Look everybody! I got my very first bit of blog-related mail today! Plus a half-assed proposal! Thanks Dale!

Dear Erica,
Stumbled across your blog a couple days ago, and check it daily devoutly now. I'm married and too old for you this time around, but would you marry me in my next life?
Dale

On that note, I'd like to thank both of the people currently reading this (hi dad) for their patience through all of this site-moving, domain-name-changing redesign nonsense. If you visit me in Ithaca, I will gladly buy you a beer. Or an "organic carbonated wheat supplement" as they call it here in hippietown. Here's my favorite Ithaca related site today, stolen directly from Mimi Smartypants. These guys are the ones behind the Lion in Helen Newman hall. May I suggest a library theme for your next prank? Perhaps something related to the "stone throwing is prohibited" sign on the roof of Olin? Just a thought...
