[AGL] social notes, added onto and mused over

[michele mason]

Frances, how kind of you to mention me. I wish I hadn't missed the 
party. I had been working on waking up at 5 and teaching at church and 
other church stuff. Came home and crashed. I think, if its not too much 
trouble, someone call—usually Mike does. Remind me of such things as I 
am totally self-occupied. Glad you all had a good time.  mm (doing the 
same this AM)
