Imagine what high school would have been a very unfunny (but thankfully minor) heart attack. She's doing well, recovering and comfortable, if bored, while awaiting some more test results.A few of you have written to us to get updates -- Teresa's husband Patrick has a quick update on Making Light:
Meanwhile, is she okay? Sure; mostly bored. Lutheran Medical Center is a good hospital, but they’re still a hospital, all hurry-up-and-wait, vagueness about what to expect next, and long delays, particularly over a weekend. Since hospitals aren’t really a great place to leave valuables unattended, houseguest Elise Matthesen and I have beenworking on turning The Pirate's Dilemma , sez, "Jesse Alexander (producer of Heroes and Lost) and I have to admit that I got some of my favorite writers, Caitlin R.

They even have separate postal services! It's like something straight out of Pynchon's The Crying of Lot 49.
