I'm personally annoyed that you'd think I'd be annoyed...lol

Great news!

If others happiness doesn't bring joy to us as people, well then this entire thing must have gone horribly wrong. :)

May you both have continued blessings...

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.
