15 Seconds of fame....

It's always nice to have your moment in the sun.  Hanako Justice... no, this is not some new superhero that Marvel has put out.  She is a 24-year old Californian who has become a close friend to us both.  She is also Gabby's morning run partner, and together they are training for the Kilimanjaro Half Marathon in February.  She keeps a blog to inform her old high school (which sponsors two St Jude students) of her goings-on.  This week she wrote a post all about us (click here to see it!).  She pretty much hit the nail on the head by saying that we are 80 year olds and 6 year olds, trapped in 30 year old bodies.  (Except for the 30 year old part).  We do in fact go to bed at 8:30, and we do make very childish jokes.  In fact, we have recently spawned a rash of "your face" jokes.  Here is an example, for those of you who are not familiar:

(as we are sitting in the cafeteria eating lunch one day):

Hana: Those cars are actually quite widespread across North America.
Gabby: Your face is widespread across North America.

Yes.  Here we are, helping with the education of Tanzanian children.  Oops.

    and in your honor, I'm going to bed at 8:30 tonight. Your face is going to bed at 8:30 tonight.
