Where does the time go?
It's 7:30 already! ACK!

I don't get some childfree people's attitudes.
A week or 2 ago, a conversation occured on the baristas community where a childfree person said people who want children of their own are selfish, and they are bad for not adopting needy children from overseas. o_O ??? What I'd like to ask the holder of this particular opinion is what they think of the parents oversees who have kids they don't want and/or can't afford, or those who give their kids up for adoption.

Work is crazy.
I'm surviving, and it's slowly getting better, but man, it should be easier than this!   I'm still not touching the bag of papers I brought home - just like last night. 

My new book, as if I need more to read.
The Secret Diary of Charlotte Bronte.  I think that's the title, but it's in the bag behind me and I don't feel like getting out of my chair.  It was in the fiction section but is supposedly based on Bronte's life.  The author also wrote a book about Jane Austen but it wasn't available.   I've been reading parts of Jane Eyre before bed recently.  Still love that book. 

Blah  :)

It was sort of a sarcastic comment, like being extreme to make a point, but still. How can people think that way?

Oh, I fully realize it's that kind of sarcastic/extreme question...but I think it's also a good "make 'em think" kind of question. People just often (myself included) don't THINK. Or, they don't think of both sides of the equation.

Like me...we both know I'm pretty opinionated on western medicine, but I DO still see some value in it: I'd be a fool not to. I, however, lean much more towards natural paths that look to find the source of the problem instead of just treating the outward issues. ;)
