Guess what!?
I gave my notice in the office today!
I'm moving back to the good old U. S. of A!!!!!
Crazy happy dance, crazy happy dance!
I am going to be so busy because our lease here is up on Sept 30 and I have to organize an international move in just 5 weeks.
But I don't care because I'M GOING HOME!!!
I'm...shankin my ass, shakin my ass, shakin my ass!
America watch out I'ma comin home!
This is a venue where I can make observations, comments, and possibly vent my opinion on my life, the country in which I live, America, and possibly politics.

Sexual Servitude versus Jail
Really?!
Really.
How desperate would you have to be to prefer this:
Over jail (see article here)?
Not me I can tell you. Of course I've never been to jail - but I can't imagine agreeing to become this man's sex and house cleaning slave to get myself out of jail.
I mean - what exactly happened during her 12 day jail stay that made him seem like the better choice?!
And are the police looking into that? You'd think they would want to make sure something horrendous didn't happen in jail.
I'm not even a police officer and I want to know what could make that "man" a better choice.

Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy!
I'm very happy right now.
I'll tell you more tomorrow!
But I can tell you this I am sooooo HAPPY!
And I'm having some Ben Nevis!
Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy!

I can't believe I use to be so small!
I'm going through my clothes - ones that I've had in my cedar chest for the past 5+ years.
Do you know that I use to wear a petite small in my dress shirts?
That I'm looking at a size five sun dress that I use to wear all the time?! Yes the sun dress I use to wear when I was 28 - but still...
I am getting rid of all my size 8 suits that I use to wear in Houston. Not only do they not fit - they're out of style. About 7 - 9 years out of style. So even if I lost my voluptuous curves - I still wouldn't wear them.
So out the door they go.
Who knows what else I'll find - considering that I haven't shifted through these things since London. I don't think I even looked at this stuff when we moved from London to Dubai - I think the last time I actually looked at this stuff was when we moved to London.
Like in Feb / March 2005.
Treasures to uncover....

Lady Gaga - Alejandro
Have you seen this video?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niqrrmev4mA
When I first saw it I thought Lady Gaga was making fun of video ho's by having man ho's in her video.
Then my husband looked it up on Google and he saw this: http://vigilantcitizen.com/?p=3979
Which is very interesting - a lot of conjecture about the illuminati, God, and homosexual undertones.
I looked it up and got this: http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1641136/20100609/lady_gaga.jhtml
Apparently the director was thinking about a woman's lost love.
Interesting how people assign their own weird meanings to things.
When I was at University I took an English class, the teacher had us read Cinderella and then wanted us to write about the feminist undertones of the story. How it highlighted the oppression of women.
I wrote that there were no feminist undertones to the story, that people just assigned their own meanings to it, ones the author never intended. I wrote that Cinderella was just a story written by some guy trying to shut his kids up, put them to bed, and teach them a lesson at the same time. The moral of Cinderella - be nice to people or it just may bite you in the ass, aka what goes around comes around.
The teacher was a bit pissed at me at going "off topic" but at least she gave me a C instead of an F.

Blackberry usage
Can I whip my husband?
In Saudi a man whipped his wife because she was spending too much time on her blackberry and wasn't paying enough attention to him.
http://gulfnews.com/news/gulf/saudi-arabia/saudi-man-whips-wife-for-overusing-blackberry-1.670146
I don't agree with this, at all. But I can understand it, the blackberry is an addiction.
It's Satan's tool.
Get thee away from me!
In other news...Mickey Mouse must DIE!

Productivity
Can you believe it - I was actually a bit productive this weekend.
I cooked food for the first part of the week.
I sorted through some boxes and tossed out a lot of stuff!
But, I didn't do an inventory of what needs to be insured.
My goal tonight is to start sorting through my clothes. I have way too many that I don't wear.
Well actually, can't wear.
It's the F.A.T.
My bootie is too big for a lot of my clothes.
I have a hard time letting go. Especially when I really like something.
I keep thinking - I just need to loose xx pounds. Then It'll fit.
I don't think those size 4's are going to ever fit again.
EVER.
So it should be safe to let them go, hmmmm?
