Metamorphosis

I'm back from Houston! What an awesome city. I really love it there. The weather was phenomenal, the people are so much fun and the food is fantastic. And I got to go to the Astros game on Sunday night. Definately the highlight of my trip. I've been a baseball fan since I was about 5 years old and that was my first MLB game ever. It was so exciting. I felt like a little kid on Christmas morning. I took over 200 pictures. I was such a tourist, but I didn't care. But I'm happy to be home. I missed my girl. She was so happy to see me when I got home, it was awesome. I bought her a cute little charm bracelet in Houston and gave it to her when I got back. She doesn't like any of her friends to touch it because "my mommy bought it special for me from Texas." So cute.

I did hear a lot of political discussions while I was down there. It's a hot topic, for obvious reasons. It's pretty interesting to hear what American citizens have to say aobut the war and their President. The media is always influential, but their patriotism really stands out when discussing anything even remotely political. All I have to say is that my thoughts and prayers are with all the troops stationed overseas. God speed and come home safe.

Tonight, I'm going with Tara, Dave (my brother in law) and my best friend, Christine to go see Elton John. I managed to score tickets from a supplier of mine because tickets sold out in less than 3 minutes. Crazy. But I'm so excited. I've never really been a huge Elton John fan, but I can't deny that his music is very powerful. It should be a once in a lifetime concert.

And then I'm looking forward to doing nothing for the rest of the weekend. I'm going to make a trip to Blockbuster sometime tomorrow and I think that Cassidy and I are going to chill in front of the TV together. We take all the blankets and pillows in the house and set them up in the living room and watch movies all day. She's fun to hang out with because she's got an opinion on everything. I love watching the way the mind of a six year old works. Cracks me up.

I just want to say hey to my friend, Leah. Your personal metamorphosis has really been an inspiration to me. Keep fighting the good fight! Resisting temptation only makes you stronger and wiser.

That's it for today. Have a great weekend, everyone!
