I wish your mom the best of luck and health and hope she gets to be futuristic soon. (: (And as a 27-year-old with constant knee problems it heartens me to read about all the successful knee operations.)

I've been learning to drive for.. oh gods, almost ten years now. That is to say, I CAN drive, I have just been putting of taking the test. And then having to re-learn things. I didn't even realise it had been that long. I think I should brave it and just take the stupid test (and uh... practice a lot beforehand. I'm pretty sure I've forgotten a lot). We're all rooting for you! (:

And comparing Clash of the Titans with Troy... well, I'll just have to go and see it now! I laughed SO MUCH at Troy...
