Dingle-berry.

Yep.  I didn't know what it was.  Until I was in Chicago with my family.  It started with a 3.5 year old who is potty trained.  However, we had our skepticism.  Then, add 2 older brothers, and a cousin, and it became our "word of the weekend".  Pleasant, I tell you.  Why is it when you go home around your family, you regress to about age 12?  And, especially when you are the youngest of 4, they will never see you differently except for the little annoying sister.  I was sandwiched and bear hugged, I was teased, I was burped on, I got noogees.  I swear we are not white trash.  However, I questioned it for about 5 minutes.

Regardless, I had one of the best weekends ever.  I saw my brother, he flew in from Tel Aviv.  I met his girlfriend(have some kids please).  We surprised my parents in a big way for their 40th anniversary.  It was great.  I miss my family so much.  And, I wish I saw them more.  I was cornered by aunt's telling me I need to go on JDATE(not a chance), I was cornered by my parent's friends telling me I need to stop living like a bohemian and stay in one place, or I will never settle down.  I didn't realize me being single was such and epidemic!  Here is a pic of my brothers and sis and I.  Oldest to youngest!

And, how could I forget to put a pic of my p's making out....GROSS.  No child should ever have to see this.  But, they are in love.  That is cool.

Okay, now that I am thoroughly disgusted, I will show you some pics over the past couple of weeks.  I have been out working like crazy.  And, I have not slept.  We had a premiere for Prairie Home Companion in St. Paul.  These pics are Paris from American Idol(her lil brother lives in the twin cities and I went and met her at his school).  Kevin Kline, Meryl Streep, Virginia Madsen, Robert Altman(director), and Garrison Keeler:

And of course...once again...me sandwiched between 2 hot dream men.  I luv sandwich's.  I know this pic is probably 2 months old, but let's not forget the moment Freddie had his had around my waist.  Mmmmm.

And, finally, the KS95 staff and the Goo Goo Dolls:

SO, THIS EXPLAINS MY LACK OF BLOGGING.  I LOVE YOU ALL AND I AM SORRY I HAVE BEEN BUSY.  I NEED TO SLEEP, I NEED TO GET MY HAIRCUT, AND I FOUND A GREY HAIR!  OH NO.  BUT, LIFE IS GOOD.  AND, MEN ARE HOT. 

TALK TO Y'ALL SOON!
