Well...if I know when, say, a certain someone is going to be in Des Moines, I could always request a day off work to make the trip. It's a part-time job, after all... *halos*

Considering that I got an AIM today remarking that someone hated me for the cliffhanger on the last chapter I posted of The New World, I think I'd better just get the damn thing done...and I also want to update Song of the Wind and What You Wish For. Because I'm a sadist like that :D
