ha!!! remember that time at the AMAZING mexican restaurant in Georgetown and we were reminiscing about how our old apt used to argue about everyone having an OCD-and you couldn't remember the whole shower curtain thing?!!! ha!! :) oh, and even though you sleep with one eye open I still love you, and I was still your roommate. I'll think about that tag...
a most lovely tag response my dear heather. if we are indeed long lost gypsy twins then i determine you are the good twin, by far. and p.s. i'd happily go to any of those destinations with you or help start a non-profit. and i love 'the color of water'. xoxo
Mel,I know... I was laughing about that. The next day in the shower, I realized that it was true, and that I had just forgotten about it. ha!
I would love to play tag with you Heather, but I like the kind where you touch people and run like mad. The game is simple, the rules are few. However, I am not sure what I am supposed to do with this blog-tag extravaganza. Do I answer the same questions that you answered? If so, I will have to think deeply about my answers. I don't want to be boring. You may hate pie, but you're sure as sweet as a strawberry pie! Love, Jess
Yes, Jess darling. You just answer the same questions that I answered. But, I won't be offended should you choose to exempt yourself. I, too, prefer the live version of tag. But, in this world of electronics sometimes this is as close as we get, eh?
