leslie - i'm thinking you shouldn't be making fun of any of our dances anymore. :) are you doing the robot?

kara - i watched the amazing race the other night - that was so cool to see the yoda statue on there. how is all the interiewing going? sounds like they have a serious process when it comes to hiring people. when will you know if you got it? how is you grandma?

so chicago was way fun. but it was weird to be in downtown on mother's day. it was way crowded and everyone was all dressed up (except me and kurt of course). we flew back that night and again i ended up having some weird person sitting next to me. am i a target for this? i always end up sitting next to the person that has brought nothing to do. if you know you are going to be on a plane for 3 1/2 hours why not bring a book or something, i don't get it. so then they want to talk to me, well, i'm prepared and don't want to have a 3 hour pointless conversation. so this girl in her twenties sits down next to me w/ a little box that has holes in the top. i ask her whats in it? big mistake. it's a bunny that apparently she helped deliver 6 1/2 wks before (note: not 6, not 7 but 6 1/2 wks - i know this because she repeated it about 10 times). i wasn't aware that rabbits needed help giving birth, don't they have more practice at it than any other animal? so that was the beginning of a very long flight. she told me (& whoever else would listen) how she brought a snake on her last flight, she just came from kentucky where she rode a horse to the store every day, she showed me her little girl purse that was black with little silver things onit that she bought at a garage sale for $2 and that she was so happy to find a purse that matched her pants (a very basic pair of jeans), she has a shitzu that she paid $3000 for (but she can only afford a $2 purse?), she talked about her panic attack disorder that she has ear drops for to help because the drops go down into her ears and relax the little hairs in her ears, and on and on. i wasn't sure if i waws going to be on some type of candid camera show or if this girl was just and attention starved pathelogical lier (obviously the 2nd one). i wonder how many poor animals she has dragged around with her for attention and conversation. crazy! so, leslie every time i get on a plane i still think about the time you drank the water that belonged to the guy sitting next to you. still so funny. the pee story is a good one, but the plane one is still better. you have the best embarrasing moments! :)

wow - that was a long post! later
