Retail Therapy

Hey, A,

I'm trying to get a hold of you, but I keep going right into voice mail. I'll keep trying but will also jot a note here.

I'm totally stressed despite the fact that the end is near and I have fun things to look forward to. I'm going to Boston this weekend, NHS induction is Monday, D comes to visit for a week when school is out, and I (still hope to) visit Seattle in August, so I have four occasions crying for a new outfit. Just one outfit. Not even four....So I thought it was totally appropriate to go shopping today after my department meeting to buy myself a new summer outfit. Given that Lord & Taylor has great sales going on, I really scored!

Tomorrow L et. al. come for a visit and you have JJ's game, and then you leave Thursday morning, so this is our last chance to talk about my ticket to Seattle. I'll keep my fingers crossed that we can chat if only for a minute. I'll write more regardless...

Love you!
Barb
