You're very brave to trust your Pyrenacathum to Norton. Does he have any training in this field? We once left out ant farm with the little girl next door and when we came home every one of the ants was dead. She had placed them in the sun and they fried, and then she poured water in to try to reconstitute them and drowned the few remaining live ones. She meant well. We never left our cat with her. Your weekend sounds wonderful! Your meal sounds incredible. Why doesn't Dash ever invite us anywhere? Why don't you and MJ? You do all these neat things. I had a Howdy Doody puppet. But it really wasn't a good gift for a six year old. His strings got all tangled up and I cried and banged his head against the wall so that some of his red cheeks and painted hair flaked off and I had to stand in the corner which had been newly papered and I remember this SO clearly because there was no way a child could resist. THe paper wrapped around the corner. You could push your finger in and tear it. Which I did-from the bottom up as far as I could reach. It made this neat sound when your finger popped through. I moved to another corner and did it again. My mother came in and said "Why are you standing in a different corner?" Then she saw what I had done. I don't remember after her initial hysteria what she did to me. I've probably suppressed it because to recall it would be so traumatic and damaging to my psyche. I made sure as an adult that when we paper we end at the corners of a wall, which aren't you supposed to do anyway? My mother was probably being thrifty or something. So it was her fault. Thinking of you in the mountains---we're on our fourth week-or is it fifth now? of 100plus weather and no rain. My thoughts of you just turned envious and ugly.

I guess I missed the whole Donna Reed thing. Then again I'm too young to know Howdy Doody from Shinola. I did once stumble across a nekkid gif of the lady who plays Dr. Crusher on the old Star Trek - the Next Genitalia. Bad juju. Glad it was a free hookup. >box of wine< Let me pass on a very valuable lesson. Line the box with some sorta plastic. The wine soaks thru the cardboard faster'n you might think, and then it gets pretty bad. An ugly mess. Been there. It was a friend's van, fortunately.
