I’ve looked all over for the broom and haven’t found it. LAdy Chance tells me the kids were out back in the woods for a bit. If it’s out there it won’t be found until doomsday.

I’ll look again today and run it down there if I find it.

I don’t know what the clasp looks like. Can you give me a clue?

It’s got two metal diamond shaped black clips on each side, and elastic or something between them.

You can sort of see it here: [http://tinyurl.com/2chu](http://tinyurl.com/2chu)

Dominic left his broom in the corner of the living room near the door, and that’s where it was when we left. (Not that that’s any help now, of course…)

My guess about the dishwasher is that it has a smoother surface than most of the other things you can lean back against while sitting on the kitchen floor.

As to the rest of it: you can’t fall off the floor. 🙂

The missus and I had a great time!

You know…

After reading these threads no one is going to believe that I actually am a very light drinker.

Really.

So am I. I had root beer and orange soda all night 🙂

I had one drink that felt like seven, due to the Benadryl. Poor Dave had to drive home.
