Gosh, I have that same furrow! Sons.......!!

Ditto...and mine isn't even driving yet.

Ummmm......if one was going to pick one up from the A.P. wouldn't said picker upper one need to know some details....such as, what airport? what time? what kind of beer should I have cold for said someone?

KDW, did you know you and Biff will are staying right beside each other? Well maybe one day from you.

One day from me? So where is he staying? Just kidding, I am sure that must be a typo.

Yes, I knew he was staying beside me. Oh my....I have a feeling SoWal will never be the same.

One down, I meant to say. But one day wouldn't be bad either would it.

You're probably paying his cell phone bill, too. Threaten not to pay that any more ... after you talk to him!

I know you're worried. Let's hope he calls today!

That will get his attention. He will call and say, "Oh Mom, what are you worried about." :roll:

Dogs.

I'm not a dog person. They're needy, for one thing. I don't like things that need me. For another, I work close to the ground, and they don't understand that I don't consider it a compliment when they poop/pee in my workspace. (Rant warning: Dog owners, I consider it an outright offense if I am working in plain view and you allow your dog to do his business in my workspace. It makes me want to come in your house and do the same on your kitchen counter. Don't even get me started on the evil I think up when you don't have your poop machine leashed. End of rant.)

I don't like to be licked or jumped upon or panted on (especially when it's 90-something degrees outside.) I don't much like to cuddle something that smells like a wet dog. This goes for all creatures, but the primary offenders in my life are dogs.

Why, then, do dogs love me so much? Why do they follow me around even after I yell at them, stomp my feet, wave yard clippings at them, and (I'm embarrassed to say) occaisionally growl at them? I am a cat person, and understand why cats would do the same thing--their purpose in life is to be completely contrary and make life as inconvenient as possible for humans. (If they can be fed or adored in the process, it's a bonus.)

Not so with dogs. They just want love and friendship, and I offer neither to them. (Maybe sometimes, if they are clean and well-behaved and quiet. Same as small children.) Why am I a dog magnet?

Dogs can smell a trustworthy soul.

You would get along VERY well with my parents!
I'm sure he is not intentionally making you worry (amazing how kids can drive you nuts with so little effort), it is just very easy to get caught up in doing and seeing stuff while traveling and not check in.

Yeah, but I can smell a wet dog with bad breath.

I LOVE MY DOG!!!!!!!

Your dog is very cute, and he looks really clean...

I want to kiss him in the mouth! He is so precious!!!!!!

...but there are a lot of cute, clean creatures that I don't kiss on the mouth.

I appreciate the leverage to rant here. I'm over it now. Meanwhile, my geriatric, overly religious cat is yelling at me about something...:roll:

hi, I am steven and I want to play with the smilies. :leaving: :sick: bye now

You know the old saying "Nothing is certain in life but death and taxes." Well, today we got our new property taxes and they've doubled (having tripled only 4 years ago). I think I'm gonna die!!

Audie, did you hear me screaming all the way to Richmond?? I think Tivoli heard me all the way over to Evansville...:roll:

These are all for you, Mermy!!

...the power of sowal lives on!!!! Thanks one and all!!! Mr. K got an email from the wayward son today and then I just received one...

Hi,

I got a new phone number but I only have about 5 minutes worth of time on it, so I will have to wait until tomorrow so I can get some more minutes on it. Everything is going fine, we went to Belfast and the hurling match at Croke Park over the weekend.

I will call you tomorrow

Steven

...I like the other one better...

Hi, I have a new phone number now, I will write or call you with it later to
inform you about it. Belfast was pretty cool, we went to Stormont Parliament
and then we went around and saw all the murals. On Sunday we went to a hurling
and Gaelic football match at the 82,000 seat Croke Park. The bomb that went off
in Glasgow airport is not the airport that I would fly into, I would be flying
into Prestwick I think its called.

Talk to you later,

Steven

...except that last statement doesn't exactly help me.

Yes! But now I just got off the phone with my Daddy. He was supposed to come for the fourth, but is awaiting news on possible surgery. Be strong my heart.
