happy halloween story!

my kid is now 13, so this was 10 years ago :) he was 3 and it was his first halloween trick-or-treating where he dressed up and went from house to house. we went to oklahoma to visit my aunt and uncle and their kids who are only a few years older than my son. john was dressed as cat in the hat - with a hat that was as tall as he was :) adorable! and our cousin, alex, was dressed up as barbie princess. she was 7 i think. anyway, we got ready to hit the street and alex put her mask on and went over to john and he FAH-REAKED! OUT! it was hilarious :) she'd take the mask off and he was fine, put it on and he was in the fetal position in tears! i'm sure he doesn't remember it, i'll have to remind him :) it was one of the best halloweens ever :) he was always so friendly and comfortable, and my aunt was very familiar with her neighbors so that was cool because john would walk up to every door and just walk right inside :) i tried looking for an image of the mask, can't fi

Rosanne Cash | The List

Did you hear the interview on Fresh Air ? It was great! What an amazing part of Americana, the Cash family. First of all Johnny Cash is her father, that must have been a bit nutty :). And then she, a singer songwriter in her own rite, couldn't sing for years because of nodes on her vocal chords and then she also had brain cancer! She admitted she didn't have the same considerations folks w/o insurance or with bad insurance had, but it's still a big deal no matter... She also has a morbid sense of humor which I love :) And her appreciation for life post brain surgery is pretty awesome. Here's a link to the interview: Rosanne Cash on NPR
