  hey guys, jen- how's parenthood?? how's little emily grace doing? i bet she's keeping you guys busy. :) cara- sounds like girl's night out isn't as fun as it's supposed to be. i hate it when one person dominates a conversation. tell them you'll have babies when you feel like having babies!
;) that must get annoying for people to ask you that. is your job any better? i hope you find one you like soon. em- i'm sure everything will work out just fine with all of your planning. you're a good planner/organizer and it sounds like it's going well. where are you going on your honeymoon again?
i know you told me before. karissa- i don't mind at all about you telling mr casey hayes about me. what's his email?? i was thinking of him the other day. ny seems like the perfect place for that man. i still think he was one of the best teachers i ever had.
chris- what made you guys decide to go with a condo? i saw the picture of the building, it looks like a cool little block. i think we have decided that if we don't get this one house (we'll know by the end of the month whether or not we can go check the inside out) on Louisiana (5 blocks from st charles), then we are going to renovate a house in central city (which is right in between the cbd and uptown-perfect location). there are a lot of renovations going on in that area so it's bringing it back from ghetto to, well, a restored neighborhood. :) the buildings are over 100 years old (some over 200) and they are bad ass. iron work, spiral staircases, lots of room.
either way i'd be happy. i better get back to work. oh yeah, rissa- maybe you can give gus a treat after taking a bath and then he might be more willing to sit there for you. just a thought, i'm sure you've already done that.
