Deaths of Pre-term Infants

This story makes me sick:

In Ocean City Maryland, 4 (FOUR) pre-term infants were found on and in the property of an area home.
Christy Freeman was admitted to the hospital for bleeding and the doctors discovered that she had recently given birth but there was no baby. An investigation uncovered the bodies of 4 children. The 26 week old baby was found under her bathroom sink.

This woman has 4 other children. Living.

If you are not going to carry your children to term, why have them? Why get pregnant? Is there a thrill in giving birth and then watching them struggle to live and slowly pass away?
If the babies were born alive, which they can determine, then that was murder. Which doctors can prove one of them was alive, and she killed it, but the police aren't offering details.

I don't understand people like this. And because of the abortion debate, which should have nothing to do with the case, and because some head doctor will say something like she is crazy, she will probably serve a teeny bit of time and then be free as a bird. Free to have sex, free to get pregnant, and free to do it all over again.

I can hardly stomach shit like this!

I can't help it.

These are my favorite chips. My mouth is on fire.

What is your favorite chip?

counting sheep just doesn't work

What do YOU do when you can't sleep?
It's about 11:15 pm here, and I can't catch a wink, let alone lie in my bed without stupid shit running through my head.
There is a thunderstorm that has lasted an hour taking place and has knocked out all my cable, so I can't even watch TV. It figures too...everynight I go to bed around 8:30 -9 ish, and the one night I want to stay up, there is nothing to do. My hubby went to bed about an hour ago.
Even if I tried to sleep, I would end up having dreams that annoy me... you know, the ones that repeat themselves through out the night.

If I could come up with a sure fire method to go to sleep right now, I would. Remember I am pregnant, so sleep isn't easy at the moment, and I can't down a bottle of Nyquil.

Sigh

Is a little Nip/Tuck wrong?

I was on the phone with a long time friend of mine the other day. We had gotten on the track of what our children might become, and I had indicated that my son might be a doctor. The friend then replied "As long as he wasn't a plastic surgeon, I would have to have a long stern talk with him"
My question to her was, What if he was a plastic surgeon to burn victims or clef lip or what ever. She said that would be okay as long as he didn't do boob jobs.
I don't think that all plastic surgeons do is boob jobs and tummy tucks. And if they did, so what. It's a profession, people want it, some need it. I would be proud of my son no matter what.

I wonder how many feel that a little Nip/Tuck is a bad thing, even though it's a personal choice. I used to think that I would never have plastic surgery b/c God made me the way he made me for a reason. That was until I had children. My stomach has been through a brutal battle. I fear that after Emma is born, I will have the stomach of an 80 year old. If I hadn't seen those shows where they show you how they do it...I might consider it. I might even still consider it. It depends on how bad it looks after I get fit again.
I see nothing wrong with it, but apparently my friend would probably look at me in disgust.

Do you believe?

(link to article ->) UFO sightings bring town to a standstill
"A crowd of 100 stunned stargazers brought a town centre to a standstill when five mysterious UFOs were spotted hovering in the sky.
Drinkers spilled out of pubs, motorists stopped to gawp and camera phones were aimed upwards as the five orbs, in a seeming formation, hovered above Stratford-Upon-Avon for half an hour.
The unidentified flying objects lit up the otherwise clear night sky above Shakespeare's birthplace in Warwickshire on Saturday. "

So apparently people are thinking that Extraterrestrials exist. Aliens... oooooooh oooooooooh

Just kidding. I really wonder if there are aliens out there. Can we really think that we are alone in the universe. There are so many solar systems out there, why isn't it possible to think that there is other life out there that has some how managed to be light years smarter than us and has figured out how to come here.
How many of you believe it.

I just hope that if there are aliens they are nothing like the ones in:
The Series "V"
Independence Day
Alien
The Sign
War of the Worlds

I want them to be purple and fuzzy and happy go lucky... kinda like Barney :)

Why not a tatoo on the forehead?

Microchips mulled for HIV carriers in Indonesia's Papua

So they are tossing around the idea of putting a micro-chip in the bodies of those infected with HIV. To track their behavior and make sure they are not infecting others with the disease.

I say, screw a microchip, isn't a tatoo on the forehead that says "INFECTED" less costly and more effective?

(that was sarcastic) Read the article here

You can't make this shiznitz up!

Okay ya'll, like, my years long love affair, is like , so totally over. I held out for the longest time, but girlfriend has a problem. I can't turn lesbot for this type of mess and give up the booty my hubby has steadily given me for 7 years. Sorry Britney, I must break up with you now.

I read this article this morning from TMZ.com

Found here It's too good not to read

But here is the entire article:

TMZ has learned that Britney's self-arranged photo shoot and interview with OK! Magazine was a complete disaster. We're told that the photos are so bad, execs at the magazine are, at this moment, trying to decide whether to report what actually happened -- or sanitize the truth to protect the pop train wreck.According to multiple sources, Britney's behavior during the interview was "nothing less than a meltdown." She was, according to our sources, "completely out of it" during the shoot. The photos are "so bad" we've learned, that to publish them could "kill her career." Apparently, Brit Brit's eyes rolled back in her head at one point, causing her to look half dead. Her mood, we're told, was extremely erratic. She took frequent bathroom breaks our source says, and each time she returned her mood would change. She was also completely paranoid during the entire interview, fearing at one point the ceiling was about to cave in on her. Out of control y'all!

We've also learned that Brit had some issues with hygiene on the set as well. At one point, Britney ordered up some fried chicken to munch on. We're told after she chowed down, she wiped her hands on a several thousand dollar Gucci dress that she was wearing for the shoot, staining it with grease. Yuck! One of her dogs also needed some assistance in the housebreaking department. Our on-set spy says that the dog pooped all over the floor, and Brit used (what else?) -- a Chanel dress to clean it up! How trashtastic!As for how Brit looked for the photos, another nightmare. We've learned that OK! hired two of the best hair and makeup artists in L.A. to transform the once-bald beauty into something more presentable, but she wasn't havin' none of that. She refused to let the hired help touch her, opting instead for her "skanky friends" to do her hair and makeup. No wonder she always looks so fantastic!

And if you're wondering where her mom/publicist/lawyer/friend/ANYONE was to help her out, we're told that even her cousin Alli (who until recently was working as her personal assistant) couldn't deal, and is "done" with Miss Spears.

We'll see when OK! hits the stands this week -- if they actually have the balls to print the truth about what happened. We're guessing they don't!A call to Brit's rep was not immediately returned. A rep for OK! would not discuss the upcoming issue.

My husband's drive through order

"Welcome to Chick-fil- A can I help you?

"A large lemonade and uh.... Miller lite"

"Can you repeat that sir?"

"A large lemonade and uh....Miller lite"

"A large lemonade and what was the 2nd item?"

"Uh Miller Lite"

(breif pause + laughter) "That will be a dollar fort eight, please drive around to the window"

Husband pulls up and teenager pops out the window. Then he says pointing to himself "Hey, the lemonade was for me...(then pointing at me) .. the beer was for her!"

I think we have all done the drive through order fun before. I once ordered 12, 12 peice's with a side of watermelon, greens and gizzards to go with it. When they told me they didn't sell watermelon, greens or gizzards... I flipped out and asked them what they did with the gizzards.. cuz dem were some perfectly good gizzard they'd be throwing in da trash..ya'll" After much frustration (not mine, but the cashier) I sped off laughing all the way!

Anyone else do anything like that?

silly question

Why do they call farting ... 'Cutting the Cheese' ?

There are a ton more of things with different names that I don't understand... Like

Piece of Pie .. for you know what

Pee like a race horse...

Anyone got anymore they don't understand or have explanations for.

The cutting the cheese one is really pondering to me though.

Not a big fan of Newt But he has a point (funny)

Getting sexual ...sorry

So Hypersonic said I haven't posted today, so here goes. Only thing I could really talk about today. You will have to forgive me b/c I am hormonal in the 8th month so I have sex on the brain!
So another friend of mine is pregnant also, she is only in the first trimester and has been banned from sex for right now. She isn't sure when she will get clearance to do so. I understand that sex isn't always the easiest of accomplishments when you are pregnant..geesh, it's like a circus act for me and hubby right now since my belly is soooo ginormous. So I asked her...will you still pleasure him? She said she didn't know. So I had to ask, will you at least hand him the bottle of lotion?
Some of my friends freak out if they catch their significant others in the "moment". Personally...I don't care unless I had been planning on a shagging that evening. I wonder how many care about the personal pleasures.
In my younger years we had 'toys' but I felt they took away from our intimacy, so I don't have any now. But for the men, it is so much easier to do and I think more of a temptation. Some of my friends can't handle that bit.

3 posts in one day....woo hoo!

Setting your kid up for popularity!

If you want your baby to be the most popular baby on the block...and you want to ensure that he or she has a ton of friends in the future, and of course you want your baby to be stylin at all times....just buy them the Bumper Bonnet....your kid will look like a real winner!!!

I couldn't help it folks. This came out of one of my favorite catalogs and I almost died with laughter. I know that some parents might feel it's the safest thing out there to protect their kids noggin...however, I don't think any of them read this blog !!!!

Two stories in the news

First.
Don't know if you know the story about the 4 girls that just graduated that day, swerved onto on coming traffic and all four were killed when they hit a truck head on. But turns out, the driver had a cell that was in use at the time of the accident ... text messaging.
The article is here.

Text messaging....while driving...major no no. This probably could have all been avoided. It's really heart-breaking.

Second
Parents claim internet addiction for the neglect of their children. Here is an idea. When you have an 22 month old and 11 month old, and plenty of food in the home, and no real good reason for the fact that they were near death b/c you never fed or gave them water.... BLAME THE INTERNET. The story is here.

Bad tipping vs good tipping

I took my son to breakfast today. My boss has taken off out of town every month for like the last 5 months and I have been alone in the office. So I figured...why not sleep in today with my kiddo, snuggle a bit and then take him out for some choco chip pancakes. So that is what we did.
I couldn't help notice that our waitress was being run by a group of 4 men. 3 old buggers and one younger guy. When she left the check, I noticed that the oldest guy threw down a dollar for a tip and walked out.

I don't care how old you are... you know the way... I think it's more of an insult to leave a dollar than nothing at all.

I am curious on the tipping standard out there. Most people know it's an unspoken rule to tip 15%. Which here is simple to calculate b/c Maryland's tax is 5%. So it's tax times 3. If you are a great waitress you get 20%. If it's Michael and I on a romantic night with out our son in an expensive restaraunt, we will let you know..we don't get out often, treat us great and we will treat you to atleast 25%. Those nights are special to us, so we are willing to pay alittle more for them.

How do you tip?
And I am also curious if the age generations get different service. Michael and I often get shafted b/c we look young and stroll up in there with a kid. So that to wait staff means more of a mess. And often, how it happens I'll never know, they serve our food before my sons. I won't eat it. I would never eat my food in front of my starving two year old and he has nothing. If it goes cold, I will say something. I don't think that is too harsh.
When it's me and Tyler alone, we always get treated kindly.

It's an idea

This is hubby. In conversation with hubby, we have tossed out the idea of having him take over my blog for a bit when I have the baby.

Things he will talk about:

Steroids & baseball

Tax money waste

New Baby

Cars

Yankees

and he might tell the occasional joke.

I think it's a smashing idea...! He is very passionate when he finds a topic. I have held off on the steriod topic, but he is chalk full of pissed off about it.

Another Interesting Marital Conversation

So I say to hubby... "We can't buy this toilet paper anymore, it doesn't last long enough and I am always changing the roll". (You know not enough sheets per roll.)

His reply " Well stop sticking it in the water before you wipe your butt!"

WTF???? That is my husband's idea of a funny joke. So we continue to rag on each other. And I say "hey maybe when you get your vasectomy, your hair will grow back!" (they say it's a testosterone issue you know)

His reply "Maybe you'll get a d**k in the eye"!
"Why would you put it there?" I say... And start laughing uncontrollably, exclaiming to him how silly his comebacks are.

Then we go back to the toilet paper issue and I say....you know, if I dipped the paper in the water that would be really dirty. If it were only pee pee water, maybe biologically it wouldn't be, b/c that is a natural mechanism to rid your out extremities of germs. That is why vultures legs are white. They stand in dead carcass all day, then when they pee pee, it goes all over their legs to kill the germs with the ammonia.

Husband gets a puzzled look on his face...and doesn't know how to respond.

This has been another public service announcement from the Little's Marriage! (sick I know, but I couldn't help it)

Wednesday Humor

WHY CONDOMS COME IN BOXES OF 3, 6, AND 12
A man walks into a drug store with his 8-year old son. Theyhappen to walk by the condom display, and the boy asks, "What are these, Dad? To which the man as a matter-of-fact replies, "Those are called condoms, son. Men use them for safe sex."
"Oh I see," replied the boy pensively. Yes, I've heard of that in health class at school." He looks over the display and picks up a package of 3 and asks, "Why are there 3 in this package?"
The dad replies, "Those are for high school boys, ONE forFriday, ONE for Saturday, and ONE for Sunday."
"Cool" says the boy. He notices a 6 pack and asks, "Then who are
these for?"
"Those are for college men," the dad answers, TWO for Friday,TWO for Saturday, and TWO for Sunday."
"WOW!" exclaimed the boy, then who uses THESE?" he asks, pickingup a 12 pack.
With a sigh and a tear in his eye, the dad replied, "Those are for married men. ONE for January, ONE for February, ONE for March....."

Management 101
Eddie wanted desperately to have sex with this really cute, really hot
girl in his office.... but she was dating someone else. One day Eddie
got so frustrated that he went to her and said, "I'll give you a $100 if
you let me have sex with you..."

The girl looked at him, then said, "NO."

Eddie said, "I'll be real fast. I'll throw the money on the floor, you bend
down, and I'll finish by the time you've picked it up."

She thought for a moment and said that she would consult with her
boyfriend... so she called him and explained the situation.

Her boyfriend says, "Ask him for $200, pick up the money really fast. He won't even be able to get his pants down." She agreed and accepts
the proposal.

Over half an hour goes by and the boyfriend is still waiting for his
girlfriend's call. Finally, after 45 minutes the boyfriend calls and asks
what happened....?

Still breathing hard, she managed to reply, "The bastard had all nickels!"

Are you the type of person that is always available for your friends and family? And always has to bend to make others happy, sacraficing your own needs? Do you sometimes find that when it comes to really important stuff happening in YOUR life, others just don't pay as much attention?
But if you didn't do something spectacular for them...you would never hear the end of it.

What makes some of us so selfless and others able to overlook the importance of our feelings, wants, needs and expectations?

Do you ever find yourself just so tired of working endlessly for everything you have...even just the simplest of kindness from others? And are often overlooked as if maybe you weren't AS important?

Life = series of events = definition of being

I was watching my husband the other day carry our son on his shoulders. Before he lifted my son into the air, he said, "Do you want daddy to carry you on his shoulders?" My son eagerly lifted his arms and Michael reached out "Come to Daddy". My husband couldn't have been more sexier than he was in that moment. It's a moment that is the simplest, but one I will remember forever, no matter how small or seemingly unimportant it may have been.

I started thinking, if my life were to flash before my eyes, what series of events would I see.
-The day my father surprised me with my first bike at the firehouse and taught me how to ride.
-The day my sister told me I could fly and I ended up squished between two bunk beds.
-The day I got such a large splinter in my butt cheek I had to go to the hospital and have it removed, my crush was there with a broken arm.
- The day I met my best friend Jessica
- My first car accident, second, third & fourth.
-Appearing before a judge b/c of my forth car accident
-The day I ran from home after a huge blow out with my parents
- The night I made love, to my first love
- The night my first love broke my heart
- The night I first kissed my husband
- The day my grandmother died
-The day I sought help for depression
-The first time I felt God
- The one moment I was left alone on my wedding day, and then 5 minutes later seeing my husband at the end of the isle
-The moment I saw my first born
- The day my mother flung herself at me, the moment I knew she would be the one person in this world who truly loved me
- The moment my brother told me he was gay
-The moment we invaded Iraq and I felt helpless for my brother's life in Baghdad
- The moment I saw my little girl on the sonogram
-The moment I found my husband sexy, just because he was an awesome daddy.

There are a million more. But I thought I would share a few.
Anyone else care to share?

Baby Watch!

Sorry I haven't posted. My son has been sick for a week with a nasty ear infection and Monday night we had contractions 5 minutes apart for a hour and 45 minutes. I was a bit scared. Tuesday we had two doctor appointments, one high risk and one regular OBG. Well our little girl has desended into birthing position. The doctor warned me to stay hydrated, stay away from caffine and take it easy. He said it is way too early for her to arrive.
That said we scheduled the c-section for August 16th at 10:10 am. IF I don't go into labor before then. I am terrified that I will be alone with my son and my water will break. But I know that we have someone looking out for us 'up' there.
Now I think the clock is going to tick by ever so slowly.

Intelligent Conversation

So hubby and I were having the conversation about what it would be like if werewolves and vampires were real. If you had the choice to be one or the other, which would you choose.

Conversation weighed the pros and cons
Werewolves
Only during a full moon...not all the time like a vampire
Don't have to hide from the sun
Only have to kill when the moon is full
Then again when you kill, it could be quite messy
It might hurt a bit to turn into the werewolf form, and you never know where you might end up naked when the spell is over. The cost of clothing could run up a bit too.
Doggy style would really be the only style now wouldn't it.
You could possibly be able to lick your own crotch. Pro/Con you decide.

Vampire
You have to kill every night to be nourished. You really only drink blood, no mixing it up with a veggie or baked potato
You could never be in the sun again.
You would be very pale.
Although Vamps are supposed to be seductive creatures
Never seen a vamp wriggle in pain turning into a bat
Do you really have to sleep in a coffin?
You would never die... but that could be a pro and a con. If you had friends that weren't vamps, then they would all die, but you wouldn't.
You would never grow old :)
You would never again be able to do your hair b/c you couldn't see your own reflection.

Hubby chose to be a werewolf. I chose to be a Vampire. I wonder what our children would have looked like.

Anyone else have pros and cons
