Oy. Your comment simultaneously fills me with glee and shame. Glee, because you seemed to enjoy the story and wow, you're a terrifically gifted author, so praise means a lot coming from you. And shame because I don't know that I've ever written to tell you what a terrifically gifted author I think you are, even though I've been rec'ing your stories to everyone I know. So, *sigh*, thank you for being so very, very kind. Your "skip skip skippity skip" made me laugh out loud with joy.
