Or should I just keep chasing pavements;

"Chasing Pavement" by Adele

I promised these videos some time around last week but myOtaku has been down for a long time. I do hope you guys can forgive me. I also got extremely lazy in translating the spanish one. I will try my best to translate it under the video after posting. I had three videos planned to show but the one I picked of the guitar playing boy was too dark. I'm trying to edit it in Muvee Maker but I'm not sure if it will be worth watching because of it's poor quality. Although, the bee hiving one is up and ready. I hope you all enjoy.

[VIDEO ONE]
In this video my brother is asking my cousin, Yesi how it felt to be ugly. We actually act stupid like that when we get bored. She then started saying you should ask your other cousins. When she grabs the cane and stretches, she's mimmicking my brother's actions and questions. She then goes on to say that they'll answer you "quick, fast, and in a hurry." Lol. When she does the whole hand shaking thing and we start laughing like retards she's actually responding how she thinks our other cousins will respond by saying, "homie, it's tight." God, I love her! After that she starts saying, "I'm going to tell my mum that you're making fun of me." She goes on saying, "look at karma. I discriminate against them and you against me for them." Andy then replies that he was only kidding. Anyways, she goes on saying things like go ask your cousins. We have this inside joke where we say your cousins instead of our cousins because we fake claiming them. It's actually a long story that led to such things. In the end, though, she says "well, to avoid arguments, they're Gabby's cousins." To which we all laughed like tardos. That's the entire gist of the conversation there. At the end she gets serious and tells us how she hasn't visited our other cousins or G-Ma in a long time. We confirmed that when she finally came with us and was surprised that they finally cemented the street. They cemented it over a year ago.

[VIDEO TWO]
I'm behind the camera doing all the talking about dying and doing all the screaming and whining; my older brother, Andy, is the one trying to knock down the bee hive with my little brother's cane; my little brother, Munkey, is the one with the towel that starts hitting flying bees with it; and Marina's the one running out of the van and screaming with me after a few bees come flying out of the hive. With everyone's screams and running and crying, I think we have the good making of a horror film. Minus, of course, the sunshine and pleasant neighborhood. We were in Redlands, CA.

You're the monster underneath;

"Salem's Filled with Witches" by Anarbor

Let's not waste time and make this post longer than it should be. My Mexicali, Baja California roadtrip; two days to get there, 14 days actually in Mexicali, two days in California, and three and half days to get back home. I think I posted a few times while on the road, if you scroll down you can see some of those posts. There's a few in my World too. There's a total of 39 pictures, according to Photobucket, and I'm uploading a video right now as I type so, enjoy. Descriptions next to links. Links open in new windows. All pictures © Gabby & Blind Eye Photography.

ONE; Our first night stop was in Amarillo, Texas. My not-so-little brother, Munkey documented most of the trip with the video camera. This was the next morning at around 8 AM when we were getting ready to leave. The moment I took this picture, he was recording and you can see me lift the camera on the tape to take the shot.

TWO; On our way into Arizona we caught up to a group of tail gating old people in old cars. We passed about seven of them on a side road. We were driving too fast and them too slow for me to catch anything good. This was the best I could do.

THREE; Landscape: The Arizona Mountains and Desert. Incredibly beautiful to me but incredibly hot. We were lucky enough to have good A/C. Not like last time. [flashback] O_o

FOUR; Landscape: More Arizona mountain and desert. If you look closely the clouds resemble the shapes of the mountains below. I'm awesome, I know. Lol.

FIVE; Landscape: most of the road was green plains and cows, dry deserts and mountains, or small town living. Nothing too fun. This is another mid-Arizona desert shot.

SIX; Yuma, Arizona Palms. Day 2 completed we snatched a few rooms in Motel 6, bought some wifi, and ate McDonalds. It was disgusting. They put too much mayonnaise in my chicken sandwich.

SEVEN; Order from center to farthest: My older brother, Andy, his girlfriend, Marina, and my little brother Munkey. This was the fifth day we were in Mexicali. It was too cool that day for the month we were in so we hung outside my aunt and uncle's driveway. We were bored all day until my cousins, Yesi, Geles (pronounced he-les), Coco, and Ivett came home from school or work. Right there we were watching my Uncle Sabino and his mechanic fix his truck.

EIGHT; My Aunt Rosa, my cousin Mary's son, Raul, and the blind dog, Fiona. Somebody said something to my aunt and she dismissed it with a wave of the hand. Bloody hell, that woman's faces are amusing. I love her to bits. They were on their way to the local paper store to buy bubble gum for the kid.

NINE; Fiona, my cousin Coco's blind dog. She sees with sound. She wasn't always blind, is what they told us. She got sick and became blind. They took her to the vet who was able to provide medication. The second time it happened she wasn't so lucky. She's a sweet dog. They had an alpha male named Duke. He protected her with his life. Anytime we tried to pet her he would run up and put himself between her and us. If we even tried to raise a hand to her or get near while she slept he would immediately start growling. He bit my brother Andy twice but never once growled at me. I loved Duke.

TEN; Something awkward happened this day. (BTW, it's still day five.) It rained. Mexicali is actually a desert city when it rains everyone enjoys it. When we made our way to our G-Ma's house everyone was setting up chairs to sit outside in the rain. After the rain was gone, a rainbow appeared. Which is barely visible in the picture.

ELEVEN; My cousin, Yesi, talking to my brothers, Andy and Munkey. We talk stuff on our other cousins but it's a lot funnier when Yesi does it. When she's gone, the entire house feels empty and quiet.

TWELVE; Same day. My Tio Sabino and his grandson, Raul. My favourite shot of that day. I plan to resize and print this week to send it to my cousin, Mary. I love my Tio's mustache. It reminds me of Pancho Villa's.

THIRTEEN; Day 7 I think. I had just gotten my hair cut the day before. My little brother took this one in the back room where they slept. I slept in the main house's living room. My brothers grew to fear this room after all the ghosts stories my cousins told us. I never saw anything but Andy claimed he saw a shadow one time. After that, I had to escort them back and forth at night. It was a pain in the ass to be honest. That's Andy in the back talking to my cousin, Coco.

FOURTEEN; The next day, Day 8. My cousin Ivett reading a punk rock magazine called Grito!. She doesn't like taking pictures so I took one from behind without her knowing. The magazine she's reading featured one of my favourite bands, Paramore, on the front cover. Seeing as she collects the magazines she freaked when she found out that I had bought the newest issue the day before.

FIFTEEN; Our ritual whenever we visit: LOTERIA! It's just like bingo but with pictures and Spanish words and beans and money! Seriously, we play for money. Our chips for the playing sheets are uncooked pinto beans, and the sheets themselves feature pictures of things like a hand, or a drunk man, or Death, or a boot. These are the same for the deck of cards used to call out the pictures. Whoever gets a line across their playing sheet has to scream "Chorro!" which is spanish for diarrhea (lmao) and if you fill your entire sheet you scream "Buenas!" It's a lot funner than Bingo in my opinion. No one wants to sit and listen to "I2...N6...B4" when you can listen to "La Mano!...La Bota!...La Calaca!...La Sirena!...El Valiente!" (Translates to: the hand, the boot, the skeleton, the mermaid, the valiant.)

SIXTEEN; Wide shot. My seat at the Loteria table gave me a better view of everyone and their playing sheets. Unfortunately, there's a small chance of winning even with that advantage. I ended up losing all of my money that day while my Uncle Ramiro cracked jokes about it the entire time. From the right of the picture to around the table it's: Uncle Ramiro, Geles, Andy (who is not even visible in the pic), Ivett, Yesi, Alma (my haircutting, pedicure giving cousin), Aunt Rosa, and my Mum. Aunt and Uncle are my Mum's brother and sister and the four girls in the picture are all sisters. Daughters of my Aunt Rosa and Uncle Sabino. My aunt and uncle had the opposite of my mum, five girls and one boy (Coco). We are five boys and one girl (me).

SEVENTEEN; Munkey, at around 9 AM, ironing. This was the morning routine. I'd wake up at around 7 AM, say good morning to anyone around, go to the backroom, grab my clothes to take a shower, go back to the backroom, get asked what time it was by Andy and Marina, they'd get up, take a shower, Mum would get up, take a shower, during all the showers Munkey would go outside and iron. He'd then shower last, we'd eat breakfast at around lunch time with my uncle Sabino and Aunt Rosa, then we'd go fuck around the rest of the day until Yesi got home to liven us up. That's every morning. Fun fun.

EIGHTEEN; And this is how we fucked around. My brothers and Marina climbed on the roof to soak in the sun. I'd be damned if I went up there. A fuck that. I'm deathly afraid of heights. The ladder they climbed was makeshift and the sun was too hot to be sitting in it like that. Marina came back down redder than a cherry.

NINETEEN; This was the last day we were at G-Ma's. My cousin Yesi doesn't like having pictures taken. Most of the ones I have of her she doesn't know I have them or she wasn't expecting them. The tree she wrapped around is actually a beautiful smelling Eucalyptus tree. It sits right outside the gate of my grandmother's. Every time we go we sit out there and away from the rest of the family. There's bad blood brewing between us and them, if you really want to know. I prefer to stand by Yesi and her family than any where else.

TWENTY; This was a local neighborhood boy. One of my many cousins asked him to stop by to play a few songs. I thought he was bloody adorable. I wanted to rape him. (lol). Seriously. I got back from the local store with Yesi and found this kid playing and singing. I instantly loved him besides the fact that he was off key. I never knew his name. He played about four songs while I was there and left.

TWENTY-ONE; After a night of dancing at my Aunt Rosa's we called it quits at around 3 AM. We then left the next morning at around 7 AM. This was on our way towards the border. Besides Yesi's family, I was going to miss the Mexicali sunshine the most. I would stretch to it every morning and couldn't wake up with out it. My seat in the car was horrible because it tended to ruin most of my shots because I couldn't open the windows. This explains the camera reflecting in the glass. yay, right?

TWENTY-TWO; In line to cross the border between Mexicali and Calexico. During this time I saw a Mexican woman hugging a border patrol with the fence between them. That image was powerful to me but I couldn't keep the picture. My brother gets paranoid about taking pictures of border patrol which in turn gets me paranoid about having them. When we reached the gate I deleted the shot and took my memory card out of the camera and stuffed it in my pocket in case they tried to search our car. Something that happened last time we came.

TWENTY-THREE; A man started cleaning our windows with water without asking first, forcing us to pay him something. There's a ton of window washers near the border along with people selling novelties and candy. If you look to the right of the picture you can see the fence that divides Mexico and America. Last time we came I took a picture of a man climbing the fence and making a run for it when he got across. Back then though, there was less border patrol around the fence.

TWENTY-FOUR; A kid on a skooter. It was fucking hot when we were waiting to get past the border and this kid was with someone who was selling either novelties or window washes. I don't know who but I loved this picture. Besides the fact that that stupid blue car was in the way, the picture would have been good.

TWENTY-FIVE; Finally across the border, my Mum decided to let my brother, Andy, visit a store called Malosos in Calexico, California. Unfortunately the store didn't open till 10 AM and we got across the border at around 8. We killed the two hours of waiting by drawing and tagging on signs, pay phones, and news boxes, taking pictures, and shopping around the clothes stores. This was a sign my little brother drew on. My Mum damn near crapped her pants when she found out what we were doing.

TWENTY-SIX; Wide shot. City of Calexico tower. I don't know what this building was but I liked it. It was across the corner from the sign we drew on.

TWENTY-SEVEN; Redlands, California visiting some more family. My brothers killed time knocking down bee hives. Here's one my brother Andy was playing with.

TWENTY-EIGHT; After knocking down both dead and live bee hives, my brother did a victory song and dance. Isn't he the handy man hero? And I think that's Marina picking her nose in the background. Ha ha!

TWENTY-NINE; Junkies! Can't visit a state without finding a junkie or two. This pair was outside a gas station we stopped at on our way out of Redlands. The man was passed out already and the woman was swaying this way and that during this shot. It was an awkward and ugly sight, to say the least.

THIRTY; A hotel pool in California. We left Redlands at around 5 PM and didn't make it out of California by nightfall. We spent the night in a Motel 6 again and my brothers and Marina hung out by the pool. I'm not much of a swimmer so I preferred to stay dry and take pictures.

THIRTY-ONE; My brothers pretending to drown in a three feet pool. They're awful because I was already shitting bricks watching Munkey manuever his way around the water.

THIRTY-TWO; Me reading The Host by Stephenie Meyer. Ironically enough, the book is based in the middle of the Arizona desert which is located behind me outside the window. Taken by Munkey when I wasn't paying attention.

THIRTY-THREE; Landscape: More Arizona mountiains.

THIRTY-FOUR; Arizona Bridges! I loved these bridges. I wished ours were this colourful. Our interstate bridges suck ass.

THIRTY-FIVE; Arizona sky. I think I liked Arizona scenery more than the rest of the states. I definitely loved New Mexico's people though. I scoped me out some Native American boys. My God, they are some sexy beasts. I saw one in a Wal Mart out there that reminded me of Jacob Black. He looked just like Stephenie Meyer described him except his hair was much longer.

THIRTY-SIX; I think this was Oklahoma or Kansas. I'm not sure. I can't remember. Windmills are awesome though.

THIRTY-SEVEN; Kansas sunset over a barn. Now lie and tell me you hate the sun. I positively love it.

THIRTY-EIGHT; The next day was unfortunately gloomy and gray. It sucked ass. It rained like hell when we finally reached Kansas City. Quite a welcome. -_-

So it was only 38. That's basically the entire trip in a nutshell. Hope you enjoyed and sorry I did it a day later than I promised. I'll try and have the videos up in the next few days. One is my brother knocking down a live bee hive and the rest of us running from it. Another is a short clip of my guitar playing lover boy, and the last will probably be my cousin Yesi talking stuff on our other cousins. It's in spanish but the gestures she makes are funny. I'll try and translate it unless I get lazy and decide not to put it up.

Love to anyone who made it this far.

- Gabbs.

You've got a dark heart. You've got a cold kiss;

"Honey" by The Hush Sound

Hey loves! I missed you all! I am finally home. Yay, right? Home tastes bittersweet. I wasn't ready to leave. I lingered outside the car as long as I could; attempting, in some way, to plant myself in my aunt and uncle's driveway. I loved it in Mexicali. I miss it and my cousins. Luckily enough, my Mum found a few houses for in Calexico, right outside the Mexican border. We will hopefully be moving by next year.

Anyways, the ride itself was something I could possibly do without. I sat in the back seat, cramped up against the luggage. I was comfortable enough when I slept seeing as I had somewhere upon which to stretch my legs but I always felt the awkward position in my neck when I awoke. It was terrible. I usually woke up disoriented without a sense of time or place. One minute it's Arizona, the next it's California. Incredibly weird. You think you lose six hours on the road but come Arizona, you gain two back. Time zones, kiddos, are not fun. The places I enjoyed on the road were mostly New Mexico and Arizona. I loved the Native American stops even though we didn't really stop. My brother, our driver, refused to stop until we made it to Mexico. I bet if humans didn't have to pee and cars didn't need gas, we wouldn't have stopped at all. He's such a dictator sometimes. Anyways, the vacation itself lasted exactly two weeks in Mexicali, BC. We spent two and a half days driving there and four days driving back. My Mum got sick on our way home and we stopped about six hours early in New Mexico so she could get some rest. Then we stopped in Wichita, KS because they didn't want to drive in the dark. Between Kansas and Missouri there's tons of plains with hardly any light post. Not the best place to get lost.

I had fun though and took several pictures and videos. I've yet to upload them to Photobucket but when I do, I will give you all a proper, in depth report of the trip. I had actually planned it for right now but I'm getting yelled at because we haven't eaten today and my mum got dinner started as soon as the kitchen was clean. Must leave now. Will type more later.

Love Always, Gabbs.

"Sour Times" by Portishead

Greetings from Amarillo, Texas! Hey loves, I promised I would try and upload some pictures during my hotel stay so here they are. We actually didn't stop at many places unless it was to eat or pee so these next few are from the actual road. I had the most uncomfortable seat in the house which is the back seat but after sitting there so long you get used to it. These are some shots I took from there in three different states.

ONE; This one's from the gas station in my hometown in Missouri. My brother and his girlfriend were checking the map and filling up the van before we hit the road. The first row of seats is Andy and Marina, the second row are Munkey and Mum, and, of course, I'm behind the camera.

TWO; Most of the land we passed through was plains so this is what the entire road looked like from the moment we entered Kansas to Texas. This particular plain is located between Wichita and Topeka, Kansas.

THREE; From Kansas we headed southwest to Oklahoma. These are some windmill fields in the plains of Oklahoma located roughly two hours from entering Texas.

FOUR; Another shot from the Oklahoma plains. This was nearing the Cherokee Trade Posts. Miles away in the plains the sky was clouding over and I got a shot of a pretty impressive rain shaft.

Those are the only shots I have so far seeing as we haven't been much into snapping photos. We took some video but it takes too long to upload. I'll upload that when I finally get back home. forgive me if some of the pictures are poor quality but we were driving at speeds of about 65-70 MPH and my back seat was blocked from most of my left view. All these shots were taken from the right side window or above the luggage in the back.

Enjoy kiddos and tomor--er, today, much later, I will take a few more photos before we leave the hotel and update if we catch another hotel with wifi. I paid for 24 hrs of wifi at Motel 6. Yay.

With love, Gabby

"Numb" by Portishead

I update my World account and I figured I'd do the same here before I go. We're leaving the city today for Mexico. I'm very nearly through packing and finishing the laundry. Aside from that, everything else is ready. My brother, Andy, and his girlfriend, Marina (who will be tagging along) reviewed the map yesterday morning while I drank hot chocolate and tried to escape the noise. The house feels very cluttered and noisy with everything and everyone in it. It's hectic. I hate it when it's like that. [yawn]

I haven't slept yet. I've been up all night checking lists off and watching old vampire movies on TCM. I'm not sure what the movie was called but it was funny. There was a blonde vampire that gives me the suspicious idea that Anne Rice had watched the movie before thus giving birth to Lestat. Their personalities were alike in many ways. Arrogant, easily amused, murderous to some extent, so and so forth.

Anyways, my little brother mentioned how he wanted to document the trip through video so he and I will be filming at every stop and I'll give everyone the occassional interview. I'll be taking pictures too and uploading them every night before bed. If we end up at a hotel with free wifi service I will be updating you guys. Probably not with video but a picture or two will be very definitely be involved. So with that, I leave you all for the next few days.

Take care and congratulations to any graduating seniors out there. My friend's graduating but unfortunately, I'll be gone for the ceremony.

With love, Gabbs.

P. S. There is a video on my Worlds post called Twilight in a Nutshell (or TiaN). I recommend you watch to get a good laugh.

"Glory Box" by Portishead

Hello Lovelies. I hope you didn't really think I would completely abandon you? That's actually impossible to imagine in my head. Lol. As many times as I whined about the pointlessness of having two blogs I've felt forced to contradict myself and create another on TheOtaku. I hope you all can find it in your hearts to forgive me. Most of my early friends all moved so I must keep up to date with those kiddos.

Anyways, what's going on lovers? Fill me in; I've missed you all while I was gone. I'm sad to see that myOtaku hasn't changed much from then. I miss my edit picture link and the quote beneath so does not belong to Edward Cullen. That was actually mouthed by the handsome manbeast Jacob Black. WHO, by the way, I am extremely happy to hear was cast FINALLY. I know, I know, I'm terribly late but I was without a laptop for a long time. I actually watched the Adventures of Shark Boy and Lava Girl. Incredibely childish but I loved the little shark boy. I couldn't believe the boy's that big already. I couldn't imagine him as Jacob until I saw the behind the scenes interview he did with MTV and he had that long wig on. I damn near melted in my seat; the boy's bloody adorable! And in case you're still wondering who in bloody hell I'm talking about it's Taylor Lautner. Look him up, you won't be disappointed. Unless of course you're a Jacob hater! [i respectfully ask that you keep your jacob flaming comments to yourself if you are].

Eeek! Moving on--LIFE! It's hectic on some ocassions. Our plans for Mexico fell apart a bit. We've had to push the date back twice, now we leave next Wednesday instead of this Saturday. My mum's employer refused to give her her vacation days until next week so we'll have to wait on that asshole to give the OK. Until then we've been getting everything ready. I bought some virus protection for my laptop, Quil, [lol] and today I plan on going to Best Buy to collect some music then to the local bookstore for the month's issue of Juxtapoz Magazine. They have a photography issue that I've been dying to get for the road. I bought a book to keep me occupied too. It's called Water for Elephants and I can't remember who the author was because I just bought it yesterday but I liked the reviews it got and loved its cover art. As soon as I read I'll let you all know whether it melted my face or not. Oh and speaking of new books! The Host by Stephenie Meyer was hit bookshelves a few days ago. I WILL PWN! I LOVE STEPHENIE MEYER! --and yes, that does require the use of capitals. I should buy that with my magazine too.

Well, this post is getting longer than it should be so I will end it here. I've missed you guys. Take care and let me know how your life's going.

With love,
Gabbs.

Apparently, no one updates here anymore. No one on my list anyways; besides of course, Talim. Forgive me dear myOtakus but I am sad to report that I, too, have moved. I will post here from time to time but not as often.

Kill me Romantically.

"My Moon, My Man" by Feist

I actually heard it was pretty boring over here so I figured I'd drop in. I'm still not here for too long but just enough to let you know I still exist. That's my greatest accomplishment so far. I should add that to my sidebar there. Anyways, babysitting--more work that I originally anticipated. Especially when babies start getting the whole sticky fingers syndrome. My neice likes to knock down liquid filled cups. Yay. Not really.

Besides babysitting I've been lounging around a lot and kicking bad habits. Which are a lot in my case. Most of which unhealthy. Starting strong but we'll have to wait and see how things go from here. Another thing, a friend of mine is coming in from California and request a "hang out day." I haven't seen her in years so this is sure to be fun. Umm...I guess that's all on my end. I'm sorry I don't have much to update on I just don't want you to get feelings of abandonment on myO. They're not fun.

With love, Gabbs

"Stay Where You Are" by The Midnight Renewal

I can't be on long seeing as my net has been going off and on lately and I let my sister in law borrow my laptop charger for a few days. Something's wrong with hers so yeah. I just wanted to update you guys and let you know that I am indeed still alive. I started babysitting my neice while her mom goes to school and get about 40 to 50 for a few hours a day every week. She sleeps through most of the day so she's not much a hassle. Yay for money. Even if it is a little bit. Lol.

Besides that, my Mum's bent on Mexico so I'm going to try and make as much money before we leave so I'm going to stop by a local bakery where my friend works in the afternoons and see if she can put the good word in for me. Besides, it'll be fun working there with her. I'll come home smelling like warm bread. Lol.

Alright, I should be in bed right now so I'll leave you all with that. I'm sorry if I can't visit often or update. Bear with me kiddos; I'll be up and running in a few weeks.

With love, Gabby

P. S. Please excuse any types and grammar errors. I don't have time to review. -_-;

"Tired and Uninspired" by My American Heart

Hello lovelies. It's been a little over a week since my last post and I'm terribly sorry about that. I have not been neglecting myO, I just haven't had anything to post about. There's no use in updating when you've nothing to update on. I have checked in every few days to visit but my net has been going off and on which has been preventing me from commenting very much. Right now I'm on my laptop which is subject to shutting off without my command. Grr.

Anyways, what I really wanted to post about. I've been reading the Vampire Chronicles and a few other titles by Laurie Halse Anderson and J. D. Salinger to keep me entertained. The weather has been changing dramatically over the past few days. Last Tuesday and Wednesday was bright and sunny with temperatures in the 70s and the days following that were filled with clouds and rain and snow. Right now it looks like a scene out of a Tim Burton movie. I did take advantage of the few sunny days we had though, and spent the time at my brother's apartment sun bathing. He has an awesome third story balcony that feels so far from the world below. We sat there for hours reading, listening to music, smoking, talking, and harassing passersby that couldn't find us. Lol. Such fun! I'd eventually come home though, and fade into the text of the book. My brothers have been taking notice of my current infatuation and one of them is determined to make me put the book down. He came home last Friday with a "present" for me. Something he claims "I've been begging for."

A crumby Nintendo 64.

HAHA.

Seriously. He came to the basement where I was so comfortably reading and doing laundry and tried to get my attention. After failing several times he finally revealed that he had a gift for me and brought down a plastic box and wires. He explained why he bought it then offered to buy me Zelda so long as I promised to tear my eyes away from the books and computer. He made me laugh like a tard when he said this but, to be honest, I had been complaining about how much I missed playing Zelda. So I took his offer and now I am here, waiting for him to find Zelda somewhere. Although I did just get through reading some more. Lol. (Shh! Don't tell him.) My little brother also laughed like a tard when I mentioned this to him and said something about how Zelda sucked. My answer: Psht, yeah right, Zelda's fucking awesome.

Besides that, my Mum is planning a trip to Mexico this coming May but I doubt we'll be going. I'm not quite sure. If we do go, I'll make sure to update you guys on the road. I plan on taking my laptop for this ocassion if it does indeed arise.

Now, that all said, take care lovers and sorry for not being around so often. I don't want to waste your time though if I've nothing to post about. I do hope you understand.

With Love, Gabby.
