Raq, I can't tell you enough how much your gorgeous son looks like you. He has got to be one of the smilingest babies I've ever seen.

I'm over the zoo thing, I think. I've gone through the rational explanations but I still have some hurty feelings. I guess I can't understand why R and our mutual friend K didn't think to invite us to the zoo in the first place. It's tough when I'm in a place where I feel isolated and without a lot of friends. *shrug*

Ok. American Dreamz is HIL-arious!!

I'll put it on my list to see. I saw Dennis Quaid plugging the film on the Today show and The Daily Show (which was much funnier) and have to say--DQ looks GOOOOOOD and the movie does look hilarious. I also think that Willem Dafoe looks so much like Dick Cheney that I spit orange juice when I saw the film clip on Today.

Cash, your white font nearly made me spit and I don't have anything in my mouth.

Raq, I finally figured out why Mal has such big hands and feet. He's going to be a swimmer. Those folks always have broad, broad shoulders, skinny little hips and very long hands and feet. Glad to see you've started him in the right direction so soon.

The man is one of my favorite character actors but that was just more than I could take!

Darling vw, you are strong (like an Amazon!) but part of being strong is asking for help and taking the breaks you need. The movie sounds like a fabulous way to have spent the afternoon. Especially for a running away ball. Running away balls love them the comedy films.

Back to grinning Mal pics now.

Yay for Mal pics. What a beautiful child. Not that it could have happened any other way with his beautiful mother. Just what I needed to perk me up after a long day, that isn't half over.

I didn't go to any of my reunions, if there were any. Would have been #30 a few years ago. I left town at 19 and they didn't. Whenever I visit home they are doing the exact same stuff they were 30 years ago. There was one girl a year ahead of me that I have kept in touch with. The rest of them I couldn't care less about. I had friends at the time, but I didn't go to school with them.

Yay for fun movie time!

Timelies!

I saw "Kinky Boots" - it was fun!

VW not lying: you will make it.

Oh and for your amusement:

An email slipped past my spam filter from "Captain Incense".

Cash, I'm pretty sure Raq's right about it. Your friend was not trying to snub you, she just didn't feel she could bring in another party to the outing, so she did not mention it at all. Of course, she is going to feel soooooo awkward when her hubby tells her he mentioned the zoo to you.

Cashmere, when I read your post, I was going to say what Raq said, and what Andi said. I've been made redundant, but there ya go.

Jilli, or anyone else, what is the best place(s) to buy crinolines?
