9:29 pm	the winter holiday so all of you that are my friends that live in the utah vallley area. here is the schedule for my visit during my winter break: we will begin driving on the 15th and get there on the 16th. the night of the 16th we have a party with my mom's family. the night of the 17th we have a party with my dad's family. on the 19th we are having my bella's b-day party which i want to invite you all to if you want to come. we will be leaving either the night of the 19th or the morning of the 20th. so i want you all to figure out ways to see me during that time. on another note. there are two weirdnesses i need some outside opinions on: first the infamous ben has invited me for coffee with him on the morning of the 19th. it seems nice and at first i couldn't wait to see him. then i thought what the hell am i going to tell my husband. surely he would freak. and how do i not tell him? so i don't know. second i have a seriouse crush on a kindergarten teacher at my school. he is this hot little black guy with a metro sexual style going. i do reading buddies with him on thursday afternoons and i have always been a little giggly about him. on last saturday i went to dinner with some friends from school for one of the third grade teacher's b-days and my little crush was there. he like put his arms around me and sat across the table and chatted with me all night and ate half my cheesecake.... now he always touches me when i see him. like he'll put his hand on my knee when i am asking him if he wants us to come to reading buddies or he'll walk too close to me and his side will brush my side. dude. i love him. i am not trying to imply that he likes me. i think he is just like that with the random touching. but talk about za za zoooo. i haven't felt chills like that from a stranger in a long long time. yikes. what do i do???

9:03 pm	i'm high enough from all the waiting well.... we went and saw allison kraus(sp?) last night. she/they are something else. i have to admit that folksy bluegrass shit isn't always my cup of tea but she is amazing. and that guy on the dobro (spelled phonetically) is literally the best in the world. no i'm seriouse. anyways good time was had by all (by all i mean me, the ball and chain, and his ball and chain i.e his mom, dad and sis) well almost all. after the first song the man sitting in front of the dad asked him to stop tapping his toe which was met by a curt sarcastic biting reply from the mom. but the dad couldn't tap his foot (out of politeness and embareassment) for the whole of the hoe down. its a shame really.

1:01 pm	sigh Gay Rights Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands? - Ernest Gaines *** We would like to know who really believes in gay rights on LiveJournal.There is no bribe of a miracle or anything like that. If you truly believe in gay rights, then repost this and title the post as "Gay Rights". If you don't believe in gay rights, then just ignore this. Thanks (Comment on this)

4:45 pm	am i being a shelfish? so... what do you guys think about this: my husband, may god bless him, has been offered this opportunity through his school to travel with a load of students over the summer. if six kids go then he goes for free. sounds pretty sweet aye? it makes me want to tear his eyes out every time he talks about it. i recognize that this is an amazing chance for him to get to travel without all the expenses. i see that, i do. all i can think about is my husband trapsing around europe with a bunch of sexually charged sixteen and seventeen year old girls. is that a weird way to look at it? would any of you feel strange about that? of course any time i express my distaste he gets all defensive like i am accusing him of wanting to have an affair with a teenager or some bullshit. but lets be honest how many men wouldn't give their left nut to be alone with teenage girls? because i am me and my husband is mark every time i talk to him about this i end up feeling like the way i feel is silly. i should feel like this is the greatest thing that ever happened to him. but i guess that that is it.... it is the greatest thing that ever happened to HIM but what about me? am i being too selfish? i need a little perspective.

10:51 am	the lies so here is something that most of you utahns propably already heard but i think it is worth reading again: http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/090106L.shtml this is the speech that the mayor of salt lake gave when george W. was in your state. my favorite part is all of the stuff about having the ability as americans to stand up and speak out against our president if we have the inclination. let me know what you think.
