ZiegfeldGirl

I may not be around much in May. We have piano recitals, dance recitals, girl scout bridging ceremonies, preschool graduation, sixth grade graduation...to name a few of our most important activities this month. But I want to plan a fun thread, a joke-off or a relay story or something. PM me with ideas or themes, and we'll have a nice, non-politically charged, bi-partisan good time in a few weeks!
