Happy Saturday Everyone!
Get to cracking those eggs, lol French toast sounds SO good. Any one want to converge on Deema's house for breakfast? LOL Just kidding! Can you imagine 2000 people showing up at your door unannounced? What a sight that would be to open your door to.

I woke up feeling under the weather and I'm supposed to go to the dentist for a cleaning. Please tell me there's something about not being able to go to the dentist when you've got a cold.
Oh and thanks a lot, doodle, for giving me your cold.

Jun 9 2007, 12:30 PM
its says GEORGES in arabic. lol when i told him i got it done, he said 'how do you know it says my name? how do you know he spelled it right? what if you have some other guys name on you, you cant take it off'
i got the graphic from the internet lol. and then in a panic i went to his cousins resturant and knew that he was the only one that can read arabic around here...and i didnt ask him if it said blah blah...i just went in and i said 'see my newest addition, my first tattoo' and he is like 'oh that is so nice, lovely, it says Georges' im like 'DOES IT REALLY??' is it correct?? lol he said it was perfect. phhhewwww panic over.
my next one will be something with Daemian's name on it. his name is longer lol and now i know i can handle that pain. im not sure if i will have his name spelled in arabic or not, prolly not, ill just have it in english, but not sure what i want with it......

hmmmmm......showed the capping of the mosque pic to the hubster and he was a wee bit ticked that the American flag is on it.
he was like, "what is this hanging from the top habibi....why they do that??????"
and I said, "it's the American flag"
and he said, "I know but there should be no flags at all on it, why would they do this thing"

Yeah let me know what he says. I just dont' even notice it anymore. I mean here we have the Big Dig still going on and TONS of construction and cranes everywhere and each one has a flag on it. It's just something that I've gotten used to seeing since the war started so I just assume it's something everyone does now a-days but now I wonder if there's some rule that there shouldn't be one on it. To be honest there was not one Egyptian flag on any of the masjids in Egypt so maybe he has a point.

You know I didn't even notice it till he brought it up but was it still there once the crane was removed? And yeah I did think that maybe the lawsuit had something to do with it. Showing goodwill or something maybe. Oh well here I am trying to show my husband that see honey we have mosques here too!!! and he picks out the flag issue. lol. I can't win!!!!
