from sea to shining sea...

Happy Fourth of July!!!

Today truly is my day of independence, as i finally came clean with my job about the big trip coming up! Suprisingly, they could NOT have been cooler! Worked out when my last day would be, arranged for my vacation days to be paid as well, and then we started talking long term. I was worried that they wouldn't want me back after i told them i need 3 weeks off, but ... they do! Now it's a matter of straightening out my visa and booking return flights! woo hoo! :) i feel really good about everything now.

Had a great weekend, spend saturday afternoon at LIVE 8!!! with michael & gitta... i was the ONLY person in london screaming my head off when they showed 30 seconds of DMB performing in philly... but oh well. hehehe. great day, such a powerful event. very glad i went.

late night saturday i met up with Sharelle in, shock of all shocks... crapham, otherwise known as clapham. we went to a club i've often wondered about called infernos. it was £10 to get in, which is ridiculous... but if anyone had told me that the BEST CLUB EVER was 2 feet from where i live perhaps i wouldn't refer to it has crapham!!! any club that plays tiffany, followed by britney, followed by lionel richie is a CLUB I WANT TO BE AT!!! hehehe. sharelle and i had no less than 4 guys trying to follow us home. blondes do have more fun!

sunday after about 4 hours sleep i went to lovely notting hill to meet up with rebecca for some shopping and BATMAN! totally understand yusef's obsession! great movie!

off to celebrate america's independence in england! hehehe.
