Still Hope for Mitt

My dad was in NH at the Romney headquarters yesterday for the primary elections (he was actually on CNN in the background a few times.) Although Romney didn't win, the race is far from over. I still have much faith in the intelligence of our nation to elect Mitt. Here is what my dad said:

"As you know, I am in Boston right now, listening to Mitt Romney speak. We are still very encouraged and energized! Points to Remember:

Mitt has more votes than any other republican candidate.

Mitt has more delegates than any other republican candidate.

Mitt closed the gap in the polls in New Hampshire from a double digit lead by McCain to a 5 point lead.

Mitt is moving on to Michigan right now to continue the fight.

Mitt needs our help with funds. I'll talk to you soon. Thanks, David"

Alias...the ultimate dud.

About two and a half months ago Tanya and John (Jonya) enlightened Carly and me with the hit t.v. series Alias. Oh how we loved watching episode after episode, sometimes staying up until Carly had to literally punch me to get me to go to bed. Every season seamed to grip us even more than the previous. We soon arrived at the final leg, the fifth season. Each episode in the fifth season built our hopes of a fantastic, satisfaction-filled end. We were loving it. Today, we were extremely excited, we had reached the ultimate Alias day...the finale. Despite a little confusion and anger with the way in which the writers went about something (Vaughn in season 5) we were like Vannie, Harrison, and Tike on Christmas eve...anxious to see what J.J. Abrams was bringing to the table.

We watched it. It sucked. It was an ultimate dud. The ending (I won't ruin it for those of you who haven't been disappointed yet, I'll let the show do it for you) was dissasatifying, anti-climactic, non-justifying, and crud. I am so ticked right now I wish I could boycott Alias but no, it's over, forever.

We're turning back to Lost with season 4 coming out shortly. Hopefully Abrams will repent.

Bella Donna

Our beloved Bella Donna passed away last week.

I am taken back to the night we brought Bella home. I was only 10. We still lived in our old house; the ground was full of snow. She was as precious as could be. I remember her silky, red skin that I could stretch and wrap around her little body. I remember letting her out in the backyard. She hopped around in the piles of deep powder snow and pointed at birds in the distance. She grew on us all that night.

She will be missed.
