Some people have teased me about changing just because I am in the NW.  I may have "adapted" just a bit, but I haven't changed.  For example, I bought square toe shoes, bowling style shoes, something that I resisted for years since a trip to London.  How cool, finally, am I?  So cool to almost overlook how little I have changed.  So I had a retreat with the cabinet today, and Jason went with fountain pen ink all over my hands and with several blobs all over my pants.  So I am a little less cool, shoes not withstanding.
