In two weekends, I'm going to Philly for a friend's party, celebrating his wedding in Israel (yesterday), and staying with some college friends while I'm there. This is good.

Why didn't anyone read the rules? No one is allowed to have gatherings that I want to go to before checking with me!

I hear Liberia is really nice this time of year. There's no escaping the Blahs there, though. ;)

Not quite so nice if those soldiers actually have come down with malaria, as I heard this morning, even having had anti-malarials...
