I will have to come back to this in a couple
days. I have to spend the next couple days
making cotton candy for the school's ice cream
social and then there's a camping trip to get the
kid packed for and StarWarsClone plus a bookfair
to run on Friday... maybe Saturday... again for mail...
I just know I am gonna smell like cotton candy for
days and days...
