Yay vw!! Woot! And lots of ~ma for Katie Bee.

From way back, OMG Nora - I have a co-worker friend that hates the word moist.

Since she's a practical joker type and has a good sense of humor, I work very hard at incorporating moist into each and every conversation I have with her.

And if I stop by her desk for something only to find that she's gone for the day, I run back to my desk to call her, knowing full well that I'll get her voicemail, just so that I can leave her a message like, "Moist. Moistmoistmoist. Moooooiiiiiiisssssssst."

In my defense, all of this started *after* she dumped a whole bunch of glitter into my file drawer. A year later and I'm still finding bits of glitter.

Had to go back to check out the pics and I cannot believe how big Em is getting. I swear, it just doesn't seem like she should be growing up so dang quickly. Great looking kids and (one set of) parents, though.

yay for vw!

and sending th ema~~ towards Katie B

Wow:

Albert Kottke is meticulous about planning his hikes in the wilderness. But last week, he and his brother Peter decided to take a detour on their trek through the Gila National Forest in New Mexico. And they heard what they thought was a bird or animal.

It was actually Carolyn Dorn, a 52-year-old camper from South Carolina who had been given up for lost by rescuers three weeks ago. The brothers, both college students from Minnesota, decided she was too weak to move, so they gave her food, firewood, water and a murder-mystery novel to keep her company, and hiked for a day and a half -- some 20 miles -- to get help.

People should be posting, and they're not.

Today was a world of fun. Cash and sprog are just as awesome as I thought and even more so.

I want to go down on record as saying that she is THE BEST prepared Mom that I have ever seen. The woman is amazing handling those two.

Seriously - today was the best part of our trip.

Funny note - Joe had no idea today was the first time Cash and I had met in person. Hee.

And Cash? You are even more gorgeous in person. And now...The Proof. [link]

It was so nice to hang with a mom that has kids the same age as Em. And speaking of Em, please to ignore the horrible haircut I gave her although, to be fair, it's her fault for jerking her head as I went to trim her bangs.

That's not her fault.

You go over there and stand in the corner with Cash's husband.

Look at her baby/toddler wrangle while exhibiting cuteness!

That's not her fault.

Is so!!

Empress, is your profile addy still good? I sent you an email a few weeks ago but it may have gotten missed in the prep for your trip. Not a biggie, but I wondered.

Connie - it is still good, and I did get it. I am so sorry for not responding to the email. That was rude of me. I meant to, but a million things happened and I just spaced it.
