Letter From Mine Offspring, Traveling Hither and Yon

Carrie wrote me an email last night. She’s in Mississippi with the rest of the clan. They went early and I have stayed home alone for a couple days.

My Esteemed Father,

An it please you, would it perchance be possible to take yon ethernet cable and put it into thy travel bag forthwith? This is a godforsaken land wherein the sanctity of WiFi is absent. Fie on thee if thou wouldst deny thy daughter the simple pleasure of a blue cable!

Most earnest thanks,
Your loving daughter,
Anhilda.

Post Script: We are continually in hopes that thou hast not sullied thyself by entering the bawdy houses of women of ill repute.

Will I be taking our little WiFi setup with me in my suitcase?

Um, yeah.

And not just because I wouldn’t have connectivity when I get there on Sunday, of course. I’m not a selfish man, I’m doing it for the kids!

  3. Jen Not really witty, that’s how she talks ALL the time. It’s annoying as hell.

    (kidding.)

    She’s a delight.

  6. Ha!  That is awesome.  I especially like that she does it all the time.  I bet it makes everyone batty.  Brilliant.

Holy Crap! Look at all this STUFF down here. It's awesome!

 

Really, I'm glad you made it down here. Almost no one ever comes down here. I'm like in a freaking dungeon down here. I get lonely. But not you. YOU made it all the way to the end of the page. For this I think I've a little crush on you. I don't know, is "love" to strong a word to use in this situation? Well, if it's not "love," then it's very strong "like." I'm totally in like with you for coming down here. You are awesome. Please love me back! I know, I know, I shouldn't be all needy, it's not attractive at all, but you don't know how it is to be stuck down here. Who scrolls all the way to the end of a page anymore these days? Anyway, thanks for shedding some light down here in the depths. I appreciate it. Shoot me an email and I'll send you a dollar, OK?
