<p>have a D who never uses IM and rarely uses email. Just the phone.</p>

<p>And I was always told that I was one of the cool dads, if only because I could hook up home networks, tivos and such…</p>

<p>D was home for a few days for fall break. It was great to have her around, working on art projects like HS days. She couldn’t wait to get away from our small city, but now there has been some distance, she can see all of its charms. </p>

<p>Also, apparently, the longer she is away at school, the smarter her parents get!</p>

<p>Sadly, the visit was too short. She left for school again today.</p>

<p>Things I could put on my IM to make my kids get in touch?</p>

<p>“Am at Glide Church, donating all my money to Reverend Williams”
“Am at Joseph Cozza’s, finally getting my hair cut and dyed like Annie Lennox as I have promised all these years”
“Cannot talk. Am communicating with unborn babies”
“Call me if you want to know what my children are up to”</p>

8503

<p>I knew someone would get into the spirit of it.</p>

<p>“Feeling like Sephora”</p>

8509

<p>My husband is threatening to bleach his hair like Spike (a la Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel) for Halloween. Half of me kind of hopes he does it just to see how appalled Mathson’s little brother will be. He’s told me I’m allowed to be Illyria which means I get to wear a leotard and give myself blue hair and a blue forehead.</p>

8510

<p>“Joining Fabio in Roma. Back Never.”</p>

8511

<p>Dad and I have upped sticks. Taking a Gap Year. Will write soon.</p>

<p>I couldn’t take it anymore and I put the dog down.</p>

<p>Dad bought a motorcycle.</p>

<p>We’re going to London for a massive shopping trip. Just the two of us.</p>

<p>I bought a Porsche.</p>

8514

<p>I like the Gap Year, may steal that.</p>

8515

<p>Oops. Ran out of money. Guess you’ll have to pay the tuition bills.</p>

<p>Am joining a Buddhist monastery. Getting my head shaved right now.</p>

<p>I have decided to never sleep again.</p>

<p>Remember that baby picture in which you were undressed? The local newspaper is printing it.</p>

<p>I told everyone in our large extended family you’d love to host their kids when they look at colleges.</p>

8516
