something purchased at an auction by mistake

i've been worried and worked up anxious, to the point that i believe i made myself sick. today, i'm clammy and feverish and out of it. yesterday, barf. but i'm on the path to recovery. feeling better. work should be fun on monday. just wanted to holla - i'm still around. give me a shout.

this weekend is laura's bachelorette party in put-in-bay (fist pump of enthusiasm). good chance to be around people i love, but i need to always be alert and careful, as my father told me today on the phone:

"Krista. The last time I was in Put-In-Bay, there were several boater men of many ages who were there solely to..." he pauses, likely shooting my mother a dirty look for snickering. "Solely to.. (ahem) pick up young women. I just think you should know that.. I think you should know that you might be, uhm, it's possible you'll be approached by someone with inappropriate intentions." (my mother at this point is laughing openly in the background).

don't worry, dad, i've got a fever, but it's not for dirty sailor lovin'.
