Laughlin here we come!

Today is Ceasar Chavez Day. Ceasar Chavez stood up for fieldworker rights. Kids are not in school and government offices are closed (obviously). Since I work for the Department of Agriculture, my most recent adventure has been inspecting Iceberg lettuce when it is harvested in the fields before you purchase it in retail. The thing that I find the most interesting is that as I sit here at home, the fieldworkers who were represnted by Mr. Ceasar Chavez, are not taking the day off. Trust me on that one. That is who I have been working with since last Monday. Seems pretty lame to me.

We are going to a team penning in Laughlin for 4 days. I am very excited. The ride there and back should be interesting. I normally pass out as soon as we get on the freeway. But this year we are taking a girl who pens with us. Don't worry she doesn't have internet. She talks ALOT. We took her last year she talked the WHOLE 6 hours there and back. I love conversation but after the first 1.5 my ears get tired and my mind tends to wander. I feel a migraine coming on. Heather, the code word is headache. Remember that! We are taking our radios and I will let you listen to everything. Just teasing, I will only envy your peace.

Finally, my first blog and text all on one day!

Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome ME to the 21st century!

Yes, I do have a myspace, or myspot as Jd calls it, that I check about 1-2x a month. Yes, I do have facebook too that I have consistantly checked about once every 6 months. So I am "in" right. NOT. I have, in one day, sent my first text message and started my first blog!

Texting: Wow, what a chore. How do you people do it? I am 25 and type as if I were 50 and have never typed a day in my life. Second, I tried to send people messages letting them know that I had offically crawled out from under the "No, I don't have text messaging" rock, and after the 10th error message I finally figured out that you had to have a 10 digit number to send a text. Amazing! I give all of you props who replied with short paragraphs within a half a second. Don't expect to hear from me within the hour. :)

Blogging: Not as exciting making one as it is reading other's life adventures. I had no idea what a widget was. I had to google "making a blog" to figure it out! But once I figured it out, I have enjoyed playing with it. I will write about the most interesting things that I can come up with...LOL.
