Well well well, it's been awhile. Let's see what's been goin on. hmmm Well last weekend I had ballgames on Friday and Saturday. Got rained on Saturday right at the end of the game. I don't have a clue if we won or not. Sunday Angelia and I went to the Frist Center to see the European Masterpieces. They were lovely. The Renoir they had was just fabulous. After that we went to Magical Journey and it was kinda cute there. Then we went to Out Loud which was fun because it was my first ever trip there. As we were leaving I saw those free newspaper things by the door and I got excited. Gay news. I don't get to see much of that down here. Yeah I know I'm *special*. Monday didn't do anything I don't think. Tuesday I had more ballgames to go to. They both lost and it was a bit nippy. Samantha got a real pretty hit though. Made it all the way home. Yay for my baby. Came home and got online talkin to some folks. Started watchin the news at 10 and heard about a Chapel Hill soldier that had been killed in Iraq and the name didn't sound familiar to me as they didn't pronounce it right. So I told Angelia about it and she informed me that it was this girl I grew up with's husband. So I went and woke my mom up to tell her because our families are rather close. Mom said she was gonna call Christy's aunt so as to not bother her mom. So she called her this morning and found out some details. The military told the family that he had been shot on the head and the news reports said he had been killed by a bomb that hit his convoy. Either way it's awful. I feel really really bad for Christy. she will be returning to TN from Hawaii this weekend so we will probably go see her and check on her. I hate that this happened. I hate that we are in a war that we don't need to be in. I'm glad my mom is out of the military in 2 weeks. Even though she said she isn't safe she can still be called back. Supposedly her unit is going to Iraq in September. Hopefully they won't call her back. So today has just been kinda lazy, kinda sad. It was a beautiful day though. Took the dogs out and walked around the property with Tut to try and get him familiar with his boundaries. He got scared of the horses in the field so he didn't go near them so I guess that's a good thing. Tomorrow shall probably be another lazy day. I don't have any ball games until Friday. So nothin to do until then. lol My life is sooooo boring. Anywho, I reckon that's all I got. I'm gonna go to bed here in a lil bit. bye*bye
