I, for one, am dying to stay in Liese's guest room. For the record.
Is that just to get away from your children?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Liese, do you mind reminding me what town you live in? Or name the nearest place big enough you don't mind saying.
It's the White Mountains. The nearest town is still small: Show Low. It's maybe three and a half hours northeast of Phoenix. It's about three and a half hours from everywhere, frankly, Tucson, Flagstaff, you name it, we're three and a half hours from it.
Jerome is actually a super beautiful area. It's near Sedona, which is one of our favorite local vacation spots. We spent the 2000 New Year's there before we ever moved out here and got snowed in on the trail, and we spent one of our anniversaries there, whereupon we totaled our van. But it's still great! You should go!
I just did the Grand Circle 2 years ago, but I would so do it again.
Yes, but you did it when I wasn't there, over the summer, right? You need to do it again when I am!

You should all come!

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Oh, wow. A family friend lives in Show Low. I've never been there, though. I love that town's name.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Named for the turn of a card. The town was originally ranchland, and the two ranchers said, this town isn't big enough for you and me. They played a card game for it, Show Low, and the guy won on the deuce of clubs, which is the name of our main street. There's a statue of them. You can get your picture taken sitting like you're playing cards with them.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Weight watchers, yes, and now you're completely dependent on their site for points calculation; which would not be a big deal if their site wasn't possibly the worst thing on the internet.
You can buy a PointsPlus calculator for $6 at a WW center. I'm trying to figure out the new plan. My meeting is on Sat so I reckon I'll figure it out then.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Named for the turn of a card.
Huh. That's cool.
Bear Creek, WI was named after a man was attacked by a bear in a creek. OK, maybe not as cool as Show Low.

Well, my cousin and his wife are now running the only place to eat in Jerome, and currently they are the only people working there, so if you're ever in there, say hi from me!

I was about to say, screw that noise! But it probably is worth $6. Sigh. Actually, this is probably a good thing. I've been so frustrated lately with an inability to lose weight that I've been researching slimfast, of all things. Maybe this will get me back on track.
