Congratulations on your moment.  AFter our last stint at living together, I can appreciate the importance of this moment and how meaningful it must have been for you.

Note:  if you buy a bunch of bananas, the price is right and the only cleanup is throwing the peel away after it is eaten.

This, in no way, subtracts from the importance of the $7 chicken sandwich.

love,

mom 

I have a big favor to ask you.  I need you to look someone up for me.  I don’t know if I told you about Barry’s girlfriend he met on the internet and had a horrible accident where some bad school kids beat her up and she has been in the hospital ever since.  The girl goes by several names.  She is about 29 yrs old  from New York City.  She was working in Richmond VA Feb. 1 when the accident happened.  He has yet to see her.  Her family will not let him near her.  He was back east for 10 days when the accident happened.  Now her family has sent him a ticket to go east again but will not let him see her nor does he see any of them.  He is now thinking of giving her a kidney.  We think she is Italian and mabey mob related. I love you—-Mom

DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THOSE ALL-INCLUSIVE DISEASE BOOKS COST?
too much.
Mom

Hello baby,
I am on a complete people overload. All I need now is MY PEOPLE (you).
Looked again at the pics you sent me of the weekend with Bart and the weekend with the sharks.
How are you doing?
I love you and I miss you.
Enjoy you time with the fam.
Call your mother.
Hugs and kisses,
mom

Since some ‘older’ folks (i.e. your mother) read the web, you must bear with my ignorance on this question: is Puffy the same person as Sean Coombs?

Hi Kids. I was straightening out the cds that I have upstairs in Janie’s room. I found one that had all the track listings and was clearly not homemade but I didn’t know whose it was. So I put it in my computer and itunes automatically got the info — it’s a Pink Floyd cd — Dark Side of the Moon. I am quite sure I didn’t buy it. Of course I’ve heard of Pink Floyd, but don’t know much about them and don’t ever recall hearing them. But I am listening to them now and I kind of like it.

Questions for you — whose is it? And are you surprised that I sort of like Pink Floyd? Is this the cd that supposedly goes along with the Wizard of Oz? (I just checked and according to wikipedia it is. How on earth did I know that? One of you must have told me.)

Love,
mom

i almost forgot to ask, did you get your hair cut?  I think Rachel Ray found out about your idea to get a sassy new hair cut, because she cut her hair too? I not watching her anymore….’cause Becky hates her.

I am losing my mind. I have no john fogerty on my ipod, not even put me in coach. What the heck is going on?

I just got a “match” from Jdate (I signed up last year but NEVER have used it) Check this guy out and tell me there isn’t a parallel universe. He looks like your father ( or at least what I remember him looking like) What do you think? Here is his profile below ( that is similar too).(Except for the height!!) His pix is in the attachment.
Love you,
Mom

The applie pie looked great and tasted great, however the apples we had here are not the best baking apple.  So the pie was really juicy and ran over the top of the crust, sticking the crust to the pie plate.   So getting it out of the pie plate rendered it to being eaten in a bowl but we aren’t complaining.   Experience is the best educator.    A new apple variety that eats really good and is crisp, but has a high water content.    Pacific somethings.

Ah what the heck.   Pie is pie isn’t it?  !!!!!!  

How is your Friday going so far?  

Love you

Hi Injured One,
I hope you have been able to tend to your injuries okay. You didn’t sustain any broken bones did you?  People who would laugh at such thing are pond scum.  I would kick their ass if they did.  I still haven’t received my pay increase or job description yet.  Don’t know when that will happen. The laptop computer has pros and cons to it. She considers it a perk of the job but what Job???  I received a scathing reply to my submission of recent overtime hours.  So at least I won’t be working extra now.  Screw that.  My days at the hellhole are slightly better now that I take a lunch break though.  My “in” pile will just continue to grow into a mountain though.  Maybe it will avalanche and bury me one day.  Then I could claim workmen’s comp.  and go off work?!  I continue to plug along.  At least I sleep now.  Or maybe it is called “pass out from sheer exhaustion”!  Let me know when you are coming home for a visit.
Love, Mommo

I’m in a hotel in Shelton , CT. Just north of New York City.  Martha Stewart and David Letterman country.  We flew into Harrisburg
Thanks again for the lovely flowers.  I sent them home with Jane when I left, because they still looke d great!  Odon loved them , too,  I have a picture of him  tasting them.  Will e-mail it to you when I get home.

Perhaps Italians take their cold medicines anally because it is more easily absorbed into the bloodstream, avoiding that long and arduous trip through the digestive system.  Just a thought. 

Love,

Your mother

I love you. I will pray for you. Be sure and take some kind of i.d. so if your plane crashes and burns they will know who to call. Hope you do that on all your trips anyway. That way if I don’t get a dreadful call, I will know you are just fine and happy.

Hi dear.  Did I tell you that I have found cat spit on a leg of the kitchen table?
She was using the Chippendale  to scratch her chin, I cleaned it, and now she has moved on to the kitchen table.
Nice.
Have a good day!

I’m watching the Today show and there is a rice shortage now. Rice went up 68% since Jan. Places like Sam’s Club and Costco are limiting how many you can buy (two) and we are low on rice( was going to get some at Holyland next week) Can you go over to Holyland and get me at least one bag of basmati rice? It was $14.99 per bag. Thanks Mom

So you know about my experience with the goose and the raccoon last night.  Yes!  Well I go to let Chauncey out this morning and she goes to the side of the building to the right.  Well I go to open the doorwall to let her in and this possum comes strolling past the deck going in the direction of Chauncey,  Bobby is on the air mattress sleeping and I am screaming.  NO NO NO DON’T GET CHAUNCEY, CHAUNCEY CHAUNCEY COME HERE, OF COURSE I HAVE NO SHOES ON AND THE THING IS RIGHT THERE I MEAN STARING AT ME FOR A MINUTE.  Here comes Chauncey and they almost butt heads and the thing turns and scoots off the other way and Chauncey starts to go after it.  GIRL I THOUGHT MY HEART WAS GOING TO PUMP OUT OF MY CHEST.   Way, way too many critters for me.  

Love,

ma
