The end is near
Henry and I are fast approaching the end of our week-long vacation. On Thursday, after his nap and while on the way to the bathroom, Henry suddenly stopped and asked "Where's Daddy?" It took him five days but he did eventually realize there was a gaping hole in his life that could only be filled by the presence of his Daddy.
We've been extremely busy, riding lots of trains, doing some toy shopping, running up to Salem, and riding more trains. Today I left Henry in the hands of his Grandparents so I could head off to do some shopping on my own. I bought some clothes, a book (the first book I've ever purchased based purely on the author's good looks), a chai latte, and a Hawaiian crêpe. I thoroughly enjoyed leisurely browsing through stores that I had noticed on previous trips but knew I couldn't fully appreciate with a toddler in tow.
We're heading back to the wilds of central Pennsylvania on Monday. Tomorrow we're going to try and squeeze in as much fun as can possibly be had on the last day of a vacation.
Dave, your days as a bachelor are almost up, so get in all the Doom you can, because we're coming home...

Shopping!!!!!!!!!
I never have gone for the young, blue-eyed type. Dave, after getting a sense for the type of guy I generally go for, once wondered aloud what exactly he himself must look like (devastatingly handsome of course).

Flattery gets you everywhere - shop til you drop.
To try to raise my status among the geeks I normally hang out with I had to marry Jenn so that I would be sure to always be seen in public with a hot babe.
