Hiccup!
I'm so sorry for my long absence, my dearest blog readers. No, I did not drown in a vat of beer while clinging to a wedge of sharp cheddar while on vacay. Though we did bring back some tasty dairy delicacies from Mars Cheese Castle, the finest cheese kingdom in state of Wisconsin. I can't begin to tell you how my life has turned upside-down since coming back from the Land of Cheese and Beer. It's like we went to a foreign destination and returned to our normal lives, only while we were gone, someone decided to put everything in different places to confuse us.
We did that once in college. I shared a dorm room with Nikki, and directly above us lived Clare and Diana. For April Fool's Day freshman year, we swapped our door decorations to see how many people we could confuse. Our dorm only had three floors so it's not like it was hard for people to keep track of what floor they were on, but we still managed to find a few people staring blankly at our door, mumbling in confusion.
Anyway .... I've been sidetracked.
I will post more about our trip later once Hubby, the renowned photographer, posts his photos, but in the meantime .... We picked up our Prius Saturday! George the Prius is so amazing. I never though I would refer to a car as "amazing," but I can't short-change him. I drove George off the lot with a whole five miles of experience under his belt. As we were about halfway into the amazingly tedious drive home on the highway, I called Hubby who was in the Focus in front of me. I told him I wasn't stopping the car. I was just going to keep driving, and I would never relinquish the wheel. I'm in love.
Since entering the blogging world, I have decided that most good blog posts have a cliffhanger. Well, here's mine:
Coming soon .... The Midwestern girl makes a LIFE-ALTERING DECISION, calling on the strength of her friends and family to help her out. And she gets a swell vacation to boot!
But first ... Until I feel comfortable discussing my LIFE-ALTERING DECISION, you folks will have to settle for the long-overdue vacay update and the hilarious story of trying to sell our Focus. Stay tuned!

Man, I had forgotten about that April Fool's prank! There were so many that year... I do remember that Nate Carlisle was completely flummoxed when he came to look for Diana, which was pretty funny.
Also, I totally forgot you were naming your car George when I gave the rat in my apartment this weekend the same name. How's that for a cliffhanger?!
