Life or death-decided by internet poll
Please go to http://www.birthornot.com/ and vote for this couple to give birth to their baby...and if you're the praying sort, pray they realize how foul their actions are!
I can't believe life and death can be put up to popular vote like this.

keeping on schedule
Day 04 – What you ate today
Coffee, fruit, vegetarian nachos, soup, raw veggies, and a Weight Watchers ice cream bar.
Day 05 – Your definition of love
The feeling of completeness and belonging you get when being with another person just feels...right.
Day 06 – Your day
Was a day like any other, with an extra hour to boot.
Day 07 – Your best friend
My husband.

I'll get back to other blogging soon, I promise
Flu bugs have hit our household. But in other news...
"Bleep My Dad Says" is a comedy based on the site Shit My Dad Says. Basic premise, 20-something guy loses his job, moves back with his dad. Pretty typical story of the current economy. Said 20-something man's father is a foul-mouthed (obviously edited for television) wise-cracking retiree played by William Shatner. Hubby is a William Shatner fan (yes, he's a Trekkie). So I'll sometimes watch with him. It has funny moments.
The most recent episode, however, left me bothered enough to contemplate writing to the station to complain. Here is a brief summary.
The scene that disturbed me was towards the end, when Henry comes home from his "date" with a torn shirt and walking gingerly (as if to imply forced sodomy) after a night of rough and violent sexual activity.
And it was used not as a sobering realization that men can also be raped...but as a comedic device!
I'll repeat that: RAPE was used for COMEDY.
Are you mad yet? I sure am.

day 3
Day 03 – Your parents
My mom did the best she could, all things considered. My stepfather apparently liked young girls, myself included (that's for a whole 'nother post among other things).
If you can find my bio-dad, you're doing better than I ever did.

I promised!
Day 01 – Introduction
Who am I?
I am a wife, a friend, a daughter.
I am a pro-life liberal.
I am a survivor of sexual assault and childhood abuse.
I consider myself a feminist but am not well-received in most feminist circles.
You'll note I don't mention my racial background.
Day 02 – Your first love
I was tempted to write this about romantic relationships, I really was. But I don't define myself by those. I loved reading and used it as my escape--I could lose myself in a great story.
