Well, isn't this the perfect way to write yourself out of a snit - snit to snip, I love it! Beautiful, girly. Strasky is a grouchy joy, love his inner voice so much here, all those sarky asides that just.. dissolve by Hutch being Hutch bascially. ::sigh:: Loved the line about the cow's hoo-haa - *g* for James Herriot! And then there's the brilliance of writing like this: ..no Aunt Calista in his childhood. Just long Minnesota winters with silent suppers that lasted forever. His family believed in avoiding everything for as long as possible. Turns it all into the swirling sewer of guilt I’d been slugging through since our Academy days.

Glad you're back in the sunshine.
