With a laptop backpack. Down Greek row. Because nothin' says "hot mama" like a sweaty, late, guilty-feeling, Easy Spirit-runnin' gal hoofing it by the cute co-eds on a college campus. Oh yeah, the frat boys are checking me out. Since I also have a thing for fish tacos (and have visited all 3 Dos Caminos to eat them), I have to say that I thought Miracle Grill had ceased to exist? Are you telling me that i can still get a blood orange margarita?? Granted, I now know I'll have to share it with a roach, but hey, it's New York. Maybe he'll cover the tip.

If I were a mouse all comfy and warm, I would prefer I stay in and you go out in the storm. If I were an ant and filled with good cheer, I would wonder why there's no "Ant Day" each yearl But alas we know two-leggeds have power, so we're changing our digs to the Eiffel Tower. From there we'll continue to promote peace and green, treating each other kindly and working as a team. If I were a roach I would want to know, why you stay inside and I have to go.

Yikes, but they were good! And I did not send out ANY holiday cards this year, so your friends are ahead of me. I'm thinking of sending out "Cinco de Mayo" cards -- is that inappropriate for young children? And finally, I have to pick up my kids from school at 5:30, and I am always flying down the sidewalk to my parking garage and driving like a maniac through town to be there on time. I am the 5:29 Mom nearly every day. When we had lunch together with your girls when I was in NY in Sept. we ate near your house at a place with yummy fish tacos — was that the same place??

Did you see me? I was the frantic mom running though the airport kid in tow with clothes dirty enough to stand on their own and I swear she has a cute face under all those boogers and grime! :) I waved at you while flying into NYC yesterday.

Perhaps in fact they are just early. Very early. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait – who says they're late? Perhaps in fact they are just early. Very early.
