Yes! I'm back. Some highlights and lowlights? Okay.

It rained. It rained Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. This is good if you're home and curled up in bed with a cup of hot tea and a good movie. Heck, it's even good if you're curled up with a bad movie. It becomes somewhat damp and miserable when you're walking through Disneyland with a backpack and two kids. It's also not so fun when your shoes begin to squelch. However, the complete lack of people pretty much makes up for the miserableness. Is that a word?

It rained. It rained on Tuesday. This was the day we set aside for Knott's Berry Farm. My grandma was with us. She gets a little vocal with her complaints. Plus, Heather and I decided it would be fun (read as -- "hilarious") to go on the Perilious Plunge. This is the water ride that drops you straight down and a virtual wall of water hits you in the face. Yes, it was fun. It was also extremely wet. Oh, and Heather and I were the only ones on the ride. THE ONLY ONES. Two people on a boat that can hold 20 or so. We got wet. Then it started to pour. This was probably not our finest hour. I will admit that it was extremely fun, though.

Rain on Wednesday. Also, the Tower of Terror. Hee. Tower of Terror. Cole went on that with me. He didn't like it. I did. Still, he was brave enough to try it once. What a sweet potato.

No rain on Thursday. Yippee!

Friday -- No rain and lots of people. Blah. I think we only stayed at Disneyland about 2 hours that day.

Just a little FYI for all of yous ... Heather and I spent over $60 at the confectionary store in Downtown Disney. That's $60 on such delightful delights as fudge, rice crispy treats, lollipops and carmel apples. I can't believe we did that. Seriously.

More tomorrow. I have to remember to tell the wonderful story of Best Buy and Xena season 5.

Welcome back Kelly. I'm glad you guys had a good time despite the rain. It's raining right now but it's ok because I'm in my sweats in my home. :)

wow, i didn't even make the highlight journal? what about how i overcame my aversion to water rides and rode splash mountain, TWICE. once whilst it was raining. and how i, um, overcame my aversion to spending money and bought a $10 lunch? yes, i made great strides when i was down there.

p.s. people love the sweatshirt

so i'm walking in to work and there is this guy standing out there with a clipboard. not unusual. there are several people out there all the time asking for donations or for my vote for kerry or whatever. this doesn't normally bother me, but when i walk in and out of the same door 10 times a day, and they ask me everytime, i get annoyed. the other day i was so mad i told the guy 'look, if i gave you money everytime i walked through this door, i would be one of those needy people you're collecting money for.' he was not ammused. my comeback today was not so clever. the guy said 'can i ask you some questions for my government class?' to which i replied, 'i work for wells fargo' he looked confused, i looked bitchy. i could of done better.
