they came, they saw, they conquered. i am glad that you had so much fun with your parents, i can only imagine how great it must have been! i am relieved to know that your dad is indeed, not, turned on by colonial times. because, ew.
i want to have a whirlwind weekend in washington with you.
Meg...for the love of all that is holy you need to blog more. I feel so happy when you blog. You wit, your wisdom, your wise-acre comments. Yes I did just use the word wise-acre. I would have said wiseass but Dave thinks my mouth is too pretty to let swear words come out of it. Honestly though I am just commenting to tell you I love love love you and all of that stuff.
I think Dave is on to something. Maybe you could have him talk to Meg too.
Mark this is for you... He really should, he really should. Her mouth is way prettier than mine.
I don't see how you went to iwo jima from VA in a day. I'm at my wits end here.
