Jolly Ranchers

I'm done packing. My sister, her husband and his cousin arrive tomorrow morning, we pick up the truck and start loading. It's my last night sleeping in my apartment. I will miss this place. We leave for Southern California on Sunday in the AM and hopefully arrive in the afternoon for unloading and storage. I'm tired. I did a few last minute errands today and got a haircut. My stylist told me a funny story (one that I'm not going to get into here to respect her privacy), but did you know that in jail (or prison), inmates are not allowed to have Jolly Ranchers because you can turn them into shanks? All you need to do is pour hot water on them until they get malleable and you can stretch them out into long points; let it dry and voila, you have a weapon, a la Prison Break. I learn new things everyday. My time here is done...tonight my friend Mark is holding a little nice farewell dinner in the city.

Friends, starting tomorrow, I will not have internet access till I get to SoCal, so if you want to get a hold of me, call me on my cell - which will be active for another month. BTW, My friend Dana just got engaged. Her boyfriend proposed to her in Paris under the Eiffel Tower...congratulations Dana...$200.00?!?
