Sunday we drove six hours to the little town of Wilson, Arkansas, and met Moozie and Paw-Paw to deliver a visitor–Monkey Moos! He is staying with my parents for two whole weeks in Louisiana. And Mommy (and Daddy) miss him like crazy! It sounds like he is having fun, though:  he spent most of yesterday in the pool, played with LA lizards (which bite!), had green eggs and ham for breakfast, and attacked Uncle Chuckie with water balloons today. Some of the same things I remember doing as a kid (especially the lizard part).

We’ve enjoyed ourselves, as well, but in a mellow, subdued, manner. We went and saw the new Star Trek movie yesterday (2 thumbs up). I have also started studying for the LSAT (and am no longer over-confident…maybe not even confident now) and have created a spreadsheet for all my runs (yup, I’m a dork). Big J and I have started running twice a day–once in the morning and once in the evening; today’s grand total was 3 miles. That marathon may just be attainable in this lifetime. But it’s still too quiet in the house. I think even the cats miss Little J harassing them.

But we know he’s having a blast and so are Moozie and Paw-Paw! Here’s a few pics from our mid-way point in AR:
