Yay! Practically, what will that mean though? That you have to spoil the child rotten as by unwritten law?

In my personal experience, it encompasses a bit of babysitting, picking the child up from the daycare centre and mandatory presence at birthday parties. Of course, that's stuff that would have befallen me without my godfather title anyway

In Eärniel's case it will surely involve a lot of story-telling when the child is a bit older

Yes and also what Jonathan said. Although the picking the child up from daycare will be less likely as my sister lives about an hour away and I have no car. But it will also include new year letters and presents!

WOOHOO!! I managed to avoid the rehearsal dreams!!!

I think I figured it out last night. I can't stop thinking of the music and having it run through my head, which triggers thoughts of rehearsal.... so all I have to do is put on some other music as I'm falling asleep so THAT will be stuck in my head instead of the opera music.

I'm gonna test it out again tonight. Fingers crossed for more peaceful Hell Week slumbers now .

I've heard that whatever you're exposed to in the half hour before you go to sleep is likely to enter your dreams. I read that when I was trying to figure out how to combat my fear of ghosties.

Just got home after attending two Davis Cup matches here in Stockholm. The atmosphere in the arena was great!

Sweden-Argentina, 1-1.

How nice! (Or should I say 'How niece'?)

Lily, such a sweet Hobbit-lass name.

So you think you'll have time to see to those two remaining stories?
