Glad you're staying safe, Fran. I don't watch the news so I don't know exactly what is going on over there, I just know there was a firefight and dead "suspect".

I woke up yesterday to a video of the Waco explosion that put me in a terrible mood for the day. A father videotaping with his son, not expecting the explosion obviously, and the son crying and screaming and panicing after the explosion. That. Broke my heart a little.

I hate the mailman. I've been fighting with the post office for days over where the eff my "signature required" package is. As it turns out the mail guy decided to redeliver it TWICE even though I didn't ask them too. So each time I tried to pick it up they were all "Uh we can't find it....derp derp." And another package was marked as out for delivery yesterday but was definitely not delivered so I have no clue where it is. I am not amused.

I texted all my night team members once I got home to make sure they made it okay (since we are having a freaking BLIZZARD in mid April! :mad:) and one of them hasn't responded.

I'm worried :(
Are they okay?

It was solid ice, driving snow, and ice pellets the other night. I had a couple friends the day before that offer to lend me one of their 4WD vehicles so that I could get around, and the weather wasn't even as bad as it was the night I ended up needing to go out. So, beyond a "hey, the weather is really bad out there, people in AWD vehicles are getting stuck" there was no further comment at me leaving or checking in to see if I was okay.. when I was gone for six hours.

So I'm feeling really loved right now. :rolleyes: If I disappeared into a ditch somewhere I bet the only person who would notice within a few days Mandy when I stop responding to her texts.

My second vent:

I spent most of the night from 11 o'clock onwards violently ill. Like, throwing up until all I could get out was bile. Then I woke up around five or six to do the same thing. I have NO IDEA what triggered it because all I ate from 8 o'clock on was a clementine and some water.

I'm exhausted and drained physically, and I just don't want to go to work. At all. I want to nap some more.

My body is rebelling. My lower stomach feels like I ate a large rock. Bleeeh. I hope my water isn't poisoning us again...

One of my coworkers said in a conversation that "we need to be more careful who we simply hand those greencards out to", now realizing that I am a legal permanent resident and basically had to go through hell and back to become one.

Beautiful British Columbia!!
I am putting this in the venting thread, because its a vent.

I had a dream I had a baby, a perfect adorable baby. And when I woke up I was happy. Realized I want a baby. GRRR!!! But I guess my clock is starting to tick. I turn 25 May 1st. That's like baby making age ha ha

The ticking of my bio clock used to get me ... But it is squashed the second I see a misbehaving kid in public or see the horrid behavior of a teenager.

It's a good sobering reminder that I am not cut out for it.

so beyond sick of this kind of behavior. Like your religion only matters when you are muslim (because those are the terrorists you know!) from the same people who would ask you to not just christians for their SPARKLING WHITE track record

Allergy season is upon us. Poor Hannah has runny eyes galore. She woke up last night with her eyes basically glued shut from the gunk. She was scared and it hurt. I feel we are in for a similar experience tonight. I had the same problem as a kid and i remember how terrifying it was to wake up unable to open my eyes. Poor girl.

Will she sit still for a warm damp wash cloth? That might soften the crusties enough to make it hurt less.

I'm a Christian and don't think anyone should be judged based on their religion, and I'm hardly the only one.

That meme was reflection of the guy pictured,some media hubs and extreme views all over facebook. Whom are NOT typical christians at all, which is the point.
As usual the extremes and ill-informed ruin it for the bunch. badly worded post but the point is, it isn't representative of the majority of either group or the group at all.

Just a toxic attitude of a few which is spreading through my facebook feed like wildfire.
I wouldn't even call anyone who says, and I quote, "God hates muslims and thats why there are so many bombings over there" a christian.
