Leiter is far and away my favorite and I think he and Kenny are really developing a very fun, warm chemistry. Is Kay all right, though? Much as I appreciate his absence, I'd hate to think there was anything wrong with the old lug, he's been MIA for awhile now, it seems. [27] Agreed.

Good that you still have your teaching gigs for the down time then. Tomorrow night I'm hoping to grab a quick drink at the Nina Simone bar, they were closed last time I tried to go.
