Another brother is killed

06/22/2010

I put the television on and sat down for breakfast.
I dont watch the news but it caught my ear and I forced myself to listen. I was shocked and sadden.

Yesterday another Massachusetts 21 year old soldier surving in the middle east was killed by a "road side bomb"
He just turned 21 two weeks ago.
Why can't we bring all our men and women home safely?
This kid was only 21, he was just giving the right to drink alcohol. He wasnt even old enough to take any office in the government.
This war has been going on for way too long.
I wonder how many canddles has been lit?

I went out last night with a couple of my former coworkers.
It was very nice. One of them are moving to the DC area to go to school for her PsyD. She can tell me how dificult it is.
We got caught up on our lives, talked about other former coworkers and clients.
We went to my fav non-chinese restaurant. Boston Beerworks. yum.

My boss just sent me a "to do" list. I like when she does that. I feel like I am more productive. hmm well, not more productive but that I am in line with what the house (I work at a group home) goals are. hmm that doesnt sound like what I mean to say either. lol

STOP STOP SHUT UP already. please?
when is this soccer thing going to end? I had enough of it.
Besides the point I careless about soccer, there are countries that I never heard of who are playing.
It's everwhere. It's on my tv, my radeo, people are talking about it and most of these games are like 1-0 finals. I know people say that baseball is boring, and I get that, but soccer? soccer is very boring. I'd rather listen to golf. not that I ever did that before.
There is a sports show I listen to every morning and it's not on because of this stupid soccer game. oh, I'm sorry, let me say that correctly, a football match.

I am chatting to a lady via okcupid.com. I'm not sure if it will go any further than a friendship, but she loves the redsox and patriots and she enjoys going to concerts. I sure could use a sports-concert going buddy.

OO Bed of roses is on my xm
yay for Bon Jovi

I am wicked excited! this weekend I'm going to my college best friend's house and seeing toystory 3 with my cute 4 year old twin nieces. I called him last night to finalize the plans and one of them, goes "I want to talk I want to to" she gets on the phone "are you taking us to see toy story 3 uncle jonny?" I said "only if you are good." "ok, I will be good." I talked to both of them and than Jeff again then one says I have something else to say to uncle jonny she gets on the phone and in a cute only a 4 year old girl way say "I love you uncle jonny" AWWW! they melt my heart every time!

Jeff said after that "and I didnt even have to give them a quarter"
He's such a jerk. lol

That's so sad. I hate this stupid war. I just wish it would be over with it! My SIL's husband is about to go over to Iraq, he's only 19 and it scares the piss outta me!

Your neices sound so cute! I hope you have fun taking them to see Toy Story 3!!

჻ೋ჻ Thank you!

Well if the man, I hate even calling him that, had been decent even a bit I would have tried with him. But he was extremely abusive, he used to beat the living crap out of me. And he was a drug addict. I was a drug user at one point, but I quit after I found out I was pregnant and I never looked back. He couldn't keep clean, I don't even think he even tried. He wouldn't get help for the abuse. It was one thing for him to hurt me, there was NO way I was going to put my daughter in that situation at all. I would have killed him if he ever hurt her. I stopped talking to him at the end of first trimester of pregnancy, I never heard from him again. That was the sign for me. It was hard to do it all alone and I felt like a whore putting "unknown" on her birth certificate, but I did that so when I meet a man one day and I marry him, he can adopt her with no problems at all. I would make the same decision if I had to do it all over again.

I was so unprepared and so not ready for a child in any way, but I made it through that and over came a lot. She never has once lacked for anything in her life, in fact she's been decently spoiled since she was born. Everyone who meets her can see she is not lacking in her life at all not having that man around. All he did was contribute his sperm, so that's why he's called the sperm donor. Shoot, even his sperm didn't seem to affect her genes, she looks EXACTLY like me as a child! And she's smart like me too If it weren't for having her I'd probably be dead right now. I was headed that way. ჻ೋ჻

That's horrible. A couple guys that I went to school with were killed over there..one was on my birthday a couple years ago, and the other one exactly one month later. It's horrible. I wish it all would end!

I don't follow soccer either. Only sports I enjoy are baseball and wrestling, but I don't really follow baseball much either...I do enjoy going to games though. Just don't get to very often.

Aww your nieces sound adorable!
