Birthdays, America and running naked in the house....

See...I told you there was more to come and here it is. First off let me answer some questions..

The house hunting is slow...but then again we are not really pushing real hard seeing as though the holidays are fast approaching and unless someone wants to buy a home for Christmas I think we are SOL until January. Plus the house we liked and was on the market for over a year was sold last week. CRAP! that's OK though cause we are looking for homes that have a basement and that particular one did not. The yard and location is what sold us.

Thanks for the Happy B day texts, emails and calls. I didn't realize I was liked by anyone...especially that many people. It was a great Birthday actually. I woke up early, Played some Xbox...grabbed some breakfast..played some more Xbox..then meet up with my family for Lunch. Minna and I later saw "Eagle Eye". It was a good show in my opinion. After we had Dinner then YEP YOU GUESSED IT...Ghost Hunters!! We watched it till the end and although we missed a few hours of it we saw some really cool stuff happen. We saw someones coat get pulled and heard some voices etc. I know, we are crazy but Minna and I really enjoy watching this show. Oh and thank you everyone for not calling me during that time period...however I would of answered still.

As you know a new president has been elected..and to be honest the man I was voting for did not win. I am not one of those people who will bag on the new president of the United States because I am not a Democratic Voter, however I will say this- Black, White Woman or Man I support the President of the United States of America. In other words, i am not one who discriminates. Although I am Republican head to toe and will not change I do support Barack Obama as our President of the United States of America. I am looking forward to the next four years, although I am afraid for our country with a few view points he wants to change for us. Time will tell, all I can say is...If he proves as a worthy man and can stand for our freedom as President Bush and others before him have I will support Obama. But...it doesn't mean I have to like him or his decisions. I personally feel that in four years a few Obama voters will say ..oops... like I said, time will tell.

On the happy note we have a new president elect and that is good. I will just make sure not to make a lot of money so I don't have to give it to some lazy ass person who thinks their contribution to society is based on my wages and income.

As I was getting dressed this morning I realized...I really like to walk naked through my house. It is a great sensation. Walking around..no one can see you but yet you feel like your accomplishing something daring by doing it. I don't know...sometimes I don't need a reason to strip to my bare nothingness and walk around my home...I just enjoy it...however It really is to get a reaction from Minna. Her reaction is usually....EWWWW !!! Stop that.... with that said, I encourage everyone to walk around naked in their own home at least 3 - 4 times a week. It's just flat out fun!!

I fully believe in supporting your president no matter what party lines you may fall. Even if you haven't been happy in the past (Bush) and/or are scared of the future (Obama).

I wouldn't worry about your taxes. Bush's plan is supposed to be in effect until 2011 and supposedly if you don't make more that $250,000 a year (I could only dream of making that much) they should remain safe. Anyway, our taxes are already contributing to a lot of lazy asses no matter who is president. You can't do much about that :(

Nakedness can be very liberating!

Your political passion cracks me up! I am predicting the same result in 4 years as you. I think it will be a huge surprise to all of the Obama supporters when he gets into office and they realize that he was alot of charismatic talk with no plans to back it up - we'll see. Luckily, Seth is in school for most of the next 4 years, so we definitely won't be contributing anything to the lazy bums who don't want to work. Maybe we could be the lazy bums! Glad you had a Happy Birthday!
