Upon returning home from Africa my email was bombed with news of Prop 8 passing in California. The following is a reporter expressing publicly what I felt on hearing and reading all the news articles.
You dont have to watch it but his voice is powerful in what he says.
Im creating this blog so that my family and friends may keep track of where in the world I am. Try keeping up, I tend to move around quite a bit.

I'm all traveled out!
I know for most of you reading that title, you never thought you would hear me say it. Well its true.. I've been away from home eight days now and traveled halfway around the world and back again. Short hops are all great and wonderful but it was a 24 hour trip there and about 18 coming back and now I'm looking at another 4 hours back home today. My bed is looking like a heaven on earth when I get in tonight..
See y'all soon!
See y'all soon!

Civic duty and land speed records
So most of you know that I'm off on one of my adventures again.
My flight this morning is at 825am. I'm currently sitting in that seat now. HOWEVER I felt I needed to fullfill that ever important civic duty and vote. I wasn't sure if the polls would be open. With high hopes I swung by the library and found doors open. I was 10th in line and the pols opening at 7. I was thinking I just might make it!! THEN they told me that I had to go over to the rec center. The line had already formed and I was like 15 in line. A shout out to Dave Baird who let me swap him spaces and bump to first in line. I was able to cast my vote and let my voice be heard AND catch my flight to JFK, of course not with out doing some safe and speedy driving..
I don't know what it is lately but things have a way of working out.
For this trip, I was bumped into an earlier training class, someone asked Me for the swap instead of me having to search it out. The days off were granted without hesitation.. I was able to vote and make my flights. I hope I'm not jinxing myself here. I just have to give thanks to the universe out there..
Peace out

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Why is it so fun to dress up and just let go? I sure don't know but I know I love to do it. This year I made it to the Hal-Ho-Ween party that one of my coworkers threw and then I got to go out on Halloween night with my friends. The party was a little wild and crazy so I won't show off anything too risque, apparently those Delta folk really like to let their hair down. For my costume I got a jumbo bag of skittles and glued them in rainbows all over a blue shirt and blue pants. I invited all to come and taste my rainbow.
I ended up winning the award for most creative costume. NICE!
As for work I resurrected the kilt mom made for me in high school and sported that around the airport.
Love all the pictures I've seen of the family. You guys did awesome this year.
I'm off to Africa on Tuesday for Amy's birthday, I'll be back in a week. Love you all.
