How's every doing? Anything you want to vent about this week?

.

*does anyone else wan to be tagged in this?

GTKY: I'm going to steal my gtky from the BF board.  What is your favorite place you've traveled to?  What is the number one place you want to travel to?  Will you would you take your LO(s)?

I'm going to vent about lent (what an awesome rhyme). I hate this time of year. How the hell is giving up soda, chocolate, wine, facebook or whatever proving anything. Seriously this irritates me every year.

GTKY: Of the places we've been (foreign and domestic) the Grand Canyon was my favorite. Number one on my bucket list is seeing the Amazon Rainforest in Peru and Brazil. I don't know if we'll take DD. If we do we'll wait until she's older and can enjoy it with us.

I agree about lent being silly. I also find it funny that my adopted dad always gets healthy and loses weight during lent then doesn't keep the lifestyle change and gains it all back after lent. Why can't people just be good to themselves b/c they want to be good to themselves? It doesn't have to be about proving how much you love your imaginary friend.

GTKY: Favorite place I've been is Kauai, HI. Someday soon-ish, I want to go back just to do the entire Kalalau(sp?) trail. A strenuous 12 mile hike to a pristine beach. couple days on the beach, then hike the 12 miles back. After that of course we will spend a night or two in the nicest hotel room we can find.

As far as places I want to go, too hard to pick just one. I can narrow it down to Ireland or Italy. Unless we adopt, we will not have any little ones we can take. Can't leave the country with foster kids.
