There's been some swine flu going around here, and tonight my mom called me to make sure I was feeling okay and to make sure I would call her if I got sick. Apparently there have been enough outbreaks for it to make the news

Chris likes meatloaf. It is not as gross as I thought it would be before I actually had meatloaf. (I literally ate it for the first time in my life last year.) Making bread would be cool. Have you done that before? I would be interested. Also, do you make regular bread or like banana bread or something? Chris is into raisin bread for breakfast but I have to assume you're not down with that.

I know it makes no sense, but I totally like to think that my lack of an accent helps me speak Spanish better! I feel like strongly accented people have trouble with emphasis and things. Also, I feel like NWA isn't really the same as the rest of Arkansas (a bit more liberal and educated), so you have that going for you. Do they think Angela has an accent?

Any seeing each other would be awesome. It is also looking like St. Louis is EXACTLY in between us if you wanted to visit there sometime. There's cool stuff in St. Louis, right? We're pretty good about sleeping on floors or whatever. We've shared a twin bed before. I will ask Chris if he would be interested in a cheap hotel or something, though, because he doesn't like to "bother anyone". Don't worry about Coco, though, she couldn't be half the bother Garfield is! (For one thing, she's only half the cat!) You've stayed in my house, so you know the basic options, but we're working on getting a bed for one of the spare bedrooms, and then you'd really have your own space. Also, we took the mattress out of the couch and put it in the library when Ray was here (he referred to it as his room while he was here, which made me happy), so that's always an option for now. You'd even have a closet! And all the books you could handle. You could put a poster up if you were so inclined (I'm considering adding one of The Wizard of Oz).

Notice: You are officially not allowed to get swine flu.

Problem solved.

I am indeed anti-raisin bread. I have some mixes for some cool breads, but I could be down with making it from scratch too.

I think my lack of accent makes my French better. Angela doesn't have an accent either. Maybe it is Northwest Arkansas, although she's not from there and neither are you, and neither of you has an accent.

I just worry that you wouldn't have room on the floor. There's barely enough room for two people to lie side by side on the floor in my living room or in my bedroom. Also, my floor is slanted which is just awkward. If I had a pull-out couch that would be good, but I don't even have a full-length couch anymore - just a loveseat. We'll figure it all out, though.

I'm actively trying not to get the swine flu. :)
