Rule Britannia!

As Sammy and Finbar spend their last few nights in the United States of America, I can't help but look back and remember with great fondness:


  • Coloring cupcake frosting for SuperBowl XXXI;
  • Trying to fit a loveseat into a taxicab on 38th Street;
  • Crisis interventions in the middle of the night;
  • Stopping for ice cream at the Red Rooster;
  • Girl's road trips to Salisbury listening to Delilah;
  • BVJ and BMJ's mental health rides to Dunkies in the mornings;
  • Lying on the floor of the Eliot Hotel in a heap of wheezing, crying laughter;
  • Road Race Sundays at the Clam Shack;
  • Toddie licking Spinach Dip off of Sammy's Pumas;
  • Hitting balls on Randall's Island;
  • Convertibles on vacation;
  • Girl Power day in the sunshine at Deer Valley;
  • Bathroom deprivation on the school bus to the Guinness Fleadh;
  • BVJ calling just to tell me he was walking behind Yauch;
  • Chopping the snake while being serenaded by the unh-unh birds at Grand Cypress;
  • Amanda and Mo carrying a Christmas tree down Second Avenue;
  • Losing my PBA cards on the way to Scranton, PA;
  • Getting Josh Charles updates;
  • Watching the Halloween parade from the roof deck of Bert's friend

We are so looking forward to more adventures - London style!
