I heart my mom

I’m telling you, my mom airmails me every penguin stuffed toy she
comes across. =) And snack food, too. And Christmas cards, hint hint.
Now that’s a care package…

And I love how she reassures me after roommate difficulties by
blogging about her experiences with roommates long long ago. It’s nice
to hear other people’s stories…
