There WILL be a squiddy at the and of this.

Pictures to follow.

WTF?! Who Made These Nasty Things?!

EWWWW!




YEAH...like these are appropriate for your preteen girl?

Honestly, what kind of a world do we live in?

Am I simply a bit of a prude because I literally feel like sicking-up when I see stuff like this?

I wonder if these nasty things were made by the same lovely company that sold thongs for girls (as in elementary school age) to the GAP?

I'm glad Wal*Mart (Still Evil none-the-less) had the decency to pull them off the shelves but it makes me ill to think that they put them out for sale in the first place.

Oh...and while I am at it...How are you enjoying those Christmas Decorations you got at Wal*Mart?

Living in Shadows

I finally deleted my Myspace account because out of all my "friends" no one actually TALKED to me.

I had that account so I could talk to friends and over time, realized that I don't really have any that want me around.

The people that I thought were my friends I really haven't seen in years.

It's really depressing to be honest.

I try to talk to them, but they have no time or inclination to talk to me anymore.
It got to the point where checking my Myspace account was about the same to going home day after day, week after week, to an answering machine that no one calls.
I figure after 2 years if anyone wanted to talk to me, they would have, so it was just time for me to go.

It is no secret that I have been battling depression all of my life.
The holidays are NOT helping matters any.
Since 1997 the holidays are a living hell for me.
That was the year I lost my husband, home, and business in the same week and ended up living in a van for nearly a year.

Nothing like being homeless for the holidays.

I have never gotten over it.

Sick thing is, I was working a full time job the whole time I was homeless, I was just one of those people that fell through the cracks.
No one wants to rent a room to someone that doesn't already have one.
You would think after 10 years of not being homeless I would have gotten over it, but I haven't.

I have had that unwanted feeling ever since.
It is the root of a lot of my anxiety.
If I dare to find happiness it will get taken away in the blink of an eye.

Christmas is not a happy time for me.

So it's a Crime if...

Apparently our government thinks it is not a hate crime if you beat the hell out of a gay person so long as they are white, but if they are black, latino, Asian, purple with green spots it IS a HATE CRIME!!!

Lame.

Last I checked when someone is stomping on your head, they hate you.

Why is it a heineous crime if the person is straight but perfectly acceptable if they are gay?

Do we really need to micro-manage this country to death in order for people to act like humane beings?

Are people truly THAT homophobic?

Why?

Oh.

That's right.

Religion.

Isn't despising a whole group of people because they happen to date their same sex a bit of a crime of hatred as well?

The Chimp Speaks

As an American I am ashamed every time I hear The Chimp in Charge open up his gaping maw.
Out of all the human beings in this nation, THAT imbicile is the best we have to offer up to lead us?
THAT fool is our face to the world??
No wonder this country is a planetary joke.
I don't blame Iran for arming themselves to the teeth...look at their neighbors.
Do you think they can defend their country with water balloons and pillow fights?
I don't want to keep dumping money into Iraq while they do nothing to regain control of their own nation.
THAT is how the terrorists win.
It really is brilliant.
Let the US spend themselves into the poor house, THEN you invade not with planes and psychobunnies, but financially.
Turn the mighty US into a third world country...and the real kicker is, we are doing it to ourselves already.
Our education system is a joke.
We have standardized our kids so they fit the lowest common denominator.
Jobs are being outsourced out of the country while toxic products are being imported by the megaton.
Walmarts around the country have crushed Mom and Pops right out of business so that in many communities, there really is no other choice but to shop and work there.
We have lost our national pride because we produce nothing to be proud of anymore.
People are losing their homes because they bought a Mansion when they could barely afford a shack, yet they take no personal responsibility for their actions and expect Uncle Sugar to bail them out.
In a short 7 years we have gone from having a budget surplus to being deeper in debt as a nation then we have ever been in history.
I think our Chimp in Charge has a lot of damn gall telling ANYONE how to run their country when I look at what is happening to my own, and if I had the neighbors that Iran does I would be locked and loaded as well.
I don't give a shit about Iran, Iraq, or how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop.
I want my country to wake up and DEMAND better from our fellow patriots and ourselves.
