England??? Who you going to ENGLAND with, there girlie????? Cuz we're going to WALES. WALES!!! Yes, it's maybe part of the Great Britain linkage, but it's called Wales. Here, try it---- say "W"---you can do it----"W". Then "ale" (as in "beer"). Come on..... "ale"-----say it!!! "Ale" Then add a "Z" sound. Yep, "Z." Oh, I know you can do this. "Z" "Z" "Z"

Ok now, put it together-----"W"-----"Ale" (mmmm......beer)----"Z" W--ale--z. WALES!!!

And if we're going anywhere else, it's going to be IREland. IRE---land. IRE (as in ****** off)----land. Where they make good beer and have cool, illuminated manuscripts. Oh... and herding dogs too. Cuz we love herding dogs. And we love sheep. And we love herding dogs that love sheep.

Now all you need, maybe, is some herding dogs that can round you up some reactive T-cells. Hey, there's a novel idea.

(you still practicing how to say "Wales"?)

Dang straight you're glad you got an appt. on the 24th of September. If you had to give up my birthday AND the trip to "W"----"Ale"---"Z", I would have been sad but used the extra seat space to go to sleep in on the plane.
