Sweeheart-

Remember the rule. Don’t bring home anything you can’t wash off. That should cover it.

Love,
Mom

Mother's Day plans

Tue, 06 May 2008 22:49:36 -0400

Hosay!! So, just spoke to Dad and here’s what we thought of — If you like it, I’d love to have steamed lobster!! They steam them at Fairway and we can pick them up after the gym. Before the gym, you can buy and make salad, and whatever we eat — dad suggested potatoes and corn.

So if we do that, you can come late afternoon, help prepare dinner, and go to the gym with me at 5 for 2 hours!! You’d love the pool so bring a bathing suit. You don’t have to join the exercise class if you don’t want and just swim or go in the warm training pool. Then we’ll pick up the hot lobsters and pig out!! If you don’t like lobster, I can get you shrimp or something else. Whaddya think!!

Oh, he's a catch!!!

Tue, 06 May 2008 11:54:51 -0400

i get to go home in a minute or three. Hooooooray! It’s kind of cold today but this weekend is suppose to be warm, warm, warm! How was class? And what are you doing now? Huh? Huh? Huh? What cha doin’ ????????? I hope spending time with that handsome boy from your floor that we met!! Oh, he’s a catch!!!

I think love is in the air!
x’s and o’s- Mom

BLINGY

Tue, 06 May 2008 11:50:56 -0400

me: hi ma
mom: hi honey
me: whats shakin?
mom: I am so excited. I ordered a ring with man-made diamonds, since who knows when I will get a ring made with the loose diamonds I bought. It is made in a gold vermeil setting which feels like plastic but it is appropriately BLINGY and I LOVE IT. I look like such a rich lady with my big rocks!!!!!!!!!! I think it is just the bling that I want, not so much how the diamond is made
me: hahaha, well I am glad you will be appropriately blinged-out

beautiful gold plush curtains

Tue, 06 May 2008 08:09:42 -0400

I have just boxed up some beautiful gold plush curtains for your new residence from Grandma’s living room! There is a large pair for a large window, and a set of smaller ones for a smaller window! You won’t have to buy any now.

And, I forgot. There is a valence for both sets, and tie backs also. They all have gold fringe too. Perfect for a modern residence.

wealthy!

Tue, 06 May 2008 08:07:26 -0400

your check for $13 arrived.
When I deposit it, you will be wealthy!

I love you,
moi,
your mom

RICE

Mon, 05 May 2008 14:55:07 -0400

Yesterday on the bus I saw this old Asian guy with 2(((25 lb.) bags of rice. You know how many asians shop at costco, too. So many of them come from countries where there have been famines, they are probably really panicking right now……..
You know that the price of wheat and corn has doubled, and rice more than that…a 75% increase. They say its because so much is being used in biofuels. What I find scariest here is that our midwestern underground aquifers (once thought infinite) are already dry and have been…this fact from Diet for a New America (that film is about 20 years old, no?)…from beef production, you remember, growing all that grain to feed beef cattle……

mother's day

Mon, 05 May 2008 08:38:44 -0400

Hi Everyone

If you thinking of getting me anything for mother’s day, here’s some idea on what to get. I’d love these new album “The swing session” by David Campbell, he’s an Australian, or “Believe” by Geoff Sewell, a Kiwi and he sings with Amici Forever (pop opera group). I think this is his first solo album but don’t quote me on that..

Love to all
Mum

SMAHHHHHHHHT!!!!

Mon, 05 May 2008 08:36:28 -0400

mom: How can I re-word the "then and only then"???????? I'm stuck.
me: You could just say "only then" , I think that would be fine.
mom: You're so SMAHHHHHHT!!!!!

wedding

Sun, 04 May 2008 00:44:20 -0400

Hi Son,

We already sent the response card to your uncle but try calling him or Amy and try asking if you could bring a friend to the wedding. You are about the same age and you played with her while you were kids.

For your second question, we usually just let them figure it out. Just wear a appropriate outfit and I like your hair shorter like last time. Being gay i genetic, maybe Dad’s side, and we will always love you and we are very proud of you. We are just glad that God gave us two wonderful children.

Love,
Dad and Mom

a pleasure talking to you

Sat, 03 May 2008 10:30:18 -0400

Thank you for the pictures that I cannot open or even look at. It was a pleasure talking to you last night on the phone when you were more interested in a baseball game than speaking to me.

Let me ask one question, I know what it consists of to put a picture on the email and send it. Especially since I sent you a complete CD of Marta’s wedding. Is it that you don’t think that much of me to send a picture of Anna that I could print??

Anyway thanks.
Your mother

Be well my little blueberries.

Sat, 03 May 2008 10:27:36 -0400

Dearest Sweetnesses,

So. Here’s the thing: WHY i am getting two copies of all your emails? I’m not understanding this. Why do I have to be told everything two-two times?

I must confess, I am intrigued. You, Miss, wish to schedule a pha-mely phone call?? AWWwwww, so cute! Can we schedule this on an ad hoc basis, not ad inifinitum? Phor eczhample, looks like 1 pm this Sunday works for all concerned. Hurray! Oh, Amit, why your mocking of your sister? I think you will be very much appreciating pha-mely time phone call.

So in conclusion, Amit I’ve sent you granola (it already has bran cereal in it.) and we’ll talk on Sunday.
Be well my little blueberries. I love you!

MOM

Sat, 03 May 2008 10:23:43 -0400

Fri, 02 May 2008 14:16:08 -0400

Tallyhoe!!!!!

Fri, 02 May 2008 14:06:17 -0400

Sorry for the phone call today, things are alright. Anyway miss you lots. Babyolaaa misses you (he tried to bit me when I wanted to attach a new button to his sleeve so I didn’t ) Roger and Benny misses you too. I am not using mookey woo-woo that much so don’t worry but I am keeping it clean.

I took a few bike rides(by myself) went to Michaels (myself) and cleaned the house and even got to vacuum your room. You have a nice rug when you can see it. The excitment continues!! Could be worse, I could be in London. (only kidding!!!!I would love to be there especially with you .) Things will be fine once you are in school but BE CAREFUL!!! EAT , STUDY and think about your Mommy.

Make sure you see all the sights too, draw me a map of all the places you have been to. I loveee maps. So take care and hope to hear from you soon. Tallyhoe!!!!!

Love you, byeeeeee,
Mommy

He went to the air force academy, graduated in 2004 then came to trinity for his masters , he finished in feb, and is waiting to hear if he gets in to he doctorate program. He is thin about 6’4” with thick curly hair to his soulders. And a great smile. You and catherine will have to put that museum on your itinerary :)
