So yesterday I had my first "real" day of training at my super-fun new job. Hopefully it turns out to be superfun, anyway. It seems like it will be, except for the pantyhose. (ick ( Read more... )

An Indiana mother recently accompanied her daughter and her daughter's boyfriend to one of Indiana's Planned Parenthood clinics, but they unwittingly walked into a so-called "crisis pregnancy center" run by an anti-abortion group, one that shared a parking lot with the real Planned Parenthood clinic and was designed expressly to lure Planned ( Read more... )

And now I've hit a lull--more than an hour until I have to be somewhere, with nothing to do. And I don't know what to do with myself.

Wow. I just had an amazing weekend and, now, an amazing night, with amazing people. Yay! Today (and all 15 minutes left of it) is my 21st birthday, which I celebrated, as the occasion calls for, with friends, family, and Star Wars.
