Me.<\/p>\n<p>My lovely friend B. is taking Addie, and my other lovely friend Jamie is taking Em for the weekend so I get to go hang with J. and see the Colts win a SuperBowl.

Do you have any idea what a treat that is? A big coffee. My iPod. A few magazines. A few books. And nobody asking for snacks, the DVD player, crayons, bubblegum&#8230;oh. I can hardly wait.<\/p>\n<p>I mean&#8230;oh, I&#8217;m going to miss my girlies so very much! Yes.
