Dearest Roomie Mine:
Part the first:
Can I borrow Miles for a bit? Like an hour or two? And this isn't really me asking you for permission. It's me asking you if I can ask him. Because you're his mom and that's what is supposed to happen. Like I'd ask you first before him giving him cookies or something and spoiling his dinner. Well, unless we couldn't find you. But those were oatmeal raisin cookies and that's practically a breakfast food.
Any way, I have Narnia books and I'm hoping Miles would be up for storytime. In the interests of full disclosure I gotta tell you I'm also looking for his lovely mutation.
Did you know that the sun goes through cycles? And that every eleven years or so sunspot activity is increased. And that generates more solar flares. And those generate magnetic storms.
Which is kinda like striking a tuning fork and holding it to your sinus cavity. Or it is for me.
So, roomie, can I?
Part the second:
Miles,
What do ya say? Narnia and hot cocoa in exchange for you helping me out with this headache of mine?
Let me know, you Blaires.
Yours most gratefully,
Lorna

... you know the tuning fork analogy? I know how that'd feel. GEH. *shudders*
And Miles says as long as you build a hideaway with him, you're set. I suspect some sort of food bribe would be acceptable too. ;) In fact, he ought to be knocking on your room door as you read this from the way he ran off...
