Does this make me a bad person?

As I'm sure most of you saw on the news, Sen. Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with a malignant glioma this weekend.

Why am I writing about this, you ask? Well, I could generally care less about day-to-day politics since nothing ever happens anyways. They talk a lot and put off voting, call it an early afternoon and go golfing. But in a twisted way, this is actually kind of exciting.

Unless your name is Jennifer, you probably have noooooo idea what the whole glioma thing means. To be blunt, Ted is a dead man. But he's 76 so I think its not all that tragic. Anyways...

This diagnosis obviously sucks for Ted but its freaking awesome for gliomas! Two days ago, most people would have been like "huh?! glio-what?" But now that's all we get to learn about on the news. The equals awareness, baby! Which, in turn, generally leads to money and research. Oh yeah.

Also, Ted's got deep pockets, both privately and with all the money he and his buddies in Washington control. Thats gotta be good for something, right?

Now THAT was the most amazing week of my life!

Well, we're home. I'm rather depressed about that but very anxiously awaiting the arrival of my hundred and some pictures.

Before I left, I was obviously planning on writing a huuuuge post about all the fun stuff we did and saw and what not, but I don't think anything I write will do it justice. I'll leave it at this: I had so much fun, everything was so beautiful and warm, but the best part was definitely sharing it all with Duane -blushy- I couldn't think of a better person to share my vacation with.... and he took me to see Mickey!

Picture Time!

With our lovely boat.

Beautiful Sunset!

End of a Perfect Night.

Where Dreams Come True!

Bon Voyage...FINALLY!!!

Its kind of early to be up on a Saturday morning, but I'm WAAAAAY too excited to sleep any longer! In a few hours, Duane and his mommy will be here to pick me up and head to the airport.

Thankfully, the severe weather that was predicted for this afternoon seems to have gone away and now there are only spotty showers. Thank goodness! We only have half an hour between flights, so there's definitely not time to spare for rain delays.

I couldn't be more excited!
