I would have sent you a silver bullet.<BR/><BR/>Ahh, to be 34 again. I was on top of the world. I was a news director, living in Japan. I guess it's a different perception depending on whether you're looking ahead or looking behind.

Besides... don't get hung up on the number... My meltdown occurred when I turned 30... that was 11 years ago and I've gotten better with age... if I do say so... enjoy the attention and well wishes. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9472428.post-1167495119789396202006-12-30T11:11:00.000-05:002006-12-30T11:11:00.000-05:00I was going to ask you too about switching.Wow now...I was going to ask you too about switching.<BR/><BR/>Wow now that you have a new tv you need an upgraded apartment to go with it.

I put it in the slow cooker and just let it cook itself. I sometimes make a roux and sometimes not. But I always put a tablespoon of white vinegar in my bowl before I eat it. I guess that's a family thing. That's how I remember it from my childhood.<BR/><BR/>It Lone Rangerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13278448546799358207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9472428.post-1167480177752023862006-12-30T07:02:00.000-05:002006-12-30T07:02:00.000-05:00I wish I liked bean soup.
