Thanks to everyone who wrote on my website, e-mailed or text messaged yesterday. It was a little overwhelming getting all the messages at once. I have to admit I kinda teared up.

So just to set things straight, Ben remember when you called me a cry baby at FCA? Jamie, remember when I fell off Ross’s grandpa’s horse and left you for dead? Nanu, remember temptation island and guessing how Diana would react to the plants we found? Shylah, remember filming Plasmic Man 2 and watching Children of the Corn? Ross, remember chasing me around at Y-camp (that was the start of lots of good times)? Spike Daddy, remember swinging on my swing (well don’t do it why I’m away, I have spies)? Michaeleen (or should I say Micalin) remember that time you were drunk in remote sensing? Oh wait, that was the entire semester. Rory, remember throwing “lemonade” at José’s car and the ensuing problems? Bruce Hunter, remember bailing me out when I had two cars that needed jumped, then left one running with the door locked. Brenda, remember me stealing your candy and hiding me from doing work at Younkers? Gabrielle, remember when you used to ride my back in the swimming pool when I went underwater? Aunt Jeanie, remember when James and I danced at your table singing “Summer Loving” during Joe’s wedding. Aunt Susie, remember Risk (your favourite game)? We will have to play 4 games in a row when I get back. James, remember when you were a little baby and you used to cry… oh wait that was me. Brian, Remember The Snake Monster…I still have nightmares you bully (jk). Dad and Julie, remember Mr. Keith, or “welcome to my humble commode”, or beeping the fire alarm? Mom, remember when I tried to drive the car when I was 4, or when I ate shoe powder (was that the same year?) or when I sliced my hands hanging from the coat hanger, or when I did something stupid and had to go to the hospital (the many many times)?

I hope I didn’t forget anyone. I miss and love all of you. Thank you so much for making me miserably homesick on my birthday!! I’ll try to keep my crazy hijinxs to a minimum so I can get back to all of you safe and sound.
