Trashy 80's music, heck, me too! Don't be ashamed, it's everybody's dirty little secret. I'd be libertarian too, except I can't stand the general propensity of certain libertarians to oppose gun control and support absurdly racist 'IQ correlated with wealth of nations' theories.

And BigGeek sounds like the perfect male. Does he have brothers/clones?

Preethi said...

I'm sure you're keeping a close eye on BigGeek's exercise regimen and his diet. He'll be fine, and I hope it's a quick recovery.

Yet Another Mother Runner said...

For 10/5 - Gonna miss you too :(
;)
Neat post!

Won't ask you not to worry. But I will say this - you are one heck of a woman with amazing courage!
You're doing so well being on top of it all. BigGeek has recovered so well...! Sending Happy thoughts your way :)

*Hugs* for No. 7

Yes he is going to be OK - because he is already taking good care of his health (from what I have read in your posts) and you are helping him in every way you can (again - judging from your posts).

No. 1 - You lie? Or you lied (somewhere in this post)? :P

Know how you must feel for 10/3.

9/9 - Really? Why do I feel I have read one post on your blog that gave me an idea that you had already found it and were very secure in the knowledge? By the way - me too!

Unknown said...

*hugs for point no 7* He will. Dont worry.

Itchingtowrite said...

the 10 things was cool! and big geek will be ok

noon said...

Hi Dotmom - it's been crazy here...hardly time to make a normal post let alone tags about myself which I find quite hard to do somehow!
Anyways - Hugs to you on No.7. I can imagine how that will be the top thing on your mind...praying for his good health (and all of yours as well of course).
Not sure if you have left - have a safe trip without any sickness or flight delays! Look forward to your posts after you get back...

Rohini said...

Love the confession ;-)

Sue said...

He'll be ok. He's young, he is scared and realises just how traumatic the experience was for you and Chip. So I'm sure he's being as careful as he can.

Mona said...
