Oh, Joe and Aimee, that is just shitty. I'm sorry for the late commiseration, but I've been offline. Let me know if I can do anything. Love you guys!
Also, Matilda, give your mom and dad a little break, sweetie. They've got SO much going on right now. I think they could use a little break.
I had a lovely couple of days with mom. She just left. I'll post pictures of what we did in a bit. We put together five quilts. It was really amazing. I couldn't believe how much we got done. It was SO fun, but now I'm exhausted.
Oh, man do I want to go to dinner with y'all.

Dang. I was wondering if you were really thinking about heading out for chili. I may have to go pick up some lunch there myself.
And they are just across the street from the cupcake place. Hmm.
Mt Prospect if you wanna get technical
Hey! I've lived in Mt. Prospect. My little bro went to Prospect High.
Ok...for those who are interested, here are links to three of the quilts we put together this weekend:

I must have skipped where you are getting the great menus from. Yum.
{{Aimee and MM}} Sorry for the sucky work situation.
Also, Bitches rock!
ION, apparently Google is a good source for doctors to diagnose rare diseases. [link] We didn't need this kind of encouragement.
Back to work...
Trash out. Dishes unloaded. Dirty dishes in washer. Cass fucking exhausted.
Oh! Pretty quilts. Pretty doggy. Pretty apartment.
Poor Cass. Sounds like naptime.
Thanks, Laura!
Pretty quilts.

Someone should mention this to House so he'll stop nearly killing his patients every week before (often) finally figuring it out.
