Timbits cure shingles*

Jump to Comments

Quick update:

We’re back from Erie. My god, it seems so huge now.

Heard the story about someone getting Melissa drunk and trying to get get her to eat ham (a.k.a. “slip her some meat” as I so gracefully put it). Helped ron become a complete man (*ahem*). Made Kim’s mind spin w/ how fast Michael and I would talk (plus: mmmm cheesecake pops). Got handmade crocheted fingerless gloves from Brandy (will photo & share w/ long version entry). Met Emma & did much coveting. Returned with one tree & will return for more possibly in fall.

Went to zoo. Saw zebras, penguins, red pandas, lion and more. Rode zoo train. Bought lotsa stuff at mall (high-heeled Crocs!), bookstore, Campbell Pottery, etc. Sold one house. Am no longer technically an Erieite; am now official Erieite emeritus. Still in love with Erie. *sigh*

I have lots of photos from the zoo & otherise but I haven’t unpacked the camera yet. I will however share a fun story from Max & Erma’s last night.

I was wearing my awesome new V-neck Eddie Bauer dress, complete with fantastic new bra that makes The Girls look perky and fantastic. So Holden was acting naughty, trying to get out of the booster, etc. He got on my lap and started bouncing his face off my boobs (if you’re familiar w/ kids, you’ll know about the “bouncing one’s face off stuff” thing).

So there are two youngish guys in the booth off to my left and they’re entertained by Holden’s antics. I hear the one guy say (in a low voice), “Look, he’s bouncing his face off her tits.”

The second guy says, “Can you blame him?”

Both laugh.

Second guy adds, “‘Cause that’s what I’d be doing.”

I love Erie.

* Timbits don’t really cure shingles. They just help you not care so much.
