In other news, mom visited this weekend.  Saw Kew Gardens, Covent Garden market, a cathedral, Harrod's, Brick Lane, Hyde Park, Trefalgar Square, the V&A, Billy Elliot, BBC jazz concert, Calendar Girls, pubs. 

Went to Glasgow, Scotland, with Evan last weekend.   Really fun and relaxing.  Visited Loch Lomond.  Wrote this song:  ROCKS ROCKS WATER IN MY SOCKS /  Going on a journey by the lomond LOCH /  take it all in!  better take stock! /  then hurry for a whiskey at the bar down the block!  LOCH! LOMOND!  LOCH!  LOMOND!  LOCH!  LOMOND!  LOCH!  LOMOND!  ((and repeat)) ...It was a smashing success, I think.

Starting to see Chapel Hill friends everyone in London.  Today, I "saw" Owen and Jonah.  Cheers.

Also, happy belated birthday to Shauna if she reads this!! :) :)
