Oh, I forgot.
On Monday I got to have dinner with an old roommate of mine from my living in Italy days. We were roomies for a month, and she was my first roommate there. She is with her husband in Texarkana right now adopting a beautiful little girl. They named her Josie Lindale Christensen.

Anyway, due to some paperwork complications, they're stuck in Texarkana until the Monday before Thanksgiving. So they packed up on Monday (the 15th) and drove to Dallas to have dinner with Matt and I at Two Guys from Italy. Yumm.
It was really neat to see her again after so long. It's been about ten years, heh. They're living in Utah somewhere near Salt Lake. She teaches English Lit and French, which I find highly amusing since she speaks better Italian than French by far. Although it turns out that she had six years of it in grade school, and then studied it in college as well. However, even ten years of book learning can not match a year and a half of living and breathing a language in its original country.
We had a very nice visit and I got to admire her new little daughter. What a cutie! I still don't really know what to do with infants, though. Heh.
