Hi Blair! For Halloween, I dressed up like a traveling worker at the airport. . . LOL! Nope, I was a traveling worker at the airport! I'd been in Baltimore since last Friday working a plastic surgeon trade show. It was definitely an experience. I saw the plastic reconstructive surgeon that's on 90210 - but in that crowd, nobody seemed the least fazed. They are all prima-donna's and famous in their own world.

I had no idea there were that many different providers for surgical tools, implants, lab coats, chin plates, lasers etc. . . The guy that had a booth directly across from us had an injectible filler machine. He kept looping a video showing the device making injections on this ladies' face (Leona Helmsley look-a-like). The injections themselves didn't bother me so much, but it was just that the device worked like a sewing machine and made multiple injections in hard, rapid succession! He was from France and had quite the audience from Brazilian doctors. It was 'kinda funny watching the U.S. Drs. go green around the gills when they realized what he was suggesting. CAN ANYONE SPELL BRUISING AND LOTS OF IT? After 5 days of standing on my feet in heels from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. - I can tell you, my feet needed plastic surgery!

Mark & I have had a weird couple of weeks. He was in Charlotte, NC last Monday through Friday and I left on Friday before he got home for Baltimore. I got home this Wed. night and Mark gets home from Virginia this Friday night. So, it will been almost 2 wks. since I laid eyes on him. Thank goodness for cell phones, right?

Night before last, Devin was going to pick up his girlfriend for dinner date and had a doe run into him. I know that sounds really stupid, but for those that haven't had the experience, the deer just seem to run out of nowhere! You get a flash of either their eyes or the white tail and BAM! Macked up his truck pretty well, but thank goodness he didn't try to swerve to miss her. Said he remembered what we'd always said, "Hang onto the wheel and don't try to swerve!" There have been several people around here that have swerved, missed the deer and ran off the road into the trees, getting seriously injured. The doe hit his headlight and the force swung her body around and into the driver-side door. Thank goodness her legs didn't come through the window. He said, she was stunned and ran off the road into the trees. After he got over the shock and anger of messing up his truck, he was upset that he'd hit a doe. Thank goodness for insurance, right?

That's all that's news from here,

Love,
Tress
