Hi P-- & FC:
Your Godiva chocolate were
delicious. I ate all of them
without sharing with
anybody. My brother stole
one chocolate & the nut got
stuck in his braces. He
deserves it! Thank you
very much for coming to
my party & thanks again for
the fancy chocolate.

That was really sweet!

Good Friday

I’m off today; my department’s some of the only people who did not have this week off from work. However, I just laid in bed at P–‘s house (she had to go to work) so my penance today was to clean up after her sister’s 2 dogs. They are generally indoor dogs, and one of them must have had a serious case of the runs. While she did manage to mostly hit the newspaper, it still doesn’t make it any easier to pick it up.

My co-worker’s retiring and taking a CFO job in Sweden; we’re having a celebratory BBQ at his house this afternoon.

Busy busy busy

I’ve been awfully busy the past few days. Have been terribly remiss with postings. Am moving, packing, shipping stuff and running around getting paperwork finished.

Flying back to the East Coast Saturday and then back and then onto Taiwan and a new adventure.

The whole Iraq thing has been really troubling me …. I just want to scream.
