I would have written earlier except that I have to go through so many iterations of possible usernames and passwords (since I can never remember how I registered) that once I type something I have so much invested I can hardly make myself start.<BR/>You did NOT "get" me. There was so much revelry on April 1 in your growing up years that I am totally on guard. The only surprise I got was that you did not manage to arrange something across the sea that directly affected me. My clocks were unharmed, my newspaper was normal, and my coffee did not turn my mouth black. So, there you have it. <BR/>I am leaving for Frankfurt April 24. So, see you soon (just in case)Mmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11323606421351754039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156449337817322945.post-41163563169120507432008-04-08T23:01:00.000-04:002008-04-08T23:01:00.000-04:00By the way Valerie.

Still not yet.<BR/>Poopy- ditto<BR/>Summer- yeah, it's been said that I have a three year warm up period before I truly feel comfortable around people.<BR/>Beth- haha. Yeah. The power of lying from far enough away that no one can confirm or deny your story and then getting to call it all a joke.<BR/>Twig- glad you liked it.<BR/>Lisa- don't worry. I'd have to run any guy through the family gauntlet before I'd be allowed to marry him, and that's a sobering enough thought that I won't drag anyone into it so lightly as I have here implied.<BR/>Kelly- ahh. You're right. You know me better. Love you too.<BR/>Deanna- I certainly hope that my mother is alright. I haven't heard from her about it though, so I suspect either she hasn't read the post, or her heart is strong enough to handle it.<BR/>Melanie- your comment made me realize it is high time I post something else, so that I don't keep catching people in my trap with the first blog that shows up on my page. Hello to you, by the way! I didn't know you read this. I'll see you sooner than later!Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11839030134789214532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156449337817322945.post-90862316351366392572008-04-06T23:26:00.000-04:002008-04-06T23:26:00.000-04:00Val, Got me too!

However, I am a naturally very trusting person so there was part of me that felt I needed to fly over there and knock some sense into you - or knock the daylights out of him. Sigh. . .this is why I hate April Fools. It's an emotional rollercoaster. But I love you.

Whew, you know how to get a girl's heart racing! Nevertheless, I can totally see you falling for a dashing European man someday! I'm enjoying all of your posts....
