Coming to America...TODAY!


So Meridth and I are coming home a few months earlier than planned so that we can off-set the costs of rent here by living in a hovel in Provo for another three months while I write my dissertation. We're flying into Fort Wayne on FRIDAY THE 13TH (!!!) and we'll hang out in Indiana for a week or so (just long enough for the seventh Harry Potter book to come out) and then we'll drive out west in the Trusty Saturn Ludo, while listening to HP and the Deathly Hallows on CD. What a fab nerd-tastic roadtrip.

Anyway, we can't wait to see everyone (like YOU Betsey!) and stuff.

Hey, has anyone see Harrison Ford in the Indiana Jones costume again? A bit rough around the edges, but he pulls it off better than Arnold in "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines." I'm skeptical about the forthcoming Indiana Jones movie (Shia LaBeouf?) but I'll give it a fair chance.

Yes...like wood pulp. Because it's a book. A fictional printed book. And you're a small small man for insulting it. You should be ashamed, you cad.

Meridth's response:

"No...YOU stink."

karl's just jealous because im in love with Harry Potter.

besides that: shia lebouf is supposed to be like the next big thing (transformers!) so I'm guessing the new IJ won't be worse off because of him.

friday the 13 eek! but did you know that the guy Cessna (like the planes) crashed the first 12 times he flew his plane? so 13 is a Lucky number for flying.

I AM SO EXCITED!!! I think Margie will be home too (I got an email from her telling me that she would be...I could be wrong though).

This is going to be awesome! I love Gimbel family! Meridth, is it bad that I really like the demure picture of you on this post? I think it is adorable!
