About a month ago, me and Mo went to Dubai. Why do people rant and rave about Dubai? I just don't get it. Like if I traveled directly from the US to Dubai, I would literally cry because it doesn't feel like a vacation city at all. I see the commercials for Dubai tourism and it looks amazing, but after going there, I just didn't feel it. It is a commercialized city and it is a developing city, so maybe in the future, it will be cooler.
We went to the Burj Al Arab for lunch and it was okay. The hotel is really gorgeous, but the lunch wasn't that great. Honestly not worth all the money we spent. It didn't feel like anything spectacular like it should have been.
We also went to the Wild Wadi Water Park and back in the US, we go to Cedar Point which is probably one of the best, if not the best amusement park in the world...anyway, no comparison...not even close, but I'm a huge water park fan, so I still had fun at Wild Wadi and I'd go back if and when we venture to Dubai.
We also drove to Abu Dhabi and we had a great time. The city's corniche is amazing and there are parks and trees all around the city. I told my husband I felt like eating a sharwarma and I told him to stop at this place [sorry folks, I don't remember the name] right off the corniche because when there are a lot of cars crammed in front of a restaurant in the Gulf, the restaurant has to be good...and I kid you not, that was probably the best sharwarma I ever had! When we were driving back to Dubai clouds were scattered probably 25 feet above us and it looked totally amazing with the lights.
This just goes to show how messed up and biased Fox News really is. It is a news agency's responsibility to bring the actual facts to the public and Fox News likes to distort the truth.

A month ago I read another story which caught Fox News making up stories. They made up an 8 part story about a Muslim boy being tormented by classmates with ham at lunchtime and in reaction to this boy's complaint, the school district put into place an "anti-ham response plan" [I mean right there that sounds like Fox lingo to me]. The superintendent is now suing Fox because he received several threats for this untrue information that Fox has thoughtlessly thrown at the public. I don't know what is sadder, that they are blatantly making up the news or the best news story they can come up is about a ham sandwich.

I bought a really nice Nautica comforter this past winter, even though it's hot and humid here right now, we have the AC cranked up and in the winter, it was cold. Anyways, when I got it, I loved it so much, it felt like I was sleeping in a cloud. It was the most cuddly thing in the world, second to Kiki of course. I like to sleep a lot, so I just couldn't stop being excited and ranting and raving about it. Anyways, I took it to the dry cleaners because that is what it says on the tag and now....it's all lumpy and it looks terrible and I'm really bugged!!!
