Orange and Black Day doesn't count.

so it's Halloween.. and my kindergarten aged child is not allowed to wear her Halloween costume to school.. why? "Because we have so many students who do not believe in Halloween (religious reasons) or who are not permitted to participate in Halloween, or who come from war torn countries." Umm.. so let me get this straight.. you're telling me that to protect the rights of new immigrants to MY community, you are taking away MY child's right to participate in OUR cultures holidays?! You've got to be shitting me. I was born and raised here, and so was my child, so what makes their rights take precedents over mine and my child's?  You don't celebrate Halloween, fine, don't. But don't take away someone else's right too. I understand the no guns / weapons thing. That's just common sense.. all costumes should correspond with the school's dress code.. but not allowing children to dress up at all? That's bullshit. And no, "Orange and Black Day" does not count.

Bella Swan, the biggest setback to feminism since the Sandwich.

Ladies and gentlemen.. the count down to the beginning of the end is on!! Part one of Breaking Dawn is released in less that a month. then, a year after that, part two. Last year, I sponsored "Kill a Cullen" on Bloodlines.. this year.. ah hell, just let the mocking be brutal. Take no prisoners, and give no ground. I applaud Stephanie Meyer on her success, and Hollywood, for equally turning it into the biggest joke. I could do a slew of Twilight jokes, and Edward jokes, but that would just be cheap funny. Here is a protagonist we are supposed to relate to.. and she is so mind numbingly brain dead in the movies. If she had two brain cells to rub together.. but that would require brain cells. Girls, let's be honest. There is a safety switch wired into our subconscious, similar to how you cannot drown yourself by holding your own head under water, or how your eyelids close when you sneeze. We all have this instinct for when to get the hell out of the relationship. We fight this instinct and call it love. Bella has the most dependent nature in EVERY relationship she has. She needs her mom and her dad to need her. If left alone, they could be perfectly competent adults, her dad is a police chief for crying out loud. Edward, she is just plain dependent on, same with Jacob. So my dear anti-twi-hards, why go for the cheap and easy funny, look closer at what we mock, and find the deeper issues, and we will find more material. Everyone can make a fart joke, but it takes real comedians to do political stand up. Keep Calm, and mock on.

ok. who ordered the hurricane?

I love how it's not my drama.. It's the people around me.. and my kiddo has determined that she wants a baby brother. Given my single status, that's not going to happen anytime soon. I never really wanted kids, and mine was a surprise, so more kids? Right now, I'm saying no, no way in hell. I have enough troubles balancing a budget as is. Babies are expensive. A gift from God and a blessing, but expensive. I have other financial needs to take care of first, like a car, bills, rent, saving for a house, glasses, braces, school fees, and the list continues. I cannot afford another kid anytime soon, so my kiddo is out of luck.

These aren't the droids your looking for.

What's with hating your ex's new one? It seems to be predestined without provocation. Is it in our nature or just mine? I mean.. she literally makes me sick to my stomach. I'm still friends with him on social media, and we parted amicably, and I've had (and ended) a relationship since him.. but the one he chose? She makes me nauseous. "I wuv you sooooooooo much" Gag. Barf. Not a mature reaction, I know..and honestly I have tried very hard to not hate her.. to give her a chance.. but Christ on a cracker.. she's pushing it.. If wishful thinking made things happen.. oh wait.. that's premeditation.. never mind. You didn't read anything. Move along.

Not my Brightest Day...

So, after working 26 hours in three days (part time job), my brain has become primordial ooze. While standing in a Halloween  isle at the store I looked at my dad and said "It's October, isn't it." He damn near hit me. I'm a dumb-ass. Shun me.

Who's Driving This Bus?

Ever have the feeling where your brain has the consistency of warm Jell-o? That's about how I feel right now. I know I have brain cells, and I know they are functioning because I'm breathing, but other than that.. no juice left in the brain battery. I know there are other, more important things to be doing now, but I just can't seem to bring myself to do them.. So here's to procrastination.. may everything wait until tomorrow.
