Sox, stay w/ my parents in Richmond. Mom will get a kick out of Iris, and she'll feed you well. Also, Iris has cousins there -- has she ever met them? Molly might be able to lead her astray.

have you met my daughter? Molly Iris might be able to lead her Molly astray.

I'd like to - they were the ones who brought up the drive-time issue.

eta: and no. I haven't spoken with them directly yet.

Sox, I was pretty sure the drive would be longer than 7 hours from Philly except that google maps is saying 7 hours but that's if you go down through DE across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge tunnel. So that would mean not driving through DC (YAY!!!) or Richmond. Maybe staying in Salisbury would work? That would be about 3 hours along.

I assume you'd be going on Friday evening rather than Saturday, right (otherwise you'd drive straight through)? Friday traffic would make a big difference in time.

Molly will be on her home turf. IJS Although I hear the teenager disease has caught up to T, and he's a grump, lately.

As to inconveniencing my mother - she has a cook and a cleaning lady . . . you might interrupt one of my father's naps?

hah.

can you send me their phone number? If I have to call my mom back, we're going to get in another argument about whether or not Sarah Palin can grow into her role once she leaves Alaska.

Can I have some health-ma for my friend C? She's in the hospital with pain and dehydration. They think her colitis has spread.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

sj, colitis is another term for irritable bowel syndrome, which is what I'm pretty sure was the source of all my lower-abdominal severe pain/problems from earlier in the summer.

Which is to say, wow, do I *ever* feel her pain. No fun at all. (Actually, it's kind of agonizing, and mine was never bad enough for hospitalization, so I can imagine how bad hers is.)
