Home Again
I didn't know it until just a few hours ago, but the five most beautiful words in the English language are:
BOSSIER CITY
NEXT 3 EXITS
We are home again. It only took us about twenty-four hours of driving to get here, but except for a moment during the last hour when I yelled like a demented television mom, the ride went pretty smoothly.
What is it about kids that makes them argue when they've been confined in a small space together for hours and hours? Oh, that's right. It's called human nature!
The house is still standing. Except for one moldy toilet seat and one non-functioning satellite television system, everything is fine here on the home front.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have twenty-two answering machine messages to slog through. Ah, it's good to be home.
