Let me tell you how bad I've got it...this morning driving to work, I started to think about the row crew and started singing, "Stroke it, Stroke it, come on gang, stroke it! You on the Left, You on the Right!" I think I had one too many Benadryl, and I only took one! Maybe I should be more appropriate and go back to: Row, Row, Row your boat...can we just drift for the rest of the weekend? Between y'alls Pina's, Mai Tais, Long Island Teas, I've gotten sea-sick, and I don't drink. Shame on y'all for drinking and rowing at the same time. LOL What are we going to tell our babies?

Unless we got our BC on Friday and get submitted on Monday or Tuesday we won't be able to go until the latter part of the month. I had made reservations at La Casa Grande for 8/14 to 8/18, but looks as though I may have to cancel those plans. Thank God I didn't buy plane tickets when I was told that the BC may be ready on 7/28. Hopefully translation will not take too long, but I've heard that there are only 2 or 3 people working in the translation "department", so....
If we don't stay at La Casa, then I'd like to stay at the Radisson. I want to be as close to the Embassy as possible and LA Casa is right next door. When (IF) we the baby's Visa from the Embassy, I would like to take a taxi to the Marriot and purchase the lap ticket for return visit. But I don't want to travel around the city until I have those completed papers in my hand! Don't want any trouble with the local authorities.

Oh Please, sans the cranberry PUH-LEAZE! Responsible my eye, I think we're all ready to take the paddles (oars) out of the water and use them on the CR "crew". Okay, okay, we are a non-violent group of parents. Maybe I can get a new job...in GC...issuing hmmmm. What should I be issuing?
