Friday Tidbits

• I can't believe that Michael Jackson died! I loved him (including owning my own giant Michael pin when I was younger). So sad. I feel bad for his kids who seem to think of him as a dad and a best friend. So sad. My favorite song is Billy Jean and Man in the Mirror I think. It's hard to pick just one.
  

• I just started watching True Blood. I am about half way through the first episode but I can already tell I'm going to love it. I was worried I would hate it after how much I loved the Twilight series, but I think that feeling has passed. I was also waiting to watch it so I could read the series first, but if you've been reading this blog a while, you know that I've decided that I hate seeing a movie after I read the book. So I had no excuse and I'm so happy that I moved passed my issues.
  

• What's with all the stupid politicians? These govenors and senators (ahem Illinois, New York, South Carolina, etc) are really giving that position a bad rap. They are pretty dumb to think that they won't get caught doing all this crap. 

• Still sad about Michael Jackson.
  

• It's has been beautiful weather here this week! This may be the first time I'm actually not bitching about the weather on this blog. I hope it continues for the next couple of months. I've been trying to take the dog on some long walks at night and staying outside as much as I can while it is nice. I love this time of year!
  

• GK has two free nights at a hotel that we have to use by September. Anyone have any ideas of a good place to go? I was thinking maybe New York or Vancouver, but any ideas of places you think we're missing out on would be awesome to hear!
