Bush and Bunnies


I have to shake my head again. There was a group of gay families that were to take part in the Easter Egg hunt at the White House last Sunday. The president was there for the start, but was not there by the time the gay families got there. The press makes the assumption, most likely correct, that his absence was a statemtnt of disapproval of gay families. But does he approve of large bunnies distributing eggs? I guess you don't mess with tradition, in any form.

Biting my cheek


Yesterday while I was eating breakfast, I bit into my cheek. It hurt like hell and it took me a little while to actually start chewing again. It was really painful. Throughout the day I chomped into the same wound and had to wait each time for the pain to subside. I knew the wound was there but seemed powerless to stop myself from chewing into it.

Several weeks ago I was with my extended family. I had this idea of how the conversations were going to go. The only problem was that when I had the opportunity to make what I was thinking a reality, I locked up and couldn't follow through with my thinking. I was so frustrated. I was so stuck. To me it compared to biting into my cheek. I know the wound is there. I know it will be painful if I bite into it again. And yet I can't seem to help myself. It prolongs the pain and increases the amount of healing time needed, but I'll be damned if I can stop it!.

OMG


I am prepping for a class on personality. I went to similarminds.com and took the test of leadership. I'm wondering if everyone who takes the leadership quiz turns out like Hitler, or are there other people you can become. I guess I'll have to keep taking the test until I line up with someone better than this!

Confessions of a Madonna


I have always been intriqued in a disqusted sort of way how Madonna takes religious themes, mainly Christian, and twists them. The name Madonna, the big cross on her ripped tights, and now her "Confession Tour". I realize that the reference is to confessions on a dance floor.

I wonder if that is why there is a screen so the priest can't see the confessor. I would have a hard time listening to someone's confession looking like this.
