ok, so my boy just called from belgium, and he seems ready to come home.......we are ready for him to come home......the cat is more than ready for him to come home......we have equipped the guest room with the portable tv/vcr and all of the non-juvenile vhs movies....this child reportedly likes movies.........so when he gets bored he can hole up in his room with a good flick.......if he gets really bored, we can always bring up the disney movies........
