Madi…is my second favorite college freshman in the whole wide world.

And I hear ya about the questions to Madi! I thought that too——like, what was she saying about her Mom to her DATES! And was it anything like this: That’s my Mom there—hiding in the bushes with the binoculars! Or, come back to my dorm and meet my Mom—-she’s been here for two weeks. (Just teasin’ ya, Tori Dear!)

Do you really think all of us are organized enough to arrange a get-together without major drama AND close-mouthed enough to then keep it from you? Seriously.

I saw the twitter exchanges earlier between Madi and Tori and had to stop myself from firing off an e-mail to Madi to get further details. Y’ know–nosy stuff like: How many dates are we talking? Who are the guys? How did you meet them? Would your Dad approve? What did you say about Tori? Did you warn these guys that you come complete with an entourage of interested parties? Do I need to take a day trip and check them out? Or just do my usual internet stalking? (You people think I’m kidding–I’ve found out lots of stuff about people my kids know through just a little…ahem…inquiry.) ‘Stalking’ is such an ugly word.

I love all the rest of you, too!

And George Clooney, I need your e-mail address.

But, Tori, surely, as the Mother, the only response is ‘EVERY date you’ve been on this month, exactly how many is that?’

LindaB – NO WAY – there could NEVER be a bloomr get together without you!!

And, the facebook thing is just plain annoying. I’m sure we’ll get used to it in time, I just can’t be bothered at the moment to actually figure out how it all works.

HEY! You’re having that Babybloomr get together without me, aren’t ya? I can’t believe it! Somebody call me!

Is this Babybloomr?

I’m gonna check my pill reminder to make sure I took my blood pressure med, and then I’m going back to bed.
