Dear Diary
Back from Ireland
Friday, June 13th, 2008For those who wondered where on earth I could possibly be, we’ve just returned from our week long Irish road trip. And what an adventure it was!

Thursday, December 13th, 2007I wanted to write “PASSED” in big white chunky letters over the flag, but got second thoughts. You never know if a country has funny laws. Look at what happened to Bart Simpson in “Bart-Mangled Banner” when he mooned the American flag [he got thrown in jail].
