OK, so yesterday Matt and I took the kids to the Oklahoma City Zoo. It was a beautiful day and we had a picnic and walked around for about 4 hours.
As we walked around, I realized 2 things:
1) People have NO respect for ANYTHING anymore! We were walking through the Oklahoma Trails, which is a really nice, newer exhibit. For most of the way, you are walking on a "boardwalk". People and their children were tossing their trash, empty pop bottles, etc. off the railing to the ground below like it was no big deal. COME ON PEOPLE! HOW FREAKIN' LAZY CAN YOU GET? THERE WERE TRASH CANS ALL OVER THE PLACE! This just goes to prove the point that you can't have anything new because it will soon be ruined!
2) I am SICK of seeing fat kids! I don't mean kids that are a little chubby or have a little body fat. I mean FAT kids. IT was DISGUSTING how many fat kids were out there yesterday. This one kid that was attempting to "play" on the playground couldn't even chase his sister around for more than like 10 seconds without stopping because he was completely out of breath! Another fat roly poly was drenched in sweat just from walking through the herpatarium. In my oh so humble opinion, this is just another form of child abuse! If your kid is so fat that he/she can't run for 10 seconds, it's time to make them step away from the Twinkies people!
In general, I think it's all Matt's fault. He's rubbing off on me after 8 years with his general dislike of people and their little annoying nuances. I can't wait to move to the country in Colorado and live away from people. I know I'll still have to deal with the public, but it won't be near as often as now, and I can only hope that in moving somewhere like Colorado, maybe the people will be somewhat different and possibly a little more respectful of their surroundings and the earth in general.
I know, I sound all gloom and doom today, but I'm really not. Just venting really. Get used to it if you're gonna read my blog, cause I'm sure there will be a lot more in the future. I find that with writing I can vent much easier.
Got to get off here for now so I can make Matt's birthday cake...35 years young today!
So long, old friend.

happy birthday matt! i love your blog...
i've had several suggestions of scrapbooking...problem is that i'm not a crafty person and don't really have the flair for all the cute stuff people do. i admire the craft, but don't see it as something i enjoy. i'm going to consider the crochet though...
