I’ve decided it’s time to start counting down to my next cruise, which is just six short months away. I’ll be sailing on the Disney magic for the 10/17/09 Western Caribbean cruise. My husband and I will be traveling along with my dad & Sue, and our friends Jenn & Nick. Three category 9 staterooms…
Only in West Haven…
I tripped across this piece of news regarding a woman whose house has been hit by cars THREE TIMES and is having trouble getting the town to help her. Enjoy! http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/news_wtnh_west_haven_dangerous_intersection_200812301755
Facebook is Awesome!
I just started using Facebook, and I’m totally in love with it. I spent hours last night looking up people that I may or may not want to talk to, but am nosy about anyway. It’s so much cooler than Classmates.com, and it’s free! What’s really horrifying is that I managed to find the guy…

Inauguration Day
I’ve just finished watching the swearing in of Barack Obama, and might I just say his speech was fabulous! I especially liked the part where he mentioned that we would no longer choose between safety and ideals, clearly referring to Guantanamo.

2009 Mohegan Sun Winefest
I hope this finds everyone well. I’ve just come back from this year’s annual Winefest, and have lots to tell.

It’s snowing. Again.
I’m officially tired of snow for this year. It’s pretty, and I like it the first couple of times it falls, but I’m over my limit. Tomorrow I leave for my fabulous Mohegan Sun Winefest weekend, and I’m sure to have a lengthy update for everyone when I get back on Sunday. Stay warm!
