Nap time?

May 15, 2011

I didn’t take my nap yesterday, but boy-did I make up for that today!  Besides brunch with Ashley and Derek, Dave and I pretty much napped all day!

Friends

May 12, 2011

Sometimes you make friends who you can’t see all the time, but you always mesh so well.  This goes out to my friend Bessie.  We met in college.  It is a really bizarre story actually.

My friend and I had gone night rollerblading.  And we stopped and chatted.  He had told me that he thought Bessie was upset with him.  I had never met Bessie in person before.  He asked if I would call her … [Continue reading]
