The family party went well, and all was good until we came off one highway onto another on the way home, and the brake pedal went all the way to the floor and the brake dummy light came on. Chris got it to a safe exit and safely stopped, and took a look, discovering no brake fluid left and a leak in the brake lines. So his buddy Alan came and picked us and the truck up (he has access to a trailer). So we're all (all being us and Chris's Blazer) in one piece, no one got hurt, but man that is scary.
I guess I skipped your post last night (I blame it on the kitty worries), but I'm so glad you're both OK! That must have been really scary.

Ooh ooh, I thought of two Kitty names!! The first one is Onigiri (the Japanese dish), shortened to Oni for everyday use. And the other is Kouki, Japanese for chance (although someone who actually knows Japanese should confirm this for me. Stitchawl, where are you?). I thought that was appropriate, because it was chance that brought us together.

Still looking for other names though (I'm letting go of the whole traffic safety-related-name thing), I haven't decided anything yet
