The Adventures of Kinky Reggae: A Vagabond for Beauty

I had an amazing Fall Break back in Chicago, but my time with Nancy deserves its own blog post. Her shower was on my first day back, and it was lovely. Mostly uneventful. Except that I accidentally got her a lesbian wedding card. I missed the "S" at the end of Brides! We both started laughing so hard when she opened it and everyone thought we were crazy. I also presented Nancy with a quilt that my mom and I collaborated on. This was the first and probably last time we will work together. There was some conflict, but I'm happy with how it turned out, and Nancy seemed pleased with it, too. We also got to spend a day together and go explore Franklin Creek State Park.

It is based on a true story, which makes it even scarier. I am fascinated by Ed and Lorraine Warren would be interested in visiting their occult musuem. (But no, I would not lick anything in there, despite what Jason suggests!) Jason kept asking, "Are you going to be okay?" "Of course!" I said. "As long as I don't wake up at 3:07 a.m." And I totally did.
