Gmail IM is also my fave -- I don't have to activate anything else, and so far, no gross photos sent over the line (I even run silent on most IMs. Still get bizarre stuff...) I'll watch for you on Gmail after 7 my time.

Have a good visit -- and scratch Lycangeek's back (I'd say rub his feet, but don't know the state of your hands.) Speaking of which -- Inky says her doc put her on to a new topical for arthritis that apparently rocks? No idea the cost, tho -- we should investigate.
