Well, sadly, the day finally came to say farewell to Julie. By the time the final goodbyes were said, many tears had been shed by both her and me. I won’t wax sappy just yet, but here’s a picture of the group of us at dinner tonight (we went to Maggiano’s): And, here’s another obligatory …
{yawn}
So this is what 6 a.m. looks like. I had forgotten. I went over last night for moral support, and I can report that Julie’s almost all packed. I’ve just gotta take a quickie shower and walk Rags before heading over to start the big move out. {sniff} … Nah, no crying today. We’ll save …

Laughin’ at the Improv
Only at the Improv can you hear (in rapid succession) stand-up comedy from a Houston police officer, a “Christian comedy” single mom of four teenagers, and a linebacker-looking overweight bald guy who, five minutes before he ends his act, confesses that he’s gay. We had a fabulous time tonight. If you ever have a chance …
Straight talk from George W.
Tommy sent me this link, to a four-minute “ad” filmed with Will Ferrell playing George W. It’s hilarious! Here’s the link
Eric’s twitterpated.
I had forgotten the word “twitterpated.” You know how you have certain expressions and words you use with your close friends, and when you don’t see them so much anymore, you forget those expressions and words? Well, that happened to me. I said, “Eric, you’re smitten!” But his synopsis was, “I’m so twitterpated!” Yes, my …
In case you were wondering …
I know many people are worried that I’m upset/angry/stressed/tired/etc. (and I thank each one of you for your concern!) … but I promise, I’m just in semi-freak-out mode because of Julie’s imminent departure from Texas. I’m not angry at anyone, about to jump off a cliff, or trying to send subtle messages of “go away” …
The ads up there ^^^
Paul and Gary both noticed today that Blogger.com ads — aside: blogger.com was bought by Google — are frequently similar to the content of the blog on which the ad appears. Interesting observation. I guess I’ve been suffering from “banner blindness,” as I’d just plain never noticed. Gary’s blog, which mentions a sprinkler at Stonehenge, …
One more Julie & Liz photo for the weekend!
Tonight was a YAP Improv night with Paula Poundstone. Before I share the inevitable Julie & Liz photo, let me just say that the $20 you spend on a ticket to see Paula here at the Addison Improv is worth every penny. She is a tireless performer and has a real way with a live …
More pictures!
Yes, friends, I have gone wild with the camera! Here are some awesome pictures from a night out in Fort Worth with Gary, Julie, Paul and Debbie. As her “social director,” I’ve been trying to keep Julie busy so we don’t dwell on her imminent … well. You know. Anyway, I’m very happy with these …
