Dear Diary:

����I tried, I really really tried to convince my kid that by an odd co-incidence Paul and I have to enter the witness protection program next week.

����She didn't buy it. Drat. So sometime next week she might be appearing here with her boyfriend's mother and sister who've come over from France for a visit.

����Well, let me qualify this. The boyfriend SAYS he's from France, and he DOES have that Maurice Chevalier accent thing happening, but I have my suspicions.

����First off, he doesn't like stinky cheese. Helllllloooooo.

����You can imagine how THAT set off all my Mommy Early Warning Protect Daughter Mechanisms. Claims he's from France but doesn't like stinky cheese?

����Hrm.

����Second, he doesn't know any Coneheads, and we ALL know that Coneheads come from France.

����Hrm.

����As you can well imagine, I will be grilling his mother and sister closely about this France business.

����Having visitors also means I'm going to have to break out the shovel and other cleaning equipment and do something about this place. Darn.

����Prymaat Conehead ain't the only woman on this planet who hates housework.

    I can definitely feel a tizzy coming on.

This template is a riff on a design by the truly talented Quinn. Because I'm a html 'tard, I got alot of pity coding to modify it from Ms. Kittay, a woman who can make html roll over, beg, and bring her her slippers. The logo goodness comes from the God of Graphics, the Fuhrer of Fonts, the one, the only El Presidente. I smooch you all. The background image is part of a painting called Higher Calling by Carter Goodrich which graced the cover of the Aug. 3, 1998 issue of The New Yorker Magazine.
