When someone posts something on a site that has a comment feature, such as You Tube or LJ, should they not expect opinions that both agree and disagree with their own? And when ( Read more... )

What kind of poison is your personality?
Strychnine
Found in countless species of plants, your power is vast, quick, and powerful. Entire armies have been defeated once you've laced their drinking water.

My mom found a lump this morning. She went to the doctor first thing and had a mammogram scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. The lump is soft and round as opposed to hard and asymmetrical, so it’s most likely not cancer, but she’s still pretty freaked out and has spent the morning dragging me around on errands to distract herself; which is okay ( Read more... )
