Why solve problems that exist when we can make up ones to solve?
Out of all of the possible problems that a woman might have with birth control pills, I think the fact that they are not chewable is pretty far down on the list. Like after complaints such as the foil for the packaging should be easier to break open and the fact that the warning sticker on them says "Do not use if you are pregnant or plan to be ( Read more... ) -

Rockin' and Rollin"
Eric and I went to see the Charm City Roller Girls last night. It was the Mobtown Maulers (CCRG's All-Star travel team) versus a team from Virginia. Mobtown basically killed them, but it was still a really good match ( Read more... )
