so the itchying thing was probably not an allergic reactin at all, but poison ivy. i've still got it a little bit but its getting better. must....not.....scratch.....

last night joe and i met up with hil and dave in boston and had dinner and tried to go see charlie and the chocolate factory. unfortunately we either fucked up teh times or something, but the 7 oclock that we tried to see wasn't available, so we ended up seeing war of the worlds. i know! i know, i didn't wnat to give crazy tom any of my money either but we didn't want to just turn around and go home. i mean it was allright, the special effects were kinda cool. i think in 30 years its going to be one of those movies that they spoof because of it though. the ending was pretty lame, and true to hollywood form, everyone made it to the end and none of the main characters died. yeah, like that woudl really happen...

tomorrow night joe and i are babysitting for cal and nolen, joe's nephews. i'm kinda nervous because its an overnighter. i really wasn't nervous when i said yes, but as it gets closer, joe is getting more and more weird about it like we're not giong to be able to handle it. umm, the last time i checked, we were both to fairly intelligent adults with phone #s to plenty of parents in case for some reason something came up and we weren't sure of what to do. his nervousness is starting to erk me a bit.
