Disneyland!

That is where I am headed in a mere 3 weeks!  Shaundra decided that it was time for Justin’s first trip to Disneyland and I think that is well worth a trek across the country for 4 days.  🙂  Besides…I haven’t been there in 7 years myself!  So I’m flying jetBlue in and out of Long Beach, CA and will be staying all by my lonesome in La Palma on the 24th.  Anyone live in the area that feels like showing a girl around?  I’m sure I’ll do a bit of walking but I’ll probably just hole up in my hotel room with my king sized bed(I splurged) and get plenty of rest as I’m sure I will need it chasing Justin around.  I’m so excited!  😀

Other than that not much is going on.  I should be in bed zzzzing but I’ll get to that later.  I kind of wanted to ask for tonight off but Tim beat me to it so I’m stuck going into work tonight!  Boo hiss.  It’s really not that bad I have just had a long week and am just feeling down and out.  It’s colorful week for my bc pills so that could be why I am feeling this way…  Boo hormones.

La la la.

The other night at work one of my co-workers told me he was going to be leaving in a month to go back to Iraq for the 4th time for a whole year.  His wedding date is set in the next month and he’s got a baby due in a few months…  I feel so bad!  He is ex-ARMY(10 years) turned National Guard.  I always thought National Guard never actually WENT anywhere.  So I asked him that and he said "they don’t."  And here we are sending them out to Iraq for Bush’s fucking troop surge?  Pardon my liberal ways and politcal opinion here, kids.  He seems to be okay with it, he said he will be getting paid a lot of money but does that really compensate for missing your first year of marriage and a good portion of the first year of your babies life?  Does it compensate for all of those men and women over there right now missing out on their kids’ and families’ lives?  I don’t think so.  I just want all of this bullshit to be done and over with and to get our people home where they belong.  We need to stop sticking our noses in other countries businesses when we are clearly not doing any good.  My co-worker has told me some very fascinating things that the media tends to neglect to report as to what really goes on over there.  I dunno.

I guess that is all, Matt is sitting behind me and I should cuddle with him before I scoot off to bed.  Later taters!
