try again

Weird--that post for my brother-in-law is loco! After I posted my last post both posts for Chris disappeared...so here it is again...for my brother-in-law Chris:
I'm sorry I made fun of Tintern Abbey. I LOVED the abbey--but they charged me full admission (first of all...admission into a church?) when I only had 20 minutes before it closed. And then they chased me out. I ran away for a bit, got lost, then gave in.
HOWEVER disagreeable the staff were, the actually building was fantastic, and I'd venture to say it is also one of my favourite places on earth.

To Chris:


p.s. new vulgarity rule: there's to be none to little bad words. We're all intelligent people here! Let's use the other 85% of our brains and expand our vernacular. Instead of one of my favourites 'well shit' I'm going to try 'Consequently I'm perturbed and chagrined!'
ps2. I've started listening to Christmas music...anyone else?

Damage control:


Man, I've been offending people right and left here. I'm sorry everyone. This picture is for you...I didn't draw it--I found it on Google...but it says it all really. And the wolf really speaks to me.

I'd destroy this blog and start again if I wasn't so darn funny! I just can't bring myself to destroy all those funny blogs and quips. Oh, and the funny comments too! (RB, you're hilare!) But I have edited here and there, because, as a dear friend of mine pointed out, this blog doesn't really represent who I am very well.
So, I'm changing the format a little. Less negative talking...more positive, uplifting, glorifying God comments. This does not mean I won't rant and rave now and then...just less I suppose. Try and keep the anger under control.

So to avoid hurting and insulting people, I've found this excellent diagram. Please refer to it if you find yourself offended or hurt..."Oh! I just realized--I'm offended by that!" and let me know where you are on your scale of displeasure.


TTFN, everyone! It's been a gas!

Some close-ups!


This is a lioness on the prowl. This was also about the time I got really freaked out by how close she came to our vehicle. Right Amy?


And this is an elephant--this close up is more impressive on my computer. You can actually see her eye-lashes in this photo. Sorry I can't get it bigger so you can see.

To whet your palet...

So many zebra in Kenya. Who'd a thought it???!?! But they take cool pictures. Well, I take the pictuers--I mean they look cool in photographs.

This image is elephants walking into the Kenyan sunset. Romantic huh?

And this is me in Tintern Abbey in Wales. This abbey was build in the 1200s, and this is all that's left: a huge, roofless tourist trap.


How's that for now people? Concidering I'm severly anemic and consequently more lazy than usual?
love, me. Do it! LOVE ME!

I'm sorry...


Hey people.
So, as per my suspicions, I either have malaria (less likely) or mono (highly likely).
That explains my COMPLETE lack of interest in posting anything about my trip inlcuding pictures because I've been so damn tired!!!!! But I hope you do enjoy the following pictures taken recently on my new iMac.
This is my roommate Rebekah and her sister Gillian.
Hopefully I'll post something interesting soon,
love
