Just to let you all know...

My guests are safely away; Ani and Mick left with GW this evening. Apparently I owe him several beers now for making him fly from Berlin and back on the same day.

I appreciate how kindly everyone treated them while they were here, and that includes the way you all gave Mick space, like I asked. It helped a lot.

I won't be around my suite or office tonight. If you need me, though, I'll have my cell phone.
