trying to track you down.) I knew you didn’t run out of material. Be seeing you…
I would have done that if I thought it would work, and if I had thought of it… hmmmmm.
Dear pmao,
Phew, I thought you’d run off to be with Dick or Conan or someone equally as special to you.
Love Dotty xxx
Well, my dear, there is no one as equally special to me as Conan… and you… and I would run of with either of you, as long as it was to attack Dick… assuming we are talking about Dick Cheney…
The funnest part was replaying the thing I did with my nostrils on the security camera when I tripped over the final laser beams and set the alarm off (good thing the cop was cute). I wasn’t worried about you…I was worried about me. I need to figure out how to get the moving van loaded before you get home. Say hi to your mom.
Those laser beams were supposed to cut you right in half… I need to complain to the manufacturers..
Before you complain to the manufacturers, I guess you should know that I was wearing body armor.
That is kind of hot…
Gawd! Have you no morals?? I thought we meant something to you.
Hmph.
But people want to steal all my cool stuff… I sowwy…
