Jonathan -- a fun familiar face from home


As we were approaching Marsh Chapel this past afternoon I saw a guy standing on the steps and thought to myself, being in an unfamiliar city, "that guy looks like Jonathan," and it pleasantly dawned on me that it was Jonathan. Our good friend and long time dinner party compadre is Liane's best friend and one of the ushers/attendants in the wedding. He and his childhood friend, Jason, are staying at one of the swanky hotels in the theater district for the weekend and it is so nice to get to see the amazing Boston sites with him. Jonathan lived in Boston for a year and knows how to get around the subway lines. We are planning a big shopping trip Sunday in the neighborhood where we had dinner tonight (close to Fenway Park). We briefly got trapped in a shopping dream fantasy turned reality in Urban Outfitters until Karen pulled a major intervention and got us out of there and back on track to the restaurant. Otherwise I might still there.

Jonathan is pictured here with Liane's Aunt Cath at tonight's rehearal dinner at Charley's Eating and Drinking Saloon on Newbury Street.

Happy Birthday Audrey Rose!

Audrey Rose Georges turned one year old today. Her mom, Angela, made this wonderful invitation for the occasion and has done an excellent job of documenting Audrey from a positive pregnancy test to her most recent milestone, taking her first steps, through her blog, My Daily Struggle . This is one well-documented and adored kid and I hope Angela and Papa Tim congratulate themselves on 12 months of excellent hard work. Audrey is a little superstar.

"It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand"

Does anyone remember the video for this song. It was so stupid. The Banarama girls were being followed by a trucker and they threw some banana peels on his windshield -- like that would stop him. Any other '80s fans out there remember any more details? I still loved the group and still love the song. I actually have this single on vinyl -- just like the picture. Tomorrow will be a beast. Today the air conditioning was like the Little Engine that Could except this little engine never made it over the hill. The dog pants all the time like she can never quite catch her breath and outside it is just nasty. Even at midnight tonight it was still 85 degrees and a super sauna outside. I have an elaborate system of fans set up in the bedroom and it helps. Andi even has her own fan and she sleeps jacked up right next to it. To add insult to injury, K called me at work frantic last night, "THERE IS A POSSUM IN THE BASEMENT!" If that exclamation doesn't typify the deep south I d...
