 NB>> That sounds like a good possibility...  :)  Or if it ends up being

 NB>> you take your class... or do his homework there... ;)
 DAG> I'm working with figuring out what the least painful way to get my

I'm sure that you'll work out some good options...  :)

 NB>> Perhaps a "compromise" would be to meet her once in
person, to scope out
 NB>> the body language, and then just keep that in mind for when you deal
 NB>> with her on the phone... ;) (yes, a little tongue-in-cheek, perhaps [g])
 DAG> Well judging by the fact that she has room in her 2-bedroom
 DAG> apartment for a fully stocked bar, I'm gonna call my initial
 DAG> predictions pretty close to the mark.  They ended up getting together
 DAG> the other weekend.  She seems like a pretty good person, but definitely
 DAG> still going through her partying phase.  The kids had a great time,
 DAG> though.  I'm gonna have to get the place cleaned up here so that they

I think there's a crossed wire there... I was talking about the person
from work you were dealing with, not the friend's mother... ;)  However,
it's a good thing that the kids did get together and had a great time...
And yes, facilitating their being able to get together at your place is
also a good idea... :)  Hopefully the mom will indeed grow past this
phase, and turn out ok...

 DAG>> 'Course there one of them was my direct boss/former burglar.
 NB>> There's a story there....  ;)
 DAG> Oh you have no idea how tangled that particular web is.  I really
 DAG> need to finish that book...  *laugh*

Crazy life... ;)

 NB>> Yup...  As long as we keep them flowing, pretty much, shouldn't get
 NB>> TOO far behind, either one of us..  ;)

 DAG> Well, I'm struggling a bit, as you can probably tell at this point,
 DAG> but I'm trying to chip at things every day at least.  Hopefully my
 DAG> blockage clears soon and I'm able to get through a more decent amount
 DAG> at a better clip. 

Chipping away works... ;)  Keeping a flow in the echo is part of the
scheme, after all... ;)

... Brainstorm?  No, but I had a braindrizzle once
