Free Maddie! ! !

Dear readers,

I am sorry to report that I am the latest casualty of overshare in the blogosphere. I only wanted to be in a car, and now I am in-car, all right -- in-car-cer-a-ted (I learned that word from my Baby Einstein Baby Prison DVD):


It all began with my fake ID. Cute Barritt and I rented a car and drove downtown, and we had just gotten past the velvet rope at Eleven50. Everything was going fabulously, and I was about to order a Reflux Russian (a White Russian made with Enfamil AR) when suddenly a bouncer came out of nowhere and snagged us!

So, which one of you turned me in? I hope I don't sound paranoid, but really, what else could have given away the fact that we are under 21?

At least I'm not the first person to get dinged for TMI.

"Daddy, will you play me 'Folsom Prison Blues' ?"

I hear that train a-comin', it's rollin' 'round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
I'm stuck in Russell prison and time keeps draggin' on
But that train keeps a-rollin' on down to San Antone

When I was just a baby, my papa told me lots
--like not to make fake documents by using Photoshop--
But I snuck into a dance club, and I told a lie
When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head and cry

I bet there's rich kids snackin' as that old steam engine huffs
They're probably drinking formula and eatin' Veggie Puffs
But I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
But those babies keep a-movin' and that's what tortures me

Oh Maddie, I know, I know.
I thought that with Dad distracted with exams and Mom not being too quick on her feet these days, we'd get away with it. I'm just hoping they don't pull out this trick again.

Maddie,
I'm sorry to hear that you got caught but if it's any consolation (although not to your parents) your fake was way better than the one I operated with in college. I had to pretend to be two inches shorter and a good 30 pounds heavier.
In other news, I'm spending this Saturday evening watching my baby friend while her family goes to a wedding (your mother is going to be incredibly impressed). Any tips or advice for me? This is my very first one-on-one session with a baby and I'm secretly terrified but I don't want anyone (especially her) to catch on. Thanks for your help...
L,
Abbey

Sweetheart,
1. It might be time for Mommy to cut your bangs. See how much they have grown since March 19, 2006!
2. Does Daddy let you play the guitar?
3. What will you have for Thanksgiving dinner?
4. I'm coming down to bust you out of jail soon.
Love, Gram
