I want to see Spiderman 2.
Jul. 5th, 2004 05:28 pmI was supposed to go, as always, with a group of Jenn's friends, but Irshad managed not to get everything together, so that fell apart. *shrugs* Things happen. Anyway, I don't want to go alone, and I can't go with Jenn because I'll be babysitting when she goes (Ana isn't invited), so I'm sitting here posting this to ask if anybody in/near the city wants to see Spiderman with me. Pretty please? I really really don't like the idea of going to the movies by myself.
*waits*

I never want to link to her journal again. It looks silly.

How long do you expect to live?
Jul. 5th, 2004 08:56 pmSeriously, how long? The average life expectancy is, what, 80 years?
365.25 x 80 = 29220
29,220 days. That's all the time in the world we've got.
I'm 21. I've only got about 21,000 days left. That's not very many. That is, in fact, a very small number when counting days.
Life is so very very short when you stop thinking in terms of years, and yet, people still insist on wasting their time getting angry over little things. Somebody yells at you in the street, another person forgets to say thank you. Why get mad? Do you really have the time? I don't think so. If you're going to get angry, get angry over something important and make it useful. You don't have the time to do otherwise.

Jul. 5th, 2004 10:26 pmAs we all know, pacifiers can lead to nipple confusion and interfere with the nursing relationship. They also can contribute to ear infections and cause parents to pay less attention to a child (since the child is always quiet). Somehow, this all blew up. Everywhere.
I wouldn't mind, really, except I post on that community, and, as most people realize, I'm never having kids. Or at least, probably never. I give a little leeway for insanity. And then, there's this one idiot... First saying "if you're not going to breastfeed, why do you have breasts?" And then, when I mention that I, personally, am not having kids, 1. demanding to know why I'm reading the posts there and 2. repeating the asinine question.
*rolls her eyes* Sorry, I wasn't aware that this was a closed community. OH CRAP! It's not!
And of course, she said "breasts aren't for men to play with" Well, neither are hands, but.... At any rate, nobody plays with my breasts, they'd hurt too much. NOT that it's any of her fucking business.
Can you tell I'm pissed? And yet, she's STILL better, in my view, than the one who said she couldn't "think of nothing more unnatural than breastfeeding". Um, excuse me? What about FORMULA feeding? Television? Computers? Condoms? Light bulbs? Books? Clothing? Shoes?
*sighs*
I fear for the world.
