SeaWorld @ Night

Before I start lemme apologize for these awful pictures, (I wonder if
the Sidekick II takes better pictures than the LS?) my camera's battery
ran dead so I only had my phone. But it was awesome. Energetic, tons of
kids, place was packed. I recommend for everyone to check it out. The
only disappointing thing (for me) was leaving with a sense of sadness
for the whales who were taken from the wild and brought there. I'm
surprised they haven't had more attacks from those whales. A large,
wild, beautiful killer like that could never truly be content living in
a pool after its had a taste of freedom. And now its too late to return
them to the wild... ... ... I wonder why there is not an international
law forbidding the capture of any whale for any purpose other than
rescue. If they breed them in captivity that's one thing, but most of
them were not. Most of them were purchased from Orca Hunters. Shame
Shame... But... ... the show was nice =P

RIP Marvin Joshua Hodges

Friday I found out that one of my oldest and closest friends died. He
was only 25. He was one of the best people I have ever know. His heart
was close to God, and was the type of man who would do anything for
anyone. They say the good die young... but its just not fair. I'm doing
okay... but just trying to figure out why God would let him die. He just
graduated, wanted to be a pastor... he had so much more to do. He would
have touched so many more lives... he was the best of us...

Rest In Peace My Friend... I will see you again in paradise. I love you.
Have always loved you. You will be missed.

Almost An Auntie

Last weekend I went to visit my sister in Vegas. She is about to have
her first baby any day =] I know I have other nieces and nephews, but
none from siblings that I actually grew up with. So this feels like I am
going to be an Aunt for the first time! I am SO used to being the one in
the hospital having the baby while everyone else gets to "enjoy" the
outcome. Lol, how refreshing to finally be on the other side. I'm gonna
try to get out there next weekend too. Hopefully she will hv her baby
then. The plan is to take Christian to Circus, Circus... if that goes
down, I will definitely post pictures and a longer blog. MUAH!!

The Charger Game

Chargers Vs. Seahawks, my first live football game. I know, its not that
I'm not a true fan (trust me I am) but I'm just cheap as all hell. My
friend had to actually put his uniform on and do flag detail to get
these tickets for free. Lol, and he doesn't even like the Chargers.
Sweet, I know. What would I do w/out my friends? =] Anyway, the Chargers
lost. And although my friends said they hv never seen me so upset, I
actually had an awesome time! Will definitely be going more often!
