note: CT, I bumped up your bandwidth gal, you should be ok now
I talked to my kids last night...while they were a bit disapointed, they, (expecially my oldest) was more excited about possibly finding a 4 wheeler for him...
we came up with an alternate plan, of going down there durring their fall break (when I don't have to compete with 4 wheelers and camping trips) to see them.
:banana
life is just not fair.
why does it seem, when you're able to do something, when you PLAN to do something, then plans change, perhaps due to other people involved plans changing, or for other reasons.
so you rework your plans, postpone them...then something happens and there is no way that you can see that the plans can be carried out.
:wtf is she talking about? I'm sure you all are saying right about now...
allow me to explain...and yes, this is more detail than I usually go into on my blog...but I'm tired of all the bullshit
:trumpet
yes, updates have finally been posted at the wedding blog, and the photo blog has some pictures up of the big day :group_smile
this has been a rather stressful week...so this is all the post you're getting here! :chtounge
I think my Ex seriously needs to read this!!
My wedding day...
things are almost finalized, and soon we'll be on our way over to my future mother-in-laws house.
I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their well wishes, support, and everything else during all of this.
I know several of you will be here in spirit, even though you won't be here in person.
I love you all!!

With my upcoming ceremony, you can figure out for yourself why this would be on my mind...
This last week, not one, but TWO countries legalized gay marriage :scared
I know, whatever were they thinking???
How dare they have the nerve to let all of their citizens have equal rights!!!
Yes, I'm being sarcastic...but it did make me think....isn't America supposed to be the 'world leader'? or does that only count when we're invading other countries? or talking about the size of our 'weapons'? Because I'm sad to say, lately, it certainly hasn't been in any other area.
Reading these almost brought tears to my eyes...This one, was made by the Prime Minister of Spain
Gay Marriage Speech
And this one...I want to change the word "Canadian" to American and send it to every Right Wing Religious Zealot out there!!
Gay Population finally gets some fair treatment
I watched a program on Showtime the other night, called "Same Sex America", there was a member of congress (I believe) that said no one could tell him or give one example how denying gay's marriage rights was a civil rights violation :confused11
No, I didn't break my TV, but I did wonder when he would pull his head out of his ass and gain a little common sense.
How can you call, denying an entire group of people, who make up at least 10% of the population (if not more) the same rights and privileges of everyone else, anything BUT a civil rights issue???
This article in Newsweek sums up what I feel so beautifully. Equal rights are not 'special' rights, that's all we're asking for.
One final thought, with Pride month just coming to a close, and tomorrow being the day we celebrate our countries freedom, don't you think it's time we offered those same 'freedom's' to everyone??
36 years this fight has been going on :shakehead
I can't help but think, if people would just come to the realization that we're really not all that 'different' things would change.
Imagine a day when you wouldn't have to worry about how to "explain" it, you could just accept it for what it is. Two people, who care about each other, spending time together, wanting to spend their lives together...how is that any different than any straight couple out there?
