is the soother sleeping IN on his vaca, or is he in line at an amusement park? i am deeply longing for my vaca which is next week.
I’m out on the road myself later on this week. Of course, I think now I’d rather just stay home and relax and read a book or something...
A+++ i continue in my electoral depression. i had my paralegal in here this AM saying she is sick of hearing about Bain and his tax returns, get the heck over it and do something to defeat obama. she is prone to wild hairs and this AM’s wild hair is to be sure that the Fed gov’t is outsourcing jobs to contractors who are bringing in people on work visas. she wants to write oreilly about it.
We are going to Amelia Island and i am excited to do nothing but read by the pool/beach my own self.
