The Supreme Court upheld the ban on partial-birth abortions. Congrats. Now…

I’ve already stated my position on abortion. But can you please explain to me why there isn’t an equal amount of money on preventing SPONTANEOUS termination (also known as miscarriage)? What about stillborn babies? Don’t they count too?

I realize it’s [...]

Dear Mr. Miller and Mr. Marsh:

Stepped in it good this time didn’t you? I’m not buying any of the crap you’re spewing, so maybe you need to just hush. And? Step off. All you’re doing is making it worse. (At least, you are in my eyes. And as a potential [...]

I drove Alannah over to a friend’s house for a sleepover; it’s the first time she’s slept over at this particular friend’s house. I went to high school with her Mom, though we didn’t hang out then.

The boys wake me up with the sun. I’m “required” to sit on the sofa between the two of them (thank god for wireless technology), and although I love SpongeBob, I’m just not in the mood [...]

The ever-so-tardy followup to Where I Was, and subtitled “Where I still am”

I tried to duplicate the same pose as before, but wasn’t all that successful (there was a photographer/subject conflict). This was taken back in December 2006. For some reason, I don’t photograph well; the camera catches my face at an odd [...]

I know I mentioned earlier that my prof expected me to crank out a poem in four days. That was honestly not my issue. The problem is that she wanted it in ballad or sonnet form – and her classroom lecture made it sound a LOT more complicated than it actually was. [...]

You will most definitely be missed. Thank you for leaving behind some kick-ass reading material, and for having the balls to NOT chew some lead when I’m sure you wanted to.

Two of my friends on My Supah Secret Single Mom’s Message Board have recently undergone emergency gallbladder surgery. After hearing a bit about the things they were dealing with, I whipped out my incredimous Google Skillz and looked it up.
