This just kind of came to me the other day. If this sounds at all like anyone else's story I am very sorry. That just means that I have read your story so many times I have it memorized.

Chapter 5

November 22 2000

I am going to kill the boys. I walked into my office this morning to find two turkeys walking loose around my office. It turns out that I have to decide which of them President will pardon. The other turkey has to be sent back to the farm so he can be someone's turkey dinner. I ended up picking Eric because Troy doesn't like to be touched. I don't want Troy to be killed, I'll figure out something.

I invited the boys to have Thanksgiving dinner with Leo and me. Toby asked me if I could cook, I said that Boston Market was cooking for me this year. So for dinner tomorrow there will be ten people: Leo, Sam, Josh, Toby, Donna, Margaret, Carol, Charlie and his sister, and of course me.

I just got back from a concert that I didn't really get to see much of. Sam and I were asked to go so that we could try to figure out a broader theme for the classroom tomorrow. I really didn't want to go because I had promoted Simon to be my new deputy and some of the people I interview but rejected would be there. Since I was a little upset about Gary Saunders booing me, I ended up almost shouting to Tad Whitney that I was great in bed and a few guys near by heard me.

Once we got back to the White House we had to update the President and I mention that depending on who those guys were a story might get out about what I said. Leo over heard it and told me that when we get home I need to prove it to him, I can and will do that.

Something is going on with Josh and it is starting to scare me. He yelled at the President and then he somehow hurt his hand. I don't think I know the whole story yet. Leo has called in someone to talk to him. I think Leo knows what is going on.

Leo is finally home I thought he was going to miss our first Christmas as an engaged couple. He told me that Josh has PTSD and he is going to need everyone's help to get him through this. I will help in anyway I can.

Leo and I are going to have a quiet dinner in tonight and tomorrow we are all getting together at Toby's place for dinner. Toby is going to be cooking this dinner, so I better make sure I bring the takeout menus.

Dinner last night, I am surprised to say, was very good. Who knew that Toby could cook, he must have gotten it from all those years of watching Miss Julia Child. I think that the whole night went really well. Josh laughed for the first time since he came back to work.

Once Leo and I got home we exchanged gifts. I got him two pairs of cuff links, one pair was simple gold with his intials on one and mine on the other. The other pair was a joke pair, a pair of neon green dice.

He gave me a beautiful chain that had a gold heart with a large pear shape amethyst stone in the center and eight small round green sapphires around the outside. I really love it.

He also told me that we are going to be leaving for a few days, but he won't tell me where. I can't wait, because we have not been away from every thing for awhile.

December 31 2000

The last few days have been so great. Leo took me to Hawaii. We just got to Manchester for the President's New Year's Eve party. Everyone was trying to get details of our vacation from me, but I wouldn't tell them anything.

I finally got them to stop by asking Josh if he really wanted details, when he said yes I started to tell him about what happened when we first got to the room. Leos faced started to turn red and when Josh saw him he made me stop and told me to never give him details again.

The Leadership Breakfast is in a few days. I think every thing will work out all right, now that we know the idiot boys did not burn down the white house.

I was working with a bunch of people on the seating arrangements. Once we figured out where everyone, but the President, were going to sit Ginger came in and asked if any smelled smoke.

It turned out Josh and Sam tried to light a fire in a fire place that had the flu welded shut. Poor Charlie had to wake the President.

January 13 2001

My fiancé is an idiot. He told Josh to go apologize to Karen Cahill for a joke Leo made about her shoes.

Josh sent Sam to do it. Sam said Kyrgyzstan instead of Kazakhstan. So he sent Donna to apologize and she dropped a pair of underwear at Karen's feet. Which Karen then sent back to Josh who played with them until Donna took them back.

The Leadership breakfast was a disaster, because Ann Stark is a total bitch. I will not get into it here because I will most likely tear apart this book if I get started.
