Wednesday, April 15 From Tom To: Meg I like the concept of being loose at the wrist and scatty. Let us all be scatty. T'would be "heaven...

I knew he could have been holding some single mother and her tiny baby hostage, but I couldn't help thinking that even though LuAnn and Junior would have driven him batty at first, by the end of the second day he would have been heating up bottles...
