Yayayayay! I can't wait!

Going on my last senior trip this weekend and sponsoring my last graduation next. I'm going to be so ready to see all y'all!

We've got our "escape plans" on countdown, too, Arky...guests arrive tomorrow and by the end of the month, I will be so ready for a change...ha!

26399. arkymalarky - 5/5/2011 5:09:54 PM

Haha! I'm ready for y'all! Can't wait!

26400. judithathome - 5/5/2011 6:22:57 PM

Let me know if you want us to bring anything other than what we usually do...those lime cookies NEVER showed up on the shelves again, by the way. Ditto the chocolate straws you liked so much...alas.

26401. arkymalarky - 5/5/2011 8:29:46 PM

Oh well
Yourselves are plenty!

Speaking of airports: our summer guests are landing in less than an hour.

I can guarantee you there is not one speck of dirt anywhere in this house except in the flowerpots.

26405. arkymalarky - 5/6/2011 9:01:06 PM

Haha! Well y'all all know not to expect that at my house!

26406. arkymalarky - 5/6/2011 9:02:09 PM

I'm so ready for that weekend! But I know I'll have a good time on the senior trip this weekend.

I got in trouble at Six Flags yesterday, so I'm going to try to behave at the zoo today. My phone lost charge and I got separated from the others, partly because--okay mostly--I didn't stay where I said i'd be. So when I got to the meeting place at the agreed on time they'd been waiting an hour, so they said, and when I walked up they all yelled in unison "Where were you!!" So now even tho my phone is charged the kids have insisted we will all stay together at the zoo. What a bunch of killjoys.

On the way home from the last ever senior trip for my little school. So sad, but we have had such a fantastic time. My kids are the best in the world.

Well, Obama has managed to botch it all - again.

What the heck?!

When the news broke about Bin Laden's careful and excellent assassination, I thought to myself, "Wow, Obama *does* have a pair!"

And now his story keeps changing and the press is having a field day with the mistakes made and the bad PR.

Way to eff it up!

26411. Jenerator - 5/10/2011 4:14:26 PM

And why aren't any members of the press talking about his wife's age? I've heard reports that she is anywhere from 24-17 with a 12 year old daughter.

Do the math - Bin Laden liked child brides.

26412. arkymalarky - 5/10/2011 4:28:18 PM

Glad to know you stay on top of all that WND/Fox stuff. Family Radio is monitoring it, as well, so there's your media coverage. People who want to find a way to criticize Obama's handling of Bin Laden are wasting their time and making themselves look desperate. In a bar or an election, that's never a winning look.

26413. arkymalarky - 5/10/2011 4:29:42 PM

As far as obl, there's not a thing about him that would surprise me or wouldn't disgust me.

26414. Jenerator - 5/10/2011 5:01:31 PM

Arky,

Honestly, I haven't tuned in to any talking heads, I am just reading various online newspapers.

One day there is elation that Bin Laden is dead and the raid executed superbly. The next, we are changing our story and essentially apologizing. We have gone from legitimacy to doubt.

Obama's team should have had their facts straight before they started leaking them to the press.

---------------

As for the discussion regarding Amal's age - WHERE is this national discussion? I haven't seen it!

26415. Jenerator - 5/10/2011 5:06:20 PM

I was excited when I watched Obama's address! While my family members turned up their noses and credited Bush, *I* was excited for him (and everyone involved). When the picture was released that initially claimed to show Obama and his team watching Bin Laden's execution, I thought that Obama was tougher than I thought.

Then Obama's team had to correct that assertion, and it *wasn't* of him watching that moment, no one's really sure.

President, just own it. Your team of bad-ass Navy Seals killed the most infamous terrorist of our time. Yes you watched it, yes you ordered it, yes it was his child bride that was shot in the leg. Yes you authorized killing his family members and acquaintances inside. Yes you had him buried at sea because he doesn't deserve a shrine.

OWN IT!
