As the cringing words echo in my head over and over and over again....
You've been booted, you'll need to pay $__ before I can release it....
I can't help but feel this is someone else's fault....WALMART!!!! Why do you come to me to die? WHY do you come to ME to die????

I thought I got Mono once...turned out I was just bored...
Thought about babies today; thought about how they all look the same when they come out; thought about some of the similarities of newborn babies:
1) they are all gooey upon exit
2) they all smell like feet
3) they all cry
4) they all have scrunched up faces like sweet little ole ladies
I'm sure there are more, and I'm sure I'll recognize them as time goes, but how do parents tell their babies apart from the other ones? I've heard horror stories of how babies got mixed up in the hospital and taken home with the wrong families. Could you imagine the horror of finding out you grew up with the wrong people? My gosh! Imagine growing up with a crappy family that abuses you, only to find out that your real family are rich and loving. I would hate life, and I would try and make everyone around me as miserable as I could.
My parents (at least I think they are my real parents) told me that they couldn't find me for a couple of hours because I was lost amongst the sea of similar babies. They only found me because of the God given wart on my face. I used to hate that mole before it was removed, but I never thought that It could have been the means of saving me....
My boss and I talked today about having a baby...no we aren't planning on begetting and conceiving together! She mentioned to me that she has been feeling pressured to have a baby. Her and her husband have been married for two years; she feels like she wants to go out and experience the world before dando a luz, but her family members think its time to start popping out the babes. I got to thinking about all the pressures of having children that Cali and I face, and I realized that we don't have any! We have great family members that know we have better things to do than take care of babies, and they haven't given us a hard time about it at all. Even after 5 1/2 years (way beyond the norm), we still feel like they respect our decision to wait; for that we are thankful to them.

Who art thou???
People can be unpleasant, right? We are not all going to agree on the same things; not always going to share similar opinions. That's what makes us function in a society in which our freedoms are abundant. Gotta be grateful for that. There are also those people that make every effort possible to try and dissuade your decisions when they feel an overwhelming concern for you. Who are they? ALL OF US! I'm for that! I get it! When I have a teenage daughter, I doubt she will have the experience and enough rational ability to understand that "Spike" with the tattoos all over his face is probably not the most ideal mate at her age. I'm sure I will do everything I can to deter her from seeing him.
Then there are those who feel their lot in life is to belittle and derail your ideas, faith, opinions, and views in such mean ways. They have spent a substantial amount of time "discovering" something about your way of thinking, that they feel the need to inform you of it. First, their minds aren't functioning right if they use destructive techniques to try and sway you, so why would one ever feel their views are even rational enough to believe? Second, the information they get most likely comes from inadequate sources that's sole objective and agenda are to destroy what others think (Socialistic views?? bordering on fascism?? In a weird way, right??)
I think society would function much better if people allowed others the freedoms that they are entitled to without thoughts of skewing them to match their own narcissistic beliefs. So for all of you who feel the need to step into others' lives unwelcome, keep your misery-laden, hate-mongering, "jihadistic" propaganda to yourselves...it's unnecessary.
