OMG have you tried these? I've been a big fan of the regular Starburst jellybeans since my best friend turned me on to them, but the sour ones are out-of-this-world tremendous. I don't even want to compute the number of grams of sugar I've ingested in the past couple of weeks due to the fact that these are on the shelves with the Easter candy at my local supermarket.

In other shopping news, Monstro and Lex and I went to Staples yesterday to get an ethernet card for our pastor. A catchy tune by the Bee-Gees was piping in over the Musak and Monstro and I began boogieing down in the mp3 aisle.

“You know, honey,” I said, mid-boogie, “the fact that we're dancing in the aisles of Staples to the Bee-Gees tells me that we need to be getting out more often.

We'll have a prime opportunity for getting out this week — not only will we be celebrating our fourth wedding anniversary, but we're also going to head to DC for a few days to visit friends. Lex is engaged to these friends' toddler daughter, so it's important that they have ample time to bond. I for one am very much looking forward to getting out of Purgatory, Massachusetts, even if it's for only a few days. Whoot! Road trip!!!
