Metamorphosis
It amazes me, sometimes, that Jack and I are a successful couple. It feels like we could each list our top ten interests and not have a single overlap (though, I am actually guessing that we would have one or two). I feel like we could be a riddle sometimes: What do a chemical/biotech/pharma engineer and an English major/massage therapist have in common? A good answer would be absolutely...
December 2-December 8
Juliet got a stuffed up nose the Sunday after Thanksgiving and it continued to run, run, run, for a whole week and a half. She had a fever the first day but she was great after that.
