75? 81? who cares! what a treat to have warm sun in april.
I am off to Houston this weekend for a college roommate’s baby shower. I haven’t seen her since 1999, and I am, in a word, stoked. There’ll be 4 of us Baylorites/Alpha Chis/Village dwellers (our apt. complex in college) and I think it’s going to be fabulous. I am staying with my brother and flying in with hours to spare on my neice’s first birthday AND I will be eating Tex-Mex in the prefix’s home state. Sounds good to me!
Speaking of news, Dr. Paris has a new job. Sniff.
I went to a baby shower yesterday for a HS friend and each of her boobs is literally the size of my head. Each. Someone asked her if she was breastfeeding and it took all I had to not fall out my chair laughing.

Who is the best character on tv?
(Six months ago I would have said John Locke on “Lost” is the best character on tv right now…but I have so changed my mind. I’m beginning to think that he is an Other, or has something to do with Dharma; he’s like a different man than he was in earlier seasons!)
