Dear Erika, Claire, Andrea, Heather, Sally, Jennifer, Sara, Suzy, Jeneva, Ken, SingleDad, Erik, Phil, Robert, Noan, Big Daddy, and all of you who have private blog names

hell -- all of you caring for a child, a parent, yourself -- well -- I guess that's everyone. Meet me here:

Melrose Avenue, Los Angeles

So, it's probably a medical marijuana dispensary, but the drinks are on me.

Another view -- and then I had to jump in the car and flee because I was illegally parked and the traffic controller pulled up. Love that -- almost got a ticket in front of the pot store!

    I am SO reminded of the exchange from Field of Dreams, which, for obvious reasons, is one of my all-time favorite films...

    John Kinsella: Is this heaven?
    Ray Kinsella: It's Iowa.
    John Kinsella: Iowa? I could have sworn this was heaven.

    [John starts to walk away]

    Ray Kinsella: Is there a heaven?
    John Kinsella: Oh yeah. It's the place where dreams come true.

    [Ray looks around, seeing his wife playing with their daughter on the porch]

    Ray Kinsella: Maybe this is heaven.

    I'd feel that way in the Medical Marijuana store if I had a card.

    I'm there.

    It's funny I had to snap a picture of a med marijuana store called Re-Leaf.

    Great minds have the same sense of humor!

    Let me see ... I could fly to LA using frequent flier points, my daughter is doing an summer internship with Enterprise, that should get me a deal on a rental car, I've got enough mental health issues that I am sure I could secure a medical marijuana card.

    Count me in.

    The last time I was in California was 1976 when I lived there for over five years. Has much changed since then?
    Thanks for the invite, I'll let you know when I can make it (not if).

    At this moment I am still unsure why I have not gone into a certain someone's stash. I just keep thinking it is for her, not me...but damn!

    My child aspires to move to your fair state and secure himself a medical card. Hmmmmm.

    I love the concept of caregivers lounge.
