My ex and his adopted daughter were visiting Columbus Day weekend. I went with them and my kids to the top of Washington Monument. First time in nearly 20 years.
Unfortunately, Dedman . . . you're wrong. I'm coordinating cookie sales for about 600 girl scouts who are expected to sell about 50,000 boxes of cookies this month. I'll be freezing my Samoas off in February as I monitor our portion of the National Capital area's nearly $20,000,000 retail operation.

Ded. . . Our family has become notorious as the non-camping-campers in a group of about 20 families that camp together each spring at Assateague Island. Others bring marshmallows and hotdogs to roast on an open fire. We bring margaritas on dry ice and make shrimp fajitas. Roughing it means we leave the crystal and china at home -- although we do use the set of sheets that match the china pattern.
Stop by this spring. Our tent is the one with the solar walkway lights beside the doormat.
Quis, unfortunately, for me, you're right. I haven't made it to the Balto comic-con since 2006. Maybe 2010 . . .

I finally remembered that you were planning on going, but something came up. Or am I making that memory up?
Ok for my question.
Each year my family does a Yankee Swap. Last year I got some aqua globes and a plant. What did I get this year??
a) A Slap Chop b) A snuggle blanket and teddy bear c) A 3 drawer storage cart d) A foot massager e) Apple cider with mulling spices and a steeping ball f) A package of Bottle Tops and some Ghirardelli Chocolates g) The game "In a Pickle" h) A cheese board i) A bottle of white wine j) The Susan Boyle Christmas CD

That was one of the gifts, but not the one I got. That one got swapped a bit but never in my possession.

Seeing as I don't like cheese, it is a good thing that I didn't get the cheese board.

The apple cider, et.al. was given to me by my downstairs neighbor and I regifted it to the swap. And I didn't get in a pickle by getting the game "In a Pickle".
