[quote] I do agree with most of your points, and I am certainly no McCain fan, but I will be voting for him soley as a vote against Obama.[/quote] This seems to be my philosophy too.

No, but my husband (for how long, I'm not sure) is, has and I don't think there are words for how much agony this has caused me. It is a horrible thing to do to the person who you committed to love and cherish, forsaking all others, until death do us part. I just can't find the humor in any of it anymore.
You're a lucky woman. I'm trying not to be jealous because at the moment I mostly hate my life.
It's a battle but I think a battle worth fighting. Mental hugs and prayers are being sent your way. I draw the line at animal sacrifices. Well unless they are pests - I have no problem with whacking the bugs.
I don't think you can blame these pregnancies on a movie. For one thing, these women are choosing to raise their kids not give them up for adoption.
Those waiting in the hospital days have to have more than 24 hours. They just go on and on and seem like they will never end.
Actually teenage pregnancy rates are at a thirty year low. This spike in this little town is an aberration.
I want to see this. Maybe next week. Did the girls like it? My older boys seem to think they are too big for these type of movies but they want to see kung fu panda.
[quote]A Christian clinic would NEVER have closed their eyes to such a pact. Because their goal is to try to keep kids from having sex, counseling would have been foremost on their mind when that first girl came in for a test. [/quote] So anytime a girl comes into a Christian clinic they would ask her whether she made a pact with other girls to have babies together? I would think that you would be happy that they chose to carry their pregnancies to term. Oh and Lula,
It is very hard to find factual and unbiased news sources. I don't think that means that they should be called a criminal enterprise though. You just have to read or watch knowing the philosophy that influences that source. I live near DFW. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram is liberal and the Dallas Morning News is conservative. The bias is extremely obvious to me by the main headline of the day. The top story is many times the same wire story but you would
I struggle with change too. I have stayed in situations that I really should have moved on in because I would rather stay with the familiar misery than take a chance on the unknown. I really have no words of wisdom, just a I know what you mean.
It doesn't bother me at all. I know that the Fourth of July is Independence Day. I think this just reminds of "the war against Christmas" Bill O'Reilly stuff. I think we should save our energy for things that are really significant not little things like whether stores call their sales Fourth of July sales or Independence Day sales. I get your thought on loosing the meaning of the holiday but I think it has maintained it's meaning more than some of our other holidays.<
[quote]So, in our home, it is a two-way street; but I feel ostracized when blanket generalizations are made that I do not contribute to the household chores.[/quote] That is awesome. I think people totally gender stereotype about housework and I hate it. I hate the fact that I am the only one judged by the condition of my home when there are five people living here. Somehow if it is not spotless that just seems to be a reflection on me. [quote]Some offered thoughtful wisdo
I hope everything is okay. Just the thought of the MRI freaks me out. Ramble on.
I work at home but I'm a home daycare provider so it's a completely different situation. I have been looking for a job outside of the home. Though there are benefits to working from home I am really looking forward to the social interaction of being in an actual workplace. You make some good points that many people don't consider about working at home. You are doing great if you have your kids trained not to bother you. I get so aggravated when I'm on an i
[quote]Do you think the feminist movement brought about this revolution? Fifty years ago women were expected to be submissive robots, which was highly unacceptable. Based on my observations the pendulum has swung.[/quote] I really don't know. The women in my family were always strong not submissive at all. They may have been perceived as bitches by strangers though. I think half of the issue is what is a bitch. If a bitch is just a strong women then fine call women bitches. If someone is b
[quote]Generally, if someone (but especially a guy) calls me a bitch I stop listening to whatever they have to say. Bitch is the default when people don't know how to address what is really going on. If it ever gets to the lesbian stage, I actually laugh. Total lack of creativity.[/quote] excellent - I agree wholeheartedly. I'm not a bitch just giftedly outspoken. ;)
I would never... flash my boobies anywhere - I'm not now nor have I ever been a girl gone wild. ask someone for their autograph. I would feel stupid. get my ears stretched vote Repub...oops scratch that - lol drive a hummer...I thought they were stupid before gas was $4. a gallon
As a Democrat (maybe former) I have been extremely disappointed with the amount that this congress has gotten accomplished. I really think the only thing that they accomplished was getting the minimum wage raised. The Declaration of Independence thing is stupid. That is our history. I thought that the objection was going to be the part of "endowed by our Creator" but no, it's because at the time of the Declaration those words only applied to white, wealthy lando
[quote]I think I should start looking online for 4th of July crafts and activities since I don't have a clue![/quote] I'm thinking about taking on a tie dye party to make red, white and blue t shirts. Too bad half an inch on the map wasn't closer in real life or you could bring your kiddos. Oh and you should totally get a cheapy charcoal grill. You HAVE to cook out on the Fourth. I think it's a law.
Did you notice any man behaving negatively during this trip? I just can't believe that Disney World was filled with horrible, mean women and sainted men who just patiently put up with the evil women's behavior. Maybe next time you should look for the moments of kindness in families instead of the bitchfests. If you're looking for something you will find it.
My boys want to get fireworks to set off. On July 3rd I am doing face painting at a fireworks extravaganza. It should be fun. Lots of red, white and blue designs. I just hope it's not too incredibly hot. I painted at the rodeo last week and almost died from the heat and bug bites. Ah summertime in Texas.
I considered getting a Marilyn piercing but wussed out. I am waiting until I find a new job, they decide they can't live without me then I will get all freaky on them - lol ;) . I do like both piercings. Too cool. I like the idea that someone can get an idea from the outside what's going on the inside which is to say that I'm not normal and don't want to be normal. Normal is boring. What I don't like is the ear stretching on guys - yuck, yuck, y
I didn't think I would change my husband when I married him but he has definately changed. I have changed too. I wouldn't want to be with someone who was frozen at the age, maturity and experience they were when I married them. I want them to keep growing and improving as I am trying to grow and improve myself too.
I bookmared it on delicious.
