Mom and I went shopping last night and today. I got everything I need for my trip to Germany. I even got a pair of flats. Heiko is about an inch taller than me, but when I wear shoes, I tower over him. That is the way I feel, at least. So I figure if I wear flats we can continue to enforce the social code that men must be taller. Is it a social code or just a quirk of my own personality? Jackie O towered over Ari. Cher towered over Sonny. Mrs Cunningham was taller than Howard. Why does it feel so wrong to me? I love being tall. I just wish Heiko was taller. I wish men on a whole were taller. At any rate, I have a new pair of flats and all will be fine.
I am going to Chicago tomorrow. My company is providing a 3-day Project Management course. I am going a day early so I can spend time with my other favorite cousin (Sharon) and her family– [You see Mark, you are all my favorite cousins!] — it should be fun.
