lily of the west
well kids, i'm off to ohio tomorrow morning. i really do make a point to travel to the most exotic points in the country, don't i?

oh, and did i mention that last night i got the best package i have ever received? i'm not making this up. a fabulous fabulous woman sent me her recently used wedding veil, potentially to be used as julia's-something-borrowed (yes, i get bridally weepy everytime i think about it, too), a six pack of kentucky's finest Ale-8 in GLASS BOTTLES, three things of bridal porn, including the outlandishly expensive "southern living weddings" magazine with little yellow post-it notes pointing out things that make her think of me, and (yes, AND!) the kick assingsest mix CD. it has "let's get it on" on there next to a james taylor song, for example. i was dancing around with glee last night. drinking better-than-ginger-ale and wearing a beautiful veil on my head.

oh, and did i also mention that this week, after months of agony and "discussion," our church leadership body decided (8-3) this week that it'd be peachy kean to put a cell antenna on our property.

i tried. i really did. i'm actually really proud of myself for fighting it. nobody else would have.
