Nada

Hey there. Not much to say I guess. Over the weekend Ivan went to California to see family so it was a pretty quiet weekend, not that my weekends are overly exciting anyway! Friday night I didn't do anything, got to sleep pretty early actually. Saturday morning Jeff made omelets and we drank screwdrivers...so I was kinda drunk by 9:30 in the morning! Jeff's a bad influence, as far as drinking goes, in my opinion! But I was able to then take a long nap, which was nice because I didn't sleep very well the night before. So that night me, Jeff & the kids went to the roller derby. I've been wanting to go for awhile now just because I thought it would be fun to see...and who knows maybe one day I will be out there on skates knocking women over! It was fun. I think I'm going to go again next month so Ivan can see it too. Other than that not much went on, except I rented Blood Diamond. Takes place in Africa-- Sierra Leone, Guinea, and South Africa. It's a really good movie, and Leonardo Dicaprio does a really good job in it. And it's so crazy to think that that stuff really happens. Villages get burned down, people get shot, and little kids get recruited to be child soldiers. In this movie there were kids that looked like 6years old shooting machine guns. That stuff really happens. They brainwash them. It's crazy. Jeff thinks I'm going to see some crazy stuff when I'm there. I keep telling him I will be in Cape Town, a huge modern tourist city, so it won't be like that!! Although I do realize it will be quite an experience to be with the kids and see/hear what conditions they came from...

Speaking of, I'm so excited. 43 days I think...! I'm going to get all my immunizations on Friday so then I'll be even more ready to go. YAY!
