can't do it

"I LOVE DEREK JETER!!!"

So yes, I am a bit of a baseball fan due to the fanatic man who I call my hubby. Whenever it's the Yankees, and sometimes the Dodgers, he can't get his mind off the game. Even when he's driving, he tunes the radio to the game, when we're at a party or doing some errands, he constantly checks his fone on the internet for new updates and sometimes you'll just randomly hear him shout for joy behind you as you're walking when he finds that his team is winning or did something to have an advantage. GO YANKEES!!! I feel somewhat for Boston Red Sox because they lost four straight games against the Yankees. That must SUCK! But at the same time, GO YANKEES and they are winning without the "supposed" magic of AROD. I LOVE DEREK JETER!!! I hope they keep on winning. I feel for Johnny Damon though. If they keep booing him, at that rate he might just want to win any game against the RED SOX! It's not fair, he contributed so much to Red Sox win in '04 and the management didn't even want to keep him. It wasn't his choice to leave but they didn't sign him back on. Well, moving to the Yankees is the best decision he ever made. At lease he's with a team that actually wants him and they are doing great! GO DAMON!! He looks great without the mustache, almost like changing identity. We actually see his face! YEY!!! GOOD JOB JOHNNY!!!

edit:// AHEM... 5 straight games. They won the fifth today!! Wooohoo!! Another Boston Massacre!

Things I love

Things I love, a cleaning husband and some good FUZE drink (especially the white tea)!

If I die today

"Nothing compares to the terror they must face now..."

There was this guy asking around to see what people thought of all the images being portrayed in the newpapers and magazines about the war in Lebanon and Israel. Most of the people were upset that such gruesome images were allowed to be shown and published. That out-of-sight out-of-mind metality! None of those images are anywhere close to what those orphans are seeing, death in the streets, whose parents were killed, whose aunts and uncles where killed, whose neighbors and friends were killed by acts of war. Nothing compares to the terror they must face now, now that it is happening again even when all they have is themselves. I am troubled. Troubled that the world is falling apart. Troubled that while many die, many don't care. Troubled that I cannot do more than contribute money or raise awareness. However, I rejoice for it gives me hope that Jesus may come in our lifetime! That revelation will finally happen! I'm troubled, but excited. I hate the wars, the terror, but these are signs you know. It gives me an opportunity to still change. Look in the mirror and see my faults and ask forgiveness. You never know, a bomb might hit tomorrow, today, or in a few hours in our cities, in our towns. If I die today will I be able to face the One who can come and take me away? Will you?

what nerve!

"Well, if you were fat maybe I'd help you..."

I went to LANE BRYANT yesterday with my friend. No, you're right, i don't fit any of those clothes but my friend needed some good interview clothes so i was there to help her out. Anyways, I didn't tell her this but this black sales lady was there. She took one good look at me when we came in and she had the nastiest look like "what do you think you're doing here " look. I left the store a couple of times while waiting for my friend to choose and went around the nearer stores in the mall to find some shorts. The second time i went back in, i found a shirt that i thought would look cute on my friend. So I asked the sales lady if they had it in a different color or one without buttons. The lady looked at me with the biggest attitude moving her index finger back and forth and said "Well, if you were fat maybe I'd help you but since your little skinny ass walked in here just to insult us big women, then i don't think i owe you any explanation or help." Then she walked away rolling her eyes! What nerve! I wasn't there to buy stuff for ME, I was there to help my friend pick out some stuff. And she knew that too! She saw us walk in together! She just waited for the right moment when my friend was far enough away so she could insult me like that!!!! What nerve!!! I never chose to be skinny you know. At least they have stores like LANE BRYANT specifically made for heavy set women. They don't have stores for size "0"s and it's really hard to find a size zero that fits you. I literally have to go to the juniors section, a twenty-six year old woman going to the juniors section, to find clothes. You know how hard it is during interviews when they see this tiny girl that looks like ten years old! Plus, men tend to take advantage of you as well! It's not easy being this skinny, and I really wish i could gain more weight! But it's really hard for me. Ask anybody! It's not something i'm proud of, but if big women get treated badly, so do we small skinny women. I shouldn't have been treated that way. That was so not fair!

stop bitching

Please read what the picture says. If anything, these images break my heart. It literally hurts my chest, makes me cry and die inside. I complain a lot about a lot of stupid things but then i fail to realize something. We are certainly a billion times more fortunate than these children. So why are we bitching and complaining?? If only I had all the money in the world, i would give it all to help these poor children. Why don't the rich billionaires have any compassion? What have we become?

//EDIT(7.11.06): Ok, so I take back what I said about the billionaires, although i still believe that the majority don't do their share. The two mentioned in the comment are certainly exceptions.
