Thanks for the suggestion. I'll probably leave this chapter as is, but I'll keep it in mind if I have a similar time-jumping problem in the future. I do admit, I was at a little bit of a loss as to what the best way to go about it was...it's hard when I wanted to tell the same story from multiple viewpoints, but I usually write in linear time...

I'm sure Teddy a tribute to Sam will worm its way into Teddy's style somehow...in my mind Teddy already walks around with his hair pretty shaggy most of the time, but I guess I never really describe the length of it.
