Oh, thank you, that was really good! I felt badly for you, when when
I noticed that you had no apologizees (good word!) lining up for your
apologies. As it turns out, I am the one who came out greatly cheered
up. Or, perhaps I feel so much better, because I am finishing the
wine in the bottle from last night's dinner. A nice California
Zinfandel. Doctor's orders, you know. )

Heavens, you do not need to thank me. I am the one who is in debt to
you. Thank you, again.
