That's good! I'm glad to hear it. My housemates are about your age too, and they seem to do all right too. [Do they, Betty? Do they really?] I've heard a little about the recent invasion, but my world was invaded by aliens before I left, so I think I would have had to adapt to living in science-fiction anyway. And in the meantime...
