Another insanely busy week has passed. Friday I met up with some friends for for pitchers, pizza, & plenty of girl talk.

Earlier in the week was the first Canadian Tuxedo softball game, (the softball team Todd is on w/ a bunch of his friends). Even though they got creamed, it proved to be a lot of fun. One member is just the boombox player for when the guys go up to bat. The totally sweet selections included 311 and the theme song from the Lion King, just to name a few. Totally hilarious… AND this happens every Tuesday for the next month or so.

Saturday my mom & step dad rolled into town for a short visit. Todd & I took them to Eureka Springs where we randomly happened upon a surprisingly delicious hippy restaurant. Turns out it was owned by the first person to ever open a vegetarian restaurant in Greenwich Village. That was about the most impressive thing we found there. The visit with the fam was quite nice though.

On to more important news.. I simply can’t get over what has happened in New Orleans. I can’t stop trying to wrap my mind around the fact that so many lives are changed in so many different ways. I want to help, but how does someone who doesn’t have money to donate contribute?
