Yup, strategically placed rubber duckies. *grins* Sounds like a lot of you needed something fluffy today! And yeah, I'm a sucker for men taking care of small children - esp. when they think you aren't looking. They have a very different parenting style, for the most part!

Hrm. *is not surprised* Still, though - if he's going to be away for that long? I take it he doesn't have a partner/associate that would be able to schedule surgery sooner? And poor E. It's really best to get these things taken care of when you still have OPTIONS. Mandatory life-saving/salvage surgery at a later date is not the best of routes to go. Go pass out now and feel better! *nudges*

Yeah, there'll be more about the ducks at some point. I can't leave poor Ten II in the tub for long. He'll get all wrinkly. *grins*
