picnic with erick and d. tomorrow at e's cousin's place. ought to pass the time, anyway... going to give them a pair of social d./tiger army tickets for their anniversary. need a vacation desperately, but don't know where to go. mel really wants me to go to buffalo with her, but i'm not too into that idea. what the hell am i going to do up there for a week. still, it would be good just to get away. wish i could go out to minneapolis and see steve and rae. miss them. ah well, c'est la vie.
