Mom called from Dulles International Airport. She's flying to Italy to hang out with my brother Vincenzo and his family. She's taking a side trip to Switzerland to hang out with my brother Sweetums and his family. She'll be in the Old World for three weeks. Before she hung up, she told me, "Don't work too hard!" Mom sure is enjoying her retirement.
I wish I were as cool as she is. Bon voyage ma mère!

No doubt about that!

But is he from a respectable family? **DUCKS**
She's lucky there's a chain of family hostels where she can stay for nothing.
