You met Charles Barkley???? I was once in an elevator (in Chicago) with a bunch of NBA players. I came up to their (collective) crotches. I'm 5'9". I was scared to look up.
Shameless is a good thing. ;) I copied (aka, purloined, pilfered, pinched, borrowed...) this one from Ree, too, I just haven't posted it yet.
It's ridiculous how much I love doing and reading these things.
You are so accomplished! I'll be looking forward to your Thanksgiving story, BTW.
I've given you an award, so please accept it!
Oh - I played flute badly, too.
Good for you on the food poisoning. Family picnic and bad chicken meant that my 1 year old was the only one in the family that didn't get it.
