So if anyone really knows me, they know that California is part of my soul. The same with New Orleans, even though I think NOLA has taken over my heart.
With that said, it is weird that I have made a desicion to not go to California this year with everyone.
I was going to, but then life has taken over, and I don't think it is in the cards for me. A) we are still waiting on immigration paperwork, so basically if I go, I may not be able to come home again for a bit, which sucks, cause I can't even go to visit my family. B) I really don't want to leave my family, even for a few days. In all reality, they rock, and they are my rocks, C) Some of my favorite people to hang out with, i.e. Trevor, and Nikki, won't be there.
Not that I don't love most of everyone who is going, but there are cliques there, and that kinda sucks.
And then there is D) LOST ate my life. Yeah, I am not going to put myself in the position of wanting to actually buy this book, so I can stand in front of the author(s) and rip it up. Not really worth it. My feelings on that subject are still the same as they were last year. I had tried to come to terms with it, and believe that I could deal with it, but really, I have this stinking suspicion that it would get brought up and I would be put in a position of not enjoying my time with everyone.
When this person tried to make me feel petty for my being upset for using my picture and story without my conscent, yeah well, whatever. I am still waiting for a reall apology for that one. I would share the email they sent, but as of now I guess I deleted it. Oh well, I hope they have a fun time.
No matter what it will always be something I feel strongly about.
So with that said, maybe next year I will head out there for some nice beach time, down in Venice. Gotta love that place.
So that is about all for now. we'll see if anything else comes up today.
I am bummed that you are not going to make it this year so when you come to Venice the next year you better bring the WHOLE beautiful family and we can have a play date!!! Or I will kick your ass.
ReplyDeleteI live in the damn state of LW and I am not even staying up there this time. I am going Sat night just because I am in town but I will not be doing alot of the other stuff.
It doesn't feel the same anymore.It just doesn't it is all so strange and I agree about the cliques I feel like I am back in high school when I go to these things and shit alot of the people are older than my 34 years and that is disturbing that they act that way.
I am a mother now and I do not want to be away from my Sloane for that whole weekend.
Aimee(funfairiegirl is flying in but staying at my place) and we got a room for Sat night basically so we can just get ready that night and have a place to crash. Em gets to bring the older mini this year, they are letting 16 year olds come with their parents so that is a huge deal so we wanted to do one night in the hotel..but other than that. I am not ready for all those nights away from my what will she be like 5 month old..no way jose.
I will miss you but I totally understand.
*hugs* and love.
