Oh, man, this is what I get for posting late at night. I left out half a paragraph. No, nothing to do with you. I was whiny and bitchy last week because, like Caldwell, I was in more pain than I realized, and a couple of my betas may have gotten the brunt. *cringes*

Not to worry, this story has taken so long that even I have had to take breaks from it. perfica had to step down, you've had to... it's only natural.
