Something borrowed,Something blue

Hey guys,

I just got back from my cousin's wedding in Tennessee. It was good to see all of my cousins and uncles and aunts and such. I had a good time. Had some cake,partied like it was 1999 and wonders of wonders























I caught the bouquet. I wasn't really intending to I just happened to be there. Well we rode 5 deep in my mom's Buick century(or lesabre I can never remember). I had fun in the hotel and learning my way around Johnson city. I wish I would have had more time to explore. I'm home now and will be happy to rest in my own bed. The hotel bed was comfortable but it wasn't mine. It's always sad to leave family you don't see that often. You just want to be able to hole up and talk the day away. But alas-it was not meant to be and we headed back making good time(thanks to my daredevil driving antics) and reached home safely and ticket free(GO TEAM!!!)

Crusin

So I left on a jet plane. I was so blessed on this adventure. Not only did we avoid Ike but I got shots










like this

















And this
























From the my window seat in the plane. I absolutely love flying. It's the fastest and safest method of travel. Now that gas is so high it's becoming the cheapest as well. What is there to say about the cruise-






I came







I saw











I Conquered




















I felt pretty-oh so pretty-I felt pretty and witty and bright. All kidding aside(and references to West Side Story) I had a ball. I definitely recommend cruising as an all in one excursion. Where else can you get your lodging,food,and entertainment for $800 for a week? and remember what happens on the cruise stays on the cruise(unless you're the kiss and tell type)

Hey guys,

I'm off for some fun in the sun(hopefully-no whammy's!!) . I'll be visiting the bahamas and St. Thomas(maybe I'll find my own patron saint-how cool is that),St. Marten(french speaking provence oui.parle vou france?). I'll be gone for a week so I won't be posting(unless I meet a really hot millionare with a laptop....Just kidding...about the laptop). So until we meet again sit back and relax(and light and old gold)(old radio reference). I'll be back before you know it.

What is a Friend?

Hey guys,

I recently talked to one of my best friends in the whole world. We talked about education,Welfare,building bridges out of poverty,wanting an intelligent man,my going back school,etc. She lives far from me so I don't get to see her like I used to. We are far apart geographically but close emotionally. She's still by sounding board and the person who keeps me from flying off the handle. I realize that it's hard to come by friends who will stand in your corner and truly have your best interest in mind. We've been friends for well over 10 years and We've had so many adventures. I'd tell you about them but then I'd have to kill you. So if you have someone who:

encourages you
stands by you
motivates you
cry with you
laughs with you

Tell them how wonderful it is to be friends with them. Ms. E, I'm glad you're my friend. Thanks for the pep talk and the laughter over the past decade.
