Cruise update!

• Breaking scientific news here: there appears to be no interaction between FTY720 and mixed drinks. Specifically, French martinis.
• One travel freakout to report from the beginning of the trip:
  "What car are we taking?"
  "The Mini."
  I packed up the Mini. Gary unpacked it and demanded I NOT TOUCH HIS STUFF.  Then he packed everything in the Fit and we drove off. Maddening.
• So now we are here on the cruise, and the ship is rocking as nicely as last year, compounded only slightly by the dizziness of unknown origin that started the day after I began the new medicine. I've met many of the message board people, who may feel free to comment on the size of the zit by my nose. Back me up. It has left stretch marks.
• Incidentally, Steven Page wore a suit to the alumni concert. A three piece suit. In addition, he's lost an absurd amount of weight and grown a beard. He is trying to kill me. I may collapse with exhaustion.
• Gary only fussed a little while about the naked photo this year. This year's was an extended photo. I don't know if they were using time lapse photography, but the countdown while we were naked went from last year's 3 seconds to 10 seconds this year (specifically: 10, 9, 8, 8.75, 8.2, 7, 6, 6.25, etc.). Now that's over he can concentrate on squawking over my fashion choices for the green formal night.

Ooh, that IS maddening. Gary, Gary, Gary.

Hope you two are having fun!

Catherine - oh, you can't imagine. Today he got sick and we are going to skip the zip line excursion. At least, that's the current thinking. (Actually, I'm not too frustrated, because it is really hot here. I dont remember this much heat last year. As an example, it just took me an entire minute to spell "skip." I had to SOUND it OUT. I knew "zbip" looked funny. My brain is feeling a littled cooked.)
