thanks to everyone who attended this year's second annual cookout at our place, and brought the 4 tons of food and drink. everything (and I do think I have now eaten a little of EVERYthing) was delicious, and the weather was gorgeous, and the company was fabulous, as usual.

my regrets are as follows:
1) not enough time in the day for socializing with everyone.
2) that my parents left before seeing many folks they knew.
3) that my parents seemed antisocial, when they were really just comfortable being out of the way of two loud and "in control" Polish women.
4) that i didnt get to spend much time with the parents (as they will soon be migrating south for the winter again)
5) that you folks who didnt show missed out on a TON of good food, which I am now being forced to eat by the bushel for the next week, so that Nala can get back on his diet...
6) that some of my closest friends couldnt make it
7) that some who did make it, didnt get to stay longer.
8) that we didnt get more work done beforehand.

It was a perfect day, and thanks to everyone for that.
