Saturday, August 30th, 2008


well, i finally broke down and bought the first installment in the Twilight series. i’ve had numerous people tell me how great the series is. now, while i know it in no way can possibly come near Harry Potter…i figure i need a new obsession for a while. atleast until Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie comes out NEXT JULY. err that makes me so mad…stupid writers’ strike.

Nothing interesting is going on.  Just work, work and more work.

BUT I am leaving to go back to Houston Friday, then it’s off to a short family vacation next week.  So I will have pictures to put up in a week or so.  
Keep on truckin’ everyone :).

the war on sex

Saturday, August 2nd, 2008

President Bush’s administration is trying to get the FDA to redefine the term ‘abortion’ to include all attempts to stop human life, which would include birth control.  

If you take a look at CNN there is a video explaining the administration’s attempt.
What about women who take the pill for medical reasons. OR, heaven forbid, are being responsible and know they aren’t ready for children?
Personally, I don’t think this will ever happen.  Bush has 6 more months in office and women’s rights groups would have a field day with this.
If you’re interested in this debate, I highly recommend the book “How the Pro Choice Movement Saved America:  Freedom, Politics and the War on Sex” by Cristina Page.  Pro Choice isn’t all about supporting legal abortions.  It supports a person’s choice to use any form of birth control.
AHH, don’t get it.
Anyway, I’m in Austin for the night, and am currently watching Travis and Leah duke it out on Super Nintendo’s Mario Brothers.  Ahh, good times.
