Coming in Summer 2009

After seeing the International and Teaser trailer, I think this is the one we will be seeing in American theaters. It looks good! Because of that silly Broadway play Equus, the movie was pushed back so we have to wait until the summer to see it.



I'm leaving soon to help Stephanie find a wedding dress! It is very rainy today, I wonder if the Michigan game is going to be delayed?

One more week!

One more week until Japan! Matt and I have been super busy trying to plan last minute details. For instance, I found out that I need a copy of my prescription to bring an inhaler and there are some rail passes that we have to buy outside of Japan to get the visitor discount. Matt has a ton of things scheduled at work this week since he had to keep the next few weeks open. We are busy bees!

The World Election- Finally Over!

I think it's amazing how what we do here in the U.S. has a huge impact on the world. This was shown last night/this morning with world cities waiting just like Americans on election results. I don't wait around for other countries' results, which shows how integral America is to the livelihood of others.

I watched CNN and FoxNews last night and besides footage from various American cities, there were HUGE crowds in Sydney, Hong Kong, Kenya, and many others. Wow! Watching all this, I feel truly privileged to be an American, and an American voter at that.

President-Elect Obama and US citizens have a LONG road ahead. I am hopeful that our generation can do a better job for our children than our parents' generation of presidents did for us. We have inherited a country in horrible condition and I hope Obama steps up to the task that we Americans have given him.
