Well,  the big cheese is chipper despite having called in sick for the last two days in a row, and who wouldn't be after a lovely relaxing 4 day weekend?

My brown eyed boy called a couple of times yesterday to keep me informed on his progress.  He arrived safely in New Orleans and is moved into his apartment. He pronounced it nice, but also said it was surrounded by chain link fence and cameras. He doesn't have anything other than a bed, a chair and a couple of lamps so I'm sure he's feeling very displaced and possibly homesick. I did mention that he called a couple of times, right?... I went to bed thinking about him being in a city where he doesn't know a single person in an apartment without furniture,  then woke at 2 AM worrying about him and composing a short grocery shopping list for him in my head.
