I went to Tulsa today!

Very very unlike my neck of the woods.  But a fun excursion.  :)  I can't tell you how many times my damn Garmin had to tell me "recalculating" because I had missed some exit or another...but hey...that's what she gets paid for.  So yeah...a fun day in the city filled with literary pleasures and general city bustles.  Loved it.

There was a minor moment of drama between Elvis and myself, but it was such a nothing that I won't even mention it here.  It really was a nothing.  One of those trivial spats between couples that never matter in five minutes time.  It was one of those. 

Now on to the important topic of the day:  Casey Anthony is found NOT GUILTY!!!!!!  Should I say that again, because I don't think it was shocking enough the first time...  <<<NOT GUILTY>>>
Really?  Wow.  Hmmm.  I, along with the rest of America, am stunned!  I think she did it.  I'm pretty sure she killed her baby.  Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuttttttttttttttttt....the prosecution did not prove it.  Case closed.  Because if they had proven it...right-o, you know where I'm headed.  I did tear up when they read the not guilty verdict.  There was something so incredibly human and raw in Casey's sharp intake of breath...like she was trying to get air...and the crumbling of her composure as she tried to maintain the court's rules and not cry out.  It was moving.  And I love Jose Baez.  He is a true gentleman, and was incredibly gracious in the after comments to the press.  He gave accolades to the prosecution team (even though Linda Drane-Burdick wouldn't even shake his hand after the court was recessed...I saw that, Linda, and you lost a lot of my respect for that racial snub), and the few words that he spoke in Spanish to his mother were incredibly touching.  I have always said that I felt that he was the more gracious attorney versus Jeff Ashton the arrogant prick.  And in case I seem over informed on the case...I AM!  I have lived, eaten, dreamed, breathed this case for 6 weeks now.  I have mixed feelings on the outcome, but I do believe in our justice system.  Lord knows, if I were innocent and being tried by a jury of my peers, I would seek the same outcome.  Let freedom ring.
