Pain, lots of pain.

I am trying to not complain as much as I used to because no one cares but I am in such an inordinate amount of pain right now the rules have changed. Hfc, this HURTS. It's just like a stomach pain, maybe its my appendix, I still have it and maybe I'll have to get it out... that'd be an adventure... Anyways, I really wish I could phone a friend and rant to them (they rarely care) but it's too late for Sera and Jess and Teddy doesn't like it when I phone him (loooooong story) so I'm sitting here telling my avid world wide web fans. Cause you know I have a whole wack of 'em, yep they check in everyday multiple times just to read what I say because... they have no life? *smiles* I have math to finish so I'll thrill my readers later but until then peace out y'all

Oh come on

Honestly. This law is giving couples the choice, both parents work, or one stays at home to raise the children. Before, if the couples didn't have split income, they could pay more than $5000 in extra taxes, now, Harper is introducing a law that gives couples the choice. Stay home or go to work. Some couples because of their financial situation didn't have that choice because of the extra taxes.
This isn't forcing women to stay at home, this is giving those that want to the choice. Some women will take advantage of it, some won't. So the Liberal Women's Caucus can get over it because *gasps* I know this is a terrifying thought, but some women don't want to work! Crazy I know but for some strange cataclysmic reason, they don't! So stop trying to force women into places they don't want to be and suck it up. This is taking us forward not back 40 years.

Duceppe being... Duceppe?

Oh come on buddy, give it up already. Harper is smarter than any of us give him credit for, he didn't succumb to any mind games Duceppe might have been playing, he did this on his terms and he's going to continue to do so, so suck it up princesses. *smiles* And that concludes my completely unbiased assessment of the situation...

Have we really sunk to the level of being told to have confidence in the lottery??????? No really, that's a legitimate question, here's a thought! Why don't we just oh I don't know ban the lottery... *gasps* That's crazy talk! Noooo, cause if I ever suggested that to... anyone who supports the lottery (is it just me or is that a very wacked sentence?) I would immediately be lectured on goodness knows what. Probably something like "That would be a stab to the economic balloon" or something to that effect.
Here's a thought! Maybe, with all that money people are saving from not buying lottery tickets, they could put towards, savings, college for their kids, the new family car. There's a whole HOST of things they could do with the money! Most of them going right back into the main stream money market, the balloon wouldn't be deflated, there would be a new pump installed. I mean for crying out loud people, why are politians telling us to have faith in the lottery?
Its gambling, that's right, gambling. You know people can get addicted to that? There are some people that will spend their entire life savings on slot machines or poker tables or whatever else people do at casinosm, yup. My mom told me about someone who faked cancer to feed her addiction to gambling, yeah. Think about that for a bit.

Quote from Father of Wisdom

Father Of Wisdom said...

Ok... thats is very easy to explain. See when your kids are in trouble you get this kind of power you never had before. Number one: because its your kids. Number two: You would do anything for them, and Number three: you love them with all your heart and you cant let them get hurt. Parents would take a bull for their kids. I mean there the world to them. Now so parents maybe not seem that way. But wait till someone is holding a gun to there head, and you'll see how fast they'll move. Its a nartal thing, even we do it to. We do that with friends and family. If someone is in trouble you'll help them, and it also makes you feel good to.


I understand that FoW, I was just happy that it made the news, just because it's explainable doesn't not make it a miracle. I know pretty much 99% of all parents would risk their lives for their children, but we rarely hear about it on the news. I was happy that we were hearing about it and praising God that things like that happen.

Random thought inspired by Father of Wisdom

Looking up love in the dictionary rarely does any good for anything but looking up names meaning love helps a little. I did just that and there are a surprising number of stories in Greek mythology that tell of one "person" being in love with another, yet their love is not returned. They usually waste away in their love until only a small part of them remains, like their voice in the case of Echo (a nymph with a speech impediment, thanks to Hera she could only echo what other people said) who fell in love with Narcissus who did not love her back. She pined and pined until nothing remained of her except her voice.
And in the case of Klytie (an ocean nymph) who fell in love with Helios (the sun god) who did not love her back, she pined and pined until she turned into a heliotrope flower whose head follows the sun.
Unrequited love can make people do some pretty stupid things. On a more contemporary note, refer to My Best Friend's Wedding, Juli does absolutely every thing she can to win the love of Michael back but she never does. She drives herself (and a few other people) crazy, breaks a few laws and hurts a lot of people and she still doesn't succeed, Michael marries Kim and they move on.
The drastic measures people go to to get someone to love them are rarely rewarded. And if they are, its in hollywood or it wasn't because of the drastic measures they took. They were already loved or something else happened.
*sighs* I'm in a very deep thinking point in my life so expect more of this... *smiles*

Presidential debates

I don't have T.V. (any, not one channel) but Mom is crazy about West Wing so we buy the seasons, well she just bought the 7th season and we watched the episode of the debate between Santos and Vinnick and it was really interesting! I'm going to have to go to my grandparent's house when debates come up in Canadian and American elections because they are really cool. And if you understand politics (which I... sort of do) then you can really have a good time. Too bad my friends aren't too interested... oh well. My poppa is smart and understands this stuff so I'll talk to him. Anyway, I like conservatives, even before they got elected, I liked them before that, and my affection was only boosted after this last election when Martin made a complete buffoon out of himself... *smiles* ahhh, good times watching his screwed up interviews. Televised debates are good check them out sometime. Well, I have shakespeare to get back to which seems so dull compared to the running of a country... oh well. I'll talk to y'all later when I find a good news clip!

Can you imagine the pain? The trauma? No, you probably can't, I can't either and I don't much care to. That man and woman should be put behind bars for LIFE. Longer. The death sentence is too kind. I know I sound like a raving, cruel lunatic but I know people who have suffered at the hands of these kinds of people and you do not just get over something like that. People who commit acts like that need to be analysed to see is they show any remorse and if not, given life sentences or death penalties. That's it, that's all. All is all, that's all all is. It's not that easy but it should be.

Algebra

You know in algebra, when you have troubles with one lesson, leave them alone and go on, chances are you missed something.
Like in... oh say a video game. You get most of the "tokens" or whatever you have to get but not all of them, these tokens unlock certain capabilities or places that you need to progress, well when you don't get those and try to go on, you don't get very far until you go back and find the things you missed. If only life were that simple, you forgot to learn a particular lesson in a particular situation that would've helped you later on in life. Unfortunately we can't just go back to that particular situation and learn that lesson, but life has an advantage to gaming, things happen again, as the saying goes - History repeats itself over and over again. We can experience thing many different times, you can usually only get those tokens in one place on a video game. Well, that's my thought of the day, now for the news...

You know, waiting for someone to email you if you don't know when or even if they will is usually fruitless and disapointing. Not that I have any experience in the matter, noooo. Not me... mm-mm.

Guitar playing

Is infinitely easier than song writing but it hurts your fingers waaaay more *winks*. I used to take guitar lessons but we moved and his wife had a baby so things just kind of fell out of wack. Yeah, but I dragged out the guitar and the lesson book and started picking. Nothing special, just little one note things on the first and second string. My fingers kind of recgnized the tune after awhile and while it sounded really bad, it seemed to give me a feeling of empowerment. Well, I'm going to go nurse my fingers and maybe practice piano or voice...

Peace out y'all

Julius Caesar

It's a fairly good play. I'm only on... Act II Scenes 3 & 4 but its interesting. We've just found out that Artemidorus knows of the conspiracy and is trying to warn Caesar. Whether it will work or not is still up for grabs. Nothing that makes me really think yet but I have a feeling it will come soon. *sighs* I only held out until 9:30 before I checked until my email, but its a start because normally I check it first thing. At any rate, I have to write an essay for Monday too, but I have the craft weekend I must attend (third annual you know) so it'll have to be completed either today or Monday.

I was talking with someone this morning who was sorry that the britney/kevin escapade didn't work out. If you know who I am talking about then grieve for it is distressing that we can remember the names of people we have never met yet we cannot remember
the names of people we see every week... At any rate, she said she was sorry, I said I didn't expect it to last anyway and it's about time! Things like marriage and death and childbirth were not meant to be broadcasted to all everywhere to be gossiped and quarreled about. She said "They're celebrities, it's not like they can help it." to which I say yeeeees they can.
How do you think there are VERY few photos circulating of Angelina Jolie's baby? She didn't let the public eye into her personal life, she didn't broadcast it but made it a private affair to be cherished my her and those closest to her. Not gossiped and cackled about by others.
Anyway, just my opinion, leave a comment!

The Weird People

I have like... seven friends that I met at camp right, well we all have each other's emails... sorry just spilled root beer on my shirt... okay, so seven friends ALL with each other's emails. Well every time we send out mass emails with little poems or stuff like this -

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*LoveWish*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Every night, someone thinks about you before they go to sleep. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way. The only reason someone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you. There are at least 2 people in this world that would die for you. You mean the world to someone. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you. When you make the biggest mistake ever,something good comes from it. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look again. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget the rude remarks.



I get like four copies of the email sent BACK to me. Even if I was the one who sent it! Mainly because no one checks the TO: lists. So it gets sent to all of the same people like 5 times. *shakes head* It's kind of funny sometimes. I just sent out one such email and It's already been forwarded BACK to me. Tomorrow there'll probably be three more copies. And I don't make friends with bimbos that often either! So either they don't know HOW to check, or they just like sending emails... back to the person who sent them originally.

While I don't make friends with bimbos very often, I do make friends with fairly odd people which is okay because I am a fairly strange person...

Something to think about - It used to be that you got called weird because you were a little off beat according to their interpretations. Nowadays, everyone wants to be weird because it's in. The thing most people don't understand is that they all moved themselves from one group into another group. But they're all still in the same group... *smiles* ah the ironies of life...
