Wow! Tonga's underwater volcano blows . (video from nyt.com -sorry: you have to wait through the commercial-) I had a nice long gossip last night curled up in my closet with Best Girl Mix. Her two year old son is a personality in full force. Two is such a fun age. Suddenly the itch for new tools is upon me. This always leads to chasing Snap On Tool trucks, where the drivers are always rather confused if I need a new ratchet attachment or a bag of weed. What I should focus on is getting a new dress for Jess's wedding in June (three months!). I am hopeless at dress shopping. Volunteers? Something in the vein of an afternoon cocktail dress. Those morning cocktail dresses are trouble, particularly if a turban is involved. Nothing strapless, please. This is the tool we have been looking for since pdfs were invented.
