I read somewhere that you should take with you a fake wedding ring (check! my mom gave me a pretty one last year... is this why boys don't talk to me in Philadelphia?...hmm) and a photo of a man who is supposedly your husband when you travel. I don't feel strongly about this, but I thought it would be fun to give it a shot, so I headed to Facebook to pick out my husband... shouldn't this basically be my dream come true?

Frankly, it was harder than I thought. I didn't realize that my own personal rules of fake marriage would be so conservative. Friends will recall that there are at least three men referred to as
"Future Husband" in Philadelphia... but that would be bad luck, right? Obviously, all ex's are out. Former/failed crushes and other people's boyfriends, who are sometimes one and the same, are both out. Philly dude friends... I don't know what to say. Rajon Rondo, you were definitely a close call, but my grandmother would not approve. These rules left out SO many people, in so many loving photos.

The winner is... Eric Bogin!! Eric, you are a wonderful man that I will never date, have never dated, and does not currently date any of my friends. I will be happy and not at all sad when I see this somewhat loving photo of us from Friendsville 2009. Thank you in advance for being a wonderful fictitious husband. I promise that if our fictitious children attend Brown University, I will not expect you to contribute to their fictitious tuition.

Onto Boston tomorrow...

I can't believe I'm commenting on this, but I am. Umm...don't think ahead to college. Just make sure the kids go to the right college preparatory school. Congratulations, Lauren & Eric. I'm delighted and confused.
