Happy Mother's Day! Had a nice lunch with my daughter. She is off to Kilgore TX for 10 weeks. She got a summer job as Audience Service Manager (mostly box office) for the Texas Shakespeare Festival. She was told that this location is more "Southern" than "Texan" and closer to Shrevesport, LA than any Texas city. Also told it is very hot & humid but there is A/C. She gets airfare paid, private grad student housing and 15 meals a week, and a decent stipend. Wash. D.C. is as south as she's ever lived.
Jim- odd names have been around for a while but maybe they are increasing now. Years ago the Child Development class at my school had three girls named Heidi- all spelled differently - Heidi, Hiedi and Hidi. We wondered if the parents of the second girl didn't know how to spell. 🙂
Today is lovely - sunny and low 70's but the cooler weather is coming back - highs in low-middle 50's.
