here's the deal

We walked our asses off in the city yesterday. It's true. We no longer have asses.
It was 94 degrees.
Poppy bought everything that caught her fancy.
Wendy fell into a dead faint over fabrics.
Susie marveled over the sights and flirted with firemen.
We had dim sum one table away from a very famous photographer.
We left Poppy in town - she met a friend for dinner and then my real life girlfriends came over for drinks to meet my blog pals.
It turns out that worlds CAN collide.

Today, we get Jen from the airport and head out to the beach.
I've mentioned that Susie has never seen the ocean, haven't I?

I'll report on the hilarity ASAP.

Being a coastal brat, I can't fathom never having seen the ocean. It's so cool that Susie gets to see it! We, of course, need an explicit description of her reaction. :)

You're going to need a vacation after this. Too bad Wellfleet wasn't AFTER BlogHere.

While you're frolicking on the beach, I'll be at work. Think of me at least, will ya'?

Birthday??? Oh my! What a cool birthday weekend you're having! Whee!

Happy Birthday, my dear e-friend. You deserve only the best.

What?! It's your birthday? Many happy returns of the day.

Sounds like you guys are having a blast. Kiss Susie for me.
Happy Birthday! With girlfriends to share the joy!
Have a great day.

Good thing K outed you.
I would've done that instead.
Just sayin...
You can tell Susie that after the ocean she MUST see the Tyrrhenian (Meditteranean). MUST, I say.
Buon compleanno mia cara.

If Susie hasn't seen A Mountain, send her my way. We've got the Big Ones here.
I don't know what I'm more envious about - the friends, the fabric, the fulfilling of one's fancy or the dim sum; ah, which would be another 'f' as in 'food'.
Have Phun. Only two more days of BlogHere, Wahhhhhhhhh!

Was the photographer Leibovitz?
