Much better, thanks!

Actually got a note from the president of my company congratulating me on my 2 letters of praise from 2 of my nicest clients. :-)

Not to mention, I only had 5 payrolls to run and they were all trouble-free! Thank God for that!

I don't remember Clan of the Cave Bear much, but I put the sequel down because - yuck...

Thank you for self-sensoring. Some of us are good girls. (You're neither.)

Really? I honestly thought there was way too much graphic sex.

~pause while everyone makes a note~

Ever read the Forsyte Saga? Talk about a confusing family tree...

Good for you Ruthy! 2 compliments when most people don't even go to the trouble to compliment far outweigh one problem! :-)

Nice to have a quiet day huh?

Hi there, Ramius!

I read all of Jean Auel's books, except Shelters of Stone (is that the name?), which is the latest. The sex parts weren't that graphic, IIRC. Just descriptive. *grin*

I've read quite a few romance novels in my day that were far more hot-flash-inducing!

Read all of the clan of the cave bear books. Good series.

Well, I plan to read it partly because the story I'm working on now involves some prehistoric stuff and I want to see if Auel did anything I should be aware of. Maybe I'll just close my eyes for certain pages :)

Haven't read Williams yet, either. My reading list keeps growing--which is a good thing :)

't's what I was thinkin'. LOL

I got Shelters of STone last fall. I was a little disappointed with it though. Still, had to keep up with the series. :-)

One novel I read that you might find interesting is "Sarum"

That sounds like what you get if you combine a Dark Lord with a former Smeagol :)

I'm gonna have to take off here in a little bit. I have some consultant reports to read. It's sorta like reading porn, only without the sex. Leaving... yeah. That's about how much fun it is.

Sorry bout that! I got kicked off of this lousy dial-up again. Grrr...

I was afraid of being disappointed with Shelters of Stone, since I did enjoy the series so much. Still, I guess I'd better hit the used book store and give it a try!

Talk to you tomorrow, Ramius. I'll be heading to bed here myself in a few minutes.
