weekend shout-out

+ wanted to post a quick congratulatory shout-out to my strong, beautiful best friend, becca, who completed the houston marathon yesterday! what an incredible feat- one that i could never do, but kind of wish i could! i also wish i had been there to see it... maybe for the next one, b! ;)

i also was lucky enough to spend some time with kate... she finally consistently seems to remember me, probably thanks to the skype-ing we've been doing lately. she is walking now, although she still has some balance issues so she walks with her arms over her head like a bear about to attack. it is too cute! loving the long weekend, sad that it is almost over.

and lastly, my thoughts and prayers go out to all of the hatians who are suffering right now. what a terrible disaster. if you can afford to, donate to relief efforts as they are so, so needed. and to the ever ignorant and ever hate-spewing pat robertson and rush limbaugh... the earthquakes must have missed their intended targets. on behalf of decent americans everywhere, stfu. thanks!
