New York was cold and drizzly when I left. Kansas City was warm when I arrived. It's sunny here. It's green and lovely.

I met Gina's brother-in-law last night and her brother today. Her sister is at a baseball game. I'll meet her tonight. I'm nervous about meeting her. I don't know if she'll like me. Apparently, being worried whether or not she'll like you is the worst thing you can do.

Today we went to The Plaza, which is the prettiest mall I've ever been to. It's all about tiles and mosaics and fountains and outdoors. I refrained from going to the M.A.C. store because I am awesome. Although I've been thinking lately that I should start wearing makeup more often. But I'm not that awesome, because I'm off my diet here. This is an eating-bad-things-for-me vacation. It's heavenly. But please no out-of-control spiralling when I get home.

I saw all of Gina's old stuff-- her old house, her old schools, all that stuff that I like to collect about people. But so far my favourite part of Kansas City is Carly. Carly is Gina's sister's family's dog. She is beautiful. She's part German Shepherd and part Chow. She is my new best friend. I like to roll on the floor with her and scratch her hairy belly. My favourite thing is her dog breath. It's so warm and stinky. I love her drooly dog breath. This is the best dog I've ever met. This is also the most time I've ever spent with a dog. I have almost no real-time dog experience. So I should be really a lot scareder of them, and I am pretty bad at telling her no, because I can't say no to a doggie.
