My cousin Eric had a baby on Sunday at 6:46pm. Eric is one of my closest cousins we are only 11 months apart and grew up together. So this is very exciting to have a new little one around.
Welcome to the world little man!

An era is gone....
The baby era is gone :( and we are very sad!!!
So tuesday my closest friend Julie had a hystrectomy. We have know each other since we were 13 we are practically family and look like sisters. Even in the hospital people asked if we were sisters, silly how we pick friends that look like us. So for her its the end of the baby era. She's sad and so am I, who is suppose to have that kind of surgery at 30, especially the day after your birthday. Its funny right before she went in she begged me to have one also but I had to remind her that one of us had to be able to have a baby. She came back with this hospital is full of smart men and doctors at that so go find a future baby. That's Julie for you always thinking ahead. Well today she begged me to take away her pain. Who wants to see their friend in pain?! I sure as hell don't. I called the nurse, got here juice, sat and read while she slept and laughed while she talked in her sleep.
She eventually came too and I got her up and moving a bit. I fought with the mean nurse that wouldn't listen and demanded to talk with someone else, who fixed the problem. I did tell her she owes me big time..especially after she had me put her belly button ring back in, helped her to the bathroom and rubbed her legs cause she itched so bad. I sat with her while her husband worked so that she was never alone, its like we are doing shifts. He is doing the 8pm to 5am I'm doing the opposite. But that's what friends are for right...she is the one I would and could get it trouble with..but we would do anything for each other. Sometimes friends really are better then family because her family was not there!

Dating in the real world...
SUCKS....
So I went on a date last Tuesday, we went to the movies had fun, thought we got along pretty well but wasn't really looking for the "one". Well at the end of the date I got a hand shake..yep! Not like I wanted a hug or anything but who shakes hands...I have the worst luck with meeting and dating guys I need to find a nice guy who is not afraid of a strong personality. All of you know me and my personality...I'm such a taurus. Oh and the best part of this whole mess was he sent me an email saying "I'm not interested and I need to find someone I can be serious with". Go figure, maybe I want to just be friends....wow guys can be so self centered and dumb!!!!
Anyone know a nice single guy that I can meet?
Stay tune for more dating horror stories because I have a bunch.... Sooo many I could write a book or atleast a blog.

The Change
Here are the changes!!!
Barrack Obama-is the president elect
Proposition 8-passed with yes vote which means that the state of California will only recognize marriage between a man and a women.(It looks like the governor and a few Congress men are trying to say that the vote is still unconstitutional and will try to overturn it) (tons of people are picketing and church are being vandalized because of prop 8)

In the words of MTV!!!!
ROCK THE VOTE!!!
Despite whether you vote for McCain or Obama or yes or no on propositions...please just have a voice. Too many people have died for our right and honor to vote.

A change is a coming!!!!
So we as a nation and state are on the eve of some great changes. Either way we look at it we will have some first a first African American President or a women Vice President. Both are a change, both stand for change, both will bring great change. They both can either bring this nation to our feet or to our knees.
But I digress, the hate I'm talking about is Prop 8. So I believe in god,I believe in the bible, a marriage should be between a man and woman but how do we discriminate against a whole group of people. How do we tell people that they can't celebrate their love with some kind of union. I guess I'm just upset because I have family and friends that are gay so my vote feels confused. Voting no on this issue goes against my moral views on marriage and family. But voting yes discriminates against a whole group who deserves to be treated equal.
Oh there is a change coming and I'm scared..I hope we as a country and state know what we are doing!
