Wow, it's been a super busy couple of weeks. Trip planning, writing, cleaning, car repairs, births, birthdays, writing, trip planning. Umm, what type of grad school sets their deadline for November 2? Don't they know that I will be gone for all of September and October? Why must they torture me into producing an entire portfolio in two weeks ( Read more... )

This weekend consisted of a)buying pretty underwear b)getting punched in the eye by a three year old while watching Beauty and the Beast (more fun than it sounds!) c)staying up all Sunday night to finish a book because like 175 pages before the end they tell me that the main character is going to die and, "How does he die? How does he die?!!!" d ( Read more... )

Seriously? Be sure to read the part about gay marriage being grouped with espionage and treason. Why, why, why is this still an issue when there are so many many many other things that we should be focusing on? What a waste of energy. How does witholding that money make anyone's life better? Does it make the bigot housewife's life 20% better ( Read more... )
