I'm reading The Time Traveler's Wife right now. I can't decide whether I like it or not. I'm reading it for a book club.

Hello...hello....hello
is there anybody out there? I've been a bad, bad blogger. I pretty much blew off September. I have a good excuse. My birthday was on the 18th and Mary Jane's was on the 28th. I was so blown away by being both 38 years old and being the mother of an 11 year old that I had no time for blogging. T...
Well,"none",I would be more than happy to engage in civil discourse about some of the problems you mentioned, but since you commented anonymously that will be impossible. I would give much more credence to your opinions if you had chosen to post a real name and a real email address.

Mean people suck
I had an encounter with a Very Mean Person today. I went to the hospital today to visit my mother. She had back surgery yesterday. She has been having execrating pain in her hip and leg for the past month or two. After being given several diagnoses it was determined that she has degenerative dis...
Sorry I got my Jonas Brothers mixed-up. Thank you for pointing that out. My mind can only keep track of so much trivia. Plus, I'm not a 10 year old girl.

Who would you pick.....
...Kevin, Joe or Nick? I took Mary Jane and Lila to see The Jonas Brothers Movie at the library today. Let's just say thank God it was free. 75 minutes of pure, unadulterated JoBros (with short interludes by Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato). Kevin, as I understand it, is engaged. Nick is quite th...
Robin-
I can't look up the quote for you. I have already returned the book to the library. Sorry.

Wishful Drinking
I read Carrie Fisher's memoir Wishful Drinking today. It was a quick and easy read at 161 pages, and I couldn't put it down. I checked it out of the library around 2:30 and finished it at 10:00. That's right folks, I read during Monday Night Raw. That's practically unheard of. I already knew t...

Here is one example:
At the Council of Macon, in 584 AD, in Lyons, France, forty-three Catholic bishops and twenty men representing other bishops, debated what must have surely been the most compelling issue of the day:
"Are Women Human?"
After arguing the point, the bishops voted. thirty-two, yes; thirty-one, no. Women were declared human by one vote.
I hope you read the post that I wrote today. I was feeling very angry with God. I'm over it.

Keeping it real to the point where I will offend most of my readers
For many years I have struggled with the idea of patriarchy. For a while I really threw myself into the idea of living a life dominated by patriarchy. I desperately wanted Bill to be the spiritual head of the household. I wanted to be completely submissive to him. Luckily for me Bill didn't buy ...
Thanks for the book suggestion. I will look into it.
I was so worried I would get angry emails about this post. Thanks for being so nice :)

I didn't realize it was already exam time! At least they weren't truants. I suppose I shouldn't have been so cruel. I was once an 18 year old girl myself.

So we were, like, at the neighborhood pool today
or the neverhood pool Will prefers to call it. It was pretty quiet-- two couples with preschoolers, an older couple, us and two teenage girls. I was seriously not trying to eavesdrop on the teenagers, but they were talking so loud I couldn't help but overhear them. I'm pretty sure they said the ...
Katherine video taped the whole affair. I'll post it as soon as she gets it on YouTube.

A wedding
We had a momentous occasion at the Fairfull homestead today. My youngest (by 54 minutes) child got hitched. The bride and groom have been engaged for some time now. After living together for the past 5 years James finally decided to make an honest woman out of Jenny. That's right, folks. James ...
That first tattoo was a sun with Celtic knot work in it. If I can get him to pose for me I will post pics of his tattoos.

First off I want to give a hearty thanks to Gene...
First off I want to give a hearty thanks to Gene for explaining how the Internet was created. I'm ashamed to admit that I never thought about that before. I knew it was here, and I knew I used it, but I never wondered where it came from. Bill really started wanting a tattoo when I was pregnant w...
