Back in Jersey

Yeah, so I'm back in Jersey. I had an eventful trip to the land of Beef & Butter! I'd like to take a few seconds to give shoutouts to awl the people who helped make this trip possible. Thanks Trish, Randy & Dash for picking me up from the airport, gettin' the car to me & hangin' out on Sunday night! I hope the "Shrimpzoto" was good! Thanks to Amy for letting me use her car, it was fun drivin' stick again & for helping Maggie out back in Jersey!!!!! Thanks Jane & Henry for coming to hang out on Sunday, it was great to see you guys! Thanks to Seagrams 7 for getting me into the zone on Sunday! Thanks to my Moms for picking up the baby on Monday!!! Thanks to Gigi & Papa Ken for the letting me stay at their casa & feeding me those great dinners!!!! Pasta con Sarde.... MMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!

So take a look a the pictures of the largest icicle ever!!!! It's cool cuz it developed away from the building on the wires!!!! It formed behind Gigi & papa Ken's house, we were waiting for the wires to come down!!!!!!! Of course I couldn't help myself & had to post a few new pics of Master P..... I expect raving peoples!!!!

So I had a busy.... busy trip.... I've become very proficient at geting "downtown" (listen to me soundinn' like I know where I'm going!) from Evanston. I went back & forth to McKormick Place & the Hotel the rest of my peeps were staying at about 1,000 times. We went to Ditkas (ya know from da bears) Steakhouse for a party one night & ate at a great steakhouse another night! All on all it was a great trip. The tradeshow was very impressive. Next year it's gonna be in Orlando, and the year after that in Vegas!!! HAAAAAAY!!!!

It was hard being away from my family for such a long time. It's crazy how alone you feel when your away from the ones you love the most. By the end of the trip I was "chompin' at the bit" to get home!! Maggie helped out bigtoim by getting me on an earlier flight, for free!!!! Go Babe!! Of course the plane broke once we boarded & they had us sit in there for an hour while they fixed it! But with a 100 mph tailwind we made up the time in the air & were only 15 min late to Newark (pronounced Newrk)... Jerry (my pops) was there to pick me up in his new ride, a Toyoter Camry... I was the 1st passenger!!!! After a short car ride I was home, hopped in my car & picked up the baby. We went home to wait for Maggie!!! Soon we were all together again!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!! Special shoutout to Maggie for the great job shovelling because of course there was a blizzard when I was gone!!!!!
