Hi! I’m in Oklahoma!
Oklahoma is OK, thanks for asking. It’s hot. Very hot. Yesterday, I ran at 6:30 in the morning and died.
The end.
****************************
Currently, my brain will only assimilate sentences suitable for small children. And lists – I can deal with lists, so let’s go.
1. Remember our lovely beach bungalow up for sale for eleventy billion dollars? Remember the sadness at the thought of moving? Followed by the confident realization that NO ONE in their right mind would purchase such a bungalow for the unbelievably exorbitant price?
Well, I was right. No one would purchase our home for that much money.
But, they did purchase it for the unbelievably exorbitant price minus a large chunk of change.
In escrow. Inspections currently in process.
Hi! Did I mention we are in Oklahoma?
2. Let’s not dwell. Looks like the new owner might keep us in the property. Can everyone keep their fingers crossed?
3. It’s Wito’s 1st birthday! Big party this afternoon! With sugar and presents and a mini-Blogher conference. Shall we call it Blogher 0.5?
4. Many preparations are in order, so I must say goodbye for the time being. I’ll be back, post-sugar highs and wine headaches.
Happy Birthday, Wito!

August 5, 2007 at 9:31 amI went to college in the midwest and ran track and cross country. I nearly died too. Especially in the spring/fall humidity and heat. That cracked me up.

August 6, 2007 at 6:57 amI have this policy about not reading blogs over the weekend, and it looks like this time around it came back to bite me.
Wow, I’m sorry. But I’m NOT dwelling. I swear. Everything will work out.
Whee!

August 6, 2007 at 7:22 amHappy BirthAnniversary to the darling Wito! And I’m sorry, but I think congrats are in order for the equally darling parents of Wito for not losing, maiming, or forgetting Wito in a public place ALL YEAR LONG (this is, I’m pretty sure, what I would do if I had a child at this point in my life, yay me!) so… woohoo to you two!
And ugh, I drove through the big OKC on the way back from CO last week…just driving through was enough for me. Hot, hot and more hot. My poor parents… had to leave them there b/c, well, they live there. Although we got back to Cleveland and it was like 4 gajillion degrees…4 GAJILLION, PEOPLE! le sigh.
Have so much fun today!!!

We just went through birthday weekend ourselves. Charlie may never be the same, he now expects cake with each meal.
Congratulations on surviving the first year!

August 6, 2007 at 9:51 amOh shit. I thought I commented on this on Saturday, because good googly moogly, happy birthday, little Wito! Belated, that is, from his many cyberaunties.

August 6, 2007 at 10:44 amOh my goodness. I can’t believe he’s already one – seems like yesterday that icky men were looking at your pregnancy pics on Flickr. Ahhhh. Those were the days.
Happy first birthday, sweet boy. Want to go to prom with me in a few years? I’ll probably still be single.
