It's so whack when people use IM conversations as blog entries. Unless they are merely emotionally wracked and unable to construct a narrative otherwise.

It won't be that bad. Just remember what John Stewart said last night when loking at the NE Atlantic seaboard, "I guess I know where I'll be the next 4 years!" Stay inside the blue state. Personally I've always benn wary of states that begi with vowels. Sorry Ohio, but unlike Chrissy ines I will not "go back to Ohio."

Also, Cara, please know there is always a blue shirt and green apron waiting for you if you need it. Although it's getting to that time of the year; Do you have your Christmas party dress picked out.
