crazy busy!

well, faithful readers (again...mom), i have been quite busy, which would explain why i haven't really updated. i can try though. here are the highlights of the last few weeks:

- i went home for the first time since easter for sarah's graduation party. amanda came with me and we had a lot of fun.
- i've been to quizzo a lot and it's possibly my favorite thing in the city, next to the people and rittenhouse square.
- day one has been crazy! i've had 3 student groups, 2 family groups, and i've been "the mouse" (the host who scurries all over campus to make things run smoothly). i had 1 good group, 1 awful group, and 1 fantastic group. i've met some great kids and i've gotten really close with the summer staff, which is always good.
- last night, we went out for davey's 21st birthday. we went to dolce for dinner, where i managed to spend only $20 total (including tax and tip and whatnot). we went to sassafrass on 2nd street for a while, but then gwen and i left with mikey to go to tavern, which is a gay piano bar in the gay-berhood (which very openly exists in philly. the street signs are marked quite clearly). i didn't think i would sing, but the pianist asked if i sang 'wicked' and i answered 'yes' and he played popular. mike, gwen, and i have fans. :) i had such a good time.

that's really it. i'm working a lot this weekend and i have a lot coming up socially. summers in philly are really what they're cracked up to be.

m.c.

Hello faithful blogger - We just finished pancakes for breakfast which Sarah made. She is trying to keep busy until it is time for her to leave for camp at 12:30. She and Becky are driving down in Becky's car. We hope it all will fit. I'm not surprised to hear you had fun at the piano bar, I'm mean please!! Abby Dyson had a baby boy yesterday at 2:15 am. They named him Parker and all went well. We hung out with the Albrights by the pool last night and christened their fire pit. It was a perfect night for it. We are going to Jackie's college grad. party today and then to Oma & Pappy's for Father's Day tomorrow. We are meeting them at the Provencial House in Emmitsburg at 9:00am. Picnic at their house later in the day. Oma's leg is doing a little better. Uncle Dan's Mom fell and hit her head. She isn't doing too well.
Have a great weekend and we'll talk to you soon.
