all dressed up
five years ago last night I was bar hopping in a little dress in buckhead with a vanload of friends. I had lots of guiness and one fine dessert if I remember correctly. then it was a return to the "hot house" for the placement of obligatory messages to my new wife, scrawled on my person with markers. but since we're a mild crowd, they used washable markers. poor greg, when it was his turn, we used sharpies at the very last minute. anyway, my favorite part of my mellow bachelor party was just hanging out, talking about the past, present, and future.
who would have thought that 5 years later I'm in the midst of 'round-the-clock baby feedings (that take roughly 2 hours each time), which is much more of a struggle than I ever would have guessed. we've been through some really really hard times and some unbelievably good times, and God has blessed us through them all.

Who'd have thought that five years down the road, I would _still_ be hanging out at the "Hot House" -- I gotta get out of this place. I wonder whatever happened to that dress... I do remember Andy P. wearing it to a GT football game. I think it has made a graceful disappearance since then, thankfully.
Dave, please ask my permission before you bring up my husband wearing women's clothes again.
I'm not sure where that particular dress is. If you really want to wear it again Bob and Dave, I have a few more in my closet. Lynn loves it when I give a good cheer...
