stidh talks about birth control
I know what you - who aren't reading this - are not thinking. ~
That at my advanced age :[ birth control shouldn't be any
concern of mine.~ But I'll tell you what - I woke up thinking about
birth control - so I'm gonna write about it. ~ Anyway this is my
Blog - and I'll write whatever I want on it.~~~I'm for it. But not
for reasons of overpopulation. ~ Although that certainly a good reason
to be for it - that's just not what this post is about.~ This post is
about raising Quality Children. ~ I just think that fewer children
means better quality life. ~ But I'm against any government policy
stating you can only have a certain number of children. ~ I'm just
for parents - even people who are not married - to give some thought
before having a lot of children - of what kind of time they will have
to make their good citizens of This World. That's it. ~ my opinion
is that before having childen - just think about it. DON'T JUST HAVE
CHILDREN BECAUSE YOU CAN. ~ Have Children After Giving Some Thought
About How They Might Fit Into The This Wonderful World Of Ours.

We've got one slogan offered up here...
but it wasn't a positive one - so I had to delete it.
Come on - People - ya can do better than that!
How about I not run for President - but if there are
sufficient Right-in Votes - it could happen.
Think about it.
As the Write-In President - I would be magnanimous - and
we could all Work Together - To Get Our Country Back -
on track.
Well...ok. I've got one vote.
What say we elect...
stidh For PREZ in 2012.
There are all sorts of possible campaign slogans:
Stidh For President
Vote For The Mad Blogger - she's not angry/just crazy
Stidh For The First Woman President - in 2012
and I especially like this one
Vote For Sue/The Best Thing To Do
Let's start a campaign slogan contest - People.
The commenter with the best campaign slogan wins...
abso-lutely NOTHING.
Except that I'll post yer name for one day on my blog.
I'm easy.

May I suggest that I - be the woman - to do - the job?
I mean - they don't call me - stidh - for - nothing. : ]
the world's most exclusive club
is right here in the United States of American.
I'm talking about the Presidency - and it is all reported
in a recent issue of TIME magazine. Not only is the article
about this exclusive club well written - but the pictures that
are included - are to die for. Never before seen photos of
recent Presidents with Other Presidents - one would not expect.
When I was growing up - the term men's club usually meant things
like Rotary, Kiwanis and Lions. But in time - women were included
in these service clubs.
For those who are familiar with the movie - my fave - Out of Africa -
there is a scene that is hard to forget - when Karen Blixen -
unwittingly makes her way into the exclusively male bar and lounge -
shocking the male members. But by the end of the movie - she is
paid tribute - for her courage - by being invited to share a drink
with these very men.
Now we are at the brink - I believe - of allowing a woman to join
this exclusive men's club - the Presidency of the United States.
Not only could this happen - but it will most likely happen very soon.
Why - you might ask?
Because we seem to have exhausted our supply of good men for that position.
Would this woman please step forward - and take her rightful place - as
the first woman President of the United States of America?
I believe we are ready for her.
Wherever she is - and whomever she might be - God Bless Her - and Give
her the Courage to Lead Us.
I believe it can - and will - happen.
The Sooner The Better.

Time flies...
when yer havin' fun.
And when ya reach the ripe old age of 67 - time
flies Really fast - anyway ya slice it.
Now it's not hard to get into a denial mode at my
age - but I was not ready for this one.
IT HAS BEEN ONE YEAR SINCE OBAMA GOT OSAMA.
with the help of our Brave Navy Seals - that is. : ]
Seriously - folks - I would have guessed it was more
like a couple of months.
But I've had a lot going on in my life - and the way
things look - there is a lot more to come - my way.
Or as Tom Cruise said in A Few Good Men -
And the hits just keep on coming.
But I just keep hittin' em back - trying to dodge 'em -
kinda like former President George W. Bush dodged the
shoes thrown his way by the stupid Iraqi reporter.
NOBODY HITS THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES IN THE
HEAD WITH A SHOE.
And thanks - Prez W - for proving that.
And while we're on the subject - I'm glad our troops got
him - Osama Bin Laden - that is. I'm quite sure that
the fish got a tasty meal out of that bad guy - maybe
some indigestion too.
Good ridance to bad rubbish - is what we said in my day -
when speaking of bad people.
But has it Really been a whole year?
what have i been doing all that time...
I've Got A Friend
She's always been my Friend. It's just that now I'm able to handle it.
Whatever are ya talkin' about - stidh - about handlin' a Friend?
Don't get yer panties in a bunch - dear readers and noncommenters -
cause I'm gonna tell ya the whole story right now.
But first - I want to warn ya that this is a PERSONAL post - something
I never do : ] but I think that this is important to say.
For you see - this post is about how Friendship can be tainted - and ruined
by Jealousy.
Yes - I said Jealousy.
And it wasn't the kind of Jealousy that ya normally think of - whatever that
is - but I Was Jealousy of her - BECAUSE SHE ALWAYS KNEW WHO
SHE WAS - and she seemed to have a 'handle' on things.
And I didn't.
But now I do. I still don't know where I 'm going - but I pretty much know
who I am. And for the first time in my life -
I Am Proud Of My Country.
Wait a minute - that's what Michelle Obama got in hot water for saying.
For the first time in my life - I'm Proud Of Myself.
Sure I still make mistakes - and I'm still wrong a lot of the time.
And Yes - I'm Growing Old. : [
BUT NOW I HAVE A HANDLE ON THINGS.
No matter where Life Leads Me - I'm really for it.
I think.
But getting back to my Friend - now I can deal with having her for a friend - because
I like myself.
And That's Pretty Important.
So Thanks - God - for showing me who I am - even if I don't know who I am.
and did I mention that this was going to be incoherent
Oh well - better luck next time - you people who don't read my blog - and
especially youse who don't comment
so there :o)

Old Glory Stands Alone~~~The American Flag should fly alone on the flag pole.~ NOTHING - not even those little black MIA/POW flags should fly with Her. ~ The worst thing I saw the other day is a car lot with about 15 American Flags flying at once for promotion. ~ THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ~ Let's let Old Glory - get ALL OF THE GLORY

Open Note of Sympathy to the Family of Trayvon Martin~I'm so very sorry - that Trayvon was Killed. I'm just sorry. And now we want Justice to be done. We want a fair trail for George Zimmerman. He deserves to be punished - but here in American - he will get a fair trial. It won't bring back Trayvon - but here in America - we give evenyone a fair trial. And then we move on. I'm so sorry that he had to die - so that we can move on. And hopefully - good will come out of Trayvon's death. I don't know what that would be - but I hope it happens. And I'm just so sorry.

3 girlfriend things
This post is about three things. When I write a post like
this one I like to do it in threes - but I can't think right
off of the third one - which I was going to write about as
the second one - so I'll add it later if it comes - to me.
~~~
The title of this post - has the word 'girlfriend' in it - and
I would like to say that the use of that particular word is
in the generic form. Such as a person that ya like to hang
out with - and it can be a actual girl friend - or a guy. Or
it can be a person of any age. But here is the important part:
you just Hang Out. Remember the Seinfeld episode where Elaine
and Jerry talk about how ya can't bring S*x into a friendship -
or it won't work. That's what I'm thinkin' about here.
This post - as incoherent as it may be - is just talking to you
as if we were girlfriends - in the generic sense of the word.
If you are totally confused at this point - go to another blog -
but you will miss the best part - that follows.
~~~
about my face
It has not escaped me in the last six months that my bathroom
mirror has been cruelly trying to tell me that I am growing old.
Yes - unwelcome wrinkles have come to live in my face. And my
bathroom mirror is saying - What Are Ya Gonna Do About It - stidh -
anyway. Well - right now I'll tell ya what I'm gonna do:
NOTHING.
I could do treatments - get a face lift - stuff like that - but I'm
not going to. Becuase my wrinkles tell me something - like I have
lived most of my life - and now is the time to go for something
more important than looking good - or young. I'm 67 years old - and
I want to live THAT PART OF MY LIFE.
That's it folks. I am getting old and anyone who doesn't like my
wrinkles - and you know who ya are :[ can just stuff it.
~~~
just say no/Nancy Reagan
It's no secret that when Nancy Reagan was First Lady - I didn't like her.
That is until I found out that the reason she was so standoffish is that
she LOVED RONALD REAGAN SO MUCH that she was distracted - and she just
wanted to have a life with him. After I found that out I have nothing
but respect for her. And that leads to why I am even bringing her up.
And here it is:
JUST SAY NO
When I was in the Stress Unit last week I tried to help the other patients
out - and many of them were sadly young with alcohol and drug addiction
problems. But I always came up with these two things:
It's Consuming Your Life - I got that one from watching Robin Williams on
Letterman last year. He said that's the first thing they tell you in
Rehab.
and
Just Say No - is what First Lady Nancy Reagan embraced as her motto -
and an extremely important & and wise saying - and I would say that
in group therapy - and everyone picked up on it.
It is my most earnest hope that these great people that I was with in
the looney bin :] - will remember those three words - and the one about it comsuming your life.
Those words could save the life of many - & the combination is - well -
just amazing.
~~~
That's it. Is that incoherent - or what?
Thanks for being my girlfriend while ya read this - and would it kill
ya to comment?
if I think of the 3rd thing I'll post it later.
:]

CONGRATULATIONS BRANGELINA ! ! ! ! !
They are finally - 6 kids later - gonna tie the knot.
Not that it's any of my business - but I couldn't be
happier - for them.
I'll be back later for my predictions about the Wedding -
which incidently - is OUR ROYAL WEDDING.
Here is how stidh thinks it will go down:
~Midnight Cowboy/great actor will walk Angie down the aisle
~Gown will be amazing - maybe strapless
~Kids will all take part in wedding
~Jen will shed a tear - boo hoo
~Wedding may be private - but we will be allowed a peek - after
~Reception - a celebrity blow out - why?
Because Angie and Brad are our Beautiful People
and they are not only Beautiful - on the outside -
BUT THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL ON THE INSIDE TOO
anyone want to argue that point?
I didn't think so.

look-alikes here Over The Rainbow
First it was Julia Roberts.
At Lowe's.
A Dead Ringer - and I just knew that she got that all
of the time.
No makeup - no little thing up buy her right eye - but
it was Julia Roberts - alright.
~~~
Then at the Stress Unit - the guy I first bonded with was
totally Jack Black. I didn't say it right off - but finally
I say,
'I know ya get this all the time - but you look exactly like
Jack Black.'
He sez, 'Yep.' and started giggling like a 13 year old.
~~~
And there was the guy who didn't say much - but he was a
walking Ashton Kutcher - except with shoulder length blond
hair.
~~~
I thought that would be the end of it - until when I checked
out. There at the desk doing paperwork - was Fred Armisen.
Fred Armisen.
He even had on black framed glasses.
I said, 'Do ya know who Fred Armisen is?'
'Nope. Never heard of him,' he said with a slight smile.
'Pity,' I replied.
'Cause he IS Saturday Night Live, and ya look just like him.'
Then I ask a nurse standing there if she knew who Fred Armisen
is.
'Never heard of him,' she sez.
These people in this community are Conservatives - and that's why
they don't watch SNL.
But I was reassured somehow - that Fred Armisen was there in the
Looney Bin. No offense - Fred.

grow old with - stidh
While spending a few days in the Really Cool
Stress Unit - at Bloomington Hospital - aka
the Looney Bin - or to put it more bluntly -
the Psycho Ward - just kidding - it's a great
place - an amusing thing occurred.
I - stidh - not my Real name - was enjoying the
company of two young men - also inmates in the
Stress Unit - well - and Toy - his Real name - was
regaling me and Jack Black - not his Real name - about
how the police were chasing him.
So Toy was animatedly illustrating his True Story -
with hand gestures - and all - when he happened to
use the phrase 'old lady' - which phrase I did not
object to - but Toy suddenly turns tuh me and says:
'No offense.' - about sayin' old lady.
Now - instead of sayin' 'none taken,' I'm thinkin'
Whassup with that?
I say to Toy - why you say 'old lady' then say no offense
to me - stidh?
But Toy - as in Story - continues his Really cool story and
ignores me.
I let it go - since I was totally enjoying his story - about
gettin' chased by the cops.
And anyways - Stacie also called me on my age - by saying that
I am so sweet and I remind her of her grandma.
'D*mn,' I think - still enjoying Toy's Story.
All the time I'm remembering at CVS how the young guy clerk
made reference to my age by saying - during the conversation
'at your age.'
But here is the worst part - when last night Connor was listening
to me talk about how my husband-now-guardian :[ was a veteran - and
Connor sezs - 'of WW2?'
I nearly faint from the shock of it but shoot back 'no - The Civil War.'
The Others liked that and we all collapse in laughter.
But it doesn't escape me that these youngins - think of me as old.
wtf?

Because He Lives
These song lyrics are actually PART TWO - of My Faith Journey -

God Sent His Son - They Called Him Jesus
He Came To Love - Heal And Forgive :)
He Lived And Died - To Buy My Pardon - and my sins are Legion
An Empty Grave Is there To Prove
MY SAVIOUR LIVES
How Sweet To Hold - A Newborn Baby - nothing like it Really
And Feel The Pride - And Joy He/She Gives
But Greater Still - The Calm Assurance
This Child Can Face Uncertain Days
BECAUSE HE LIVES
And Then One Day I'll Cross The River - euphemism for die :[
I'll Fight Life's Final War With Pain
And Then As Death - Gives Way To Victory :)
I'll See The Lights - OF GLORY - YES
AND I'LL KNOW HE LIVES
BECAUSE HE LIVES
I CAN FACE TOMORROW
BECUASE HE LIVES
ALL FEAR IS GONE
BECAUSE I KNOW HE HOLDS THE FUTURE
AND LIFE IS WORTH THE LIVING - Just

My Faith Journey - Easter Sunday - 2012
Here it is - Folks.
Where I am in my Faith Journey - as of today.
Chapter One
Sounds good tuh me - They got me when I wuz a kid.
Chapter Two
God shows me what it's like to have a Personal Realationship
with Him - for the most part I liked it. There were huge ups
and downs - but I stuck with it
Chapter Three
I finally make a lasting commitment/bond with God - because at the advanced age of 66 - HE GIVES ME JESUS.
Chapter Four
The Really good stuff is over - and now I'm in it for the
Long Haul.
But on a daily basis - I find myself thinking -
WHO IS THIS GUY?
THIS MAN
THIS PERSON
THAT CALLS HIMSELF GOD/JESUS/HOLY SPIRIT
AND WHO LOWERS HIMSELF BIG TIME
TO DEAL WITH
AND CARE ABOUT
THE LIKES OF ME?
But it no longer matters Who He Is.
BECAUSE HE LIVES - I can too - even when I want
to quietly BLOW MY BRAINS OUT...
with the handgun that I don't have or never have even
touched but maybe I can borrow one from one of those
CONSERVATIVES WHO PACK HEAT
responsible gun control - ASAP
but please God
Wouldja please bless
Mitt Romney
President Barack Obama
and most of all
God - BLESS THE UNTIED STATES OF AMERICA
thanks SCU
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE ! ! ! ! !

the five days of Easter
Here is stidh's take on the five days of Easter. Now
since none of you People are reading this - I will
expect NO COMMENTS. But feel free to comment anyway -
as I may have a differing opinion than ya all - on this
exhilarationg - wonderful Holiday.
Here it is - the five days of Easter - all according to stidh:
Ash Wednesday - A serious time - no doubt - which takes place just
six weeks before Easter - and this day kicks off the Easter season.
A church service is held after which the congregation goes forward
for Communion - and if it is so desired - a cross of ashes is placed
on the forehead or the back of the hand. One can indicate that the
cross of ashes is not desired - and this is what I've always done
to reject the cross of ashes. I don't object to admitting that I'm
a siinner - because I sin big time like everyone else - but to me
the cross of ashes are a bit much - especially on the forehead -
but I don't mean to offend.
Maundy Thursday - At the old place - there was a church service
on Maundy Thursday evening - at which time there was - a couple
of times - a Last Supper sort of thing. The food was duplicated -
as much as possible - and it amounted to something like bread and
water. The Washing of the Feet was also done - like when Jesus
washed the feet of His Disciples. What stands out here - is when
Peter at first refued to allow Jesus wash his feet - saying that
he was not good enough to allow this - but after Jesus said that
if Peter didn't allow it - then he could not be a follower of
Jesus. A very Meaningful and Significant church service.
Good Friday - The most painfull of the five - and especially
for Jesus. I love Good Friday services almost as much as I do
Easter Sunday - although it is still a notch below the Wonderful
Easter morning service - especially the Sunrise Service. At the
old place - they sometimes had reenactments - and other dramatic
stuff. I always liked that.
Easter Saturday -Easter Saturday is a Happy Day for me. It
is about - for me - waiting for something that I JUST KNOW
is gonna happen. It is just knowing that Jesus is goinng to
appear to Mary and Martha - and to all of us - and it is
about just knowing that He Is ALIVE. He was alive then - and
He is alive now - for ALL OF IS. So we can - now that we got
through Good Friday - rejoice in Easter Saturday - and then
we can go to bed Saturday night - resting assured - that we
are going to Celebrate Life - in the morning - His Life.
Easter Sunday - The Most Glorious Day Of The Year - is here.
But whatever do ya mean - stidh. Christmas is that day.
Nope. It's Easter. You see - Christmas is a party - Jesus'
Birthday Party. It's when we have FUN - and help Jesus
celebrate his birthday. When even Scientologists can put
up a Christmas Tree. But Easter - dear friends - is a
huge theological celebration. When everything we dream
about comes true. Jesus Is Alive. HE HAS RISEN! ! !
I will be back throughout the day to fill in the spaces -
with my take on the five days of Easter. I might add that
I am writing this - you might say - out of my mind - just
to see what I come up with. I will - no doubt - be as
surprised at not writing this - as you will be - in not
reading it.

on my roses
They're here.
At least two of my Legion of rosebuds are going to be blooming
in the next few days.
Am I excited about this?
You bet I am.
You see I have never had roses - anywhere - where I have lived.
When I moved here last year - around the 1st of November - there
were still red roses on the three rose bushes.
Now the roses are back. And I will be able to see them 'come out' -
in all of their glory.
To help me celebrate - I am not going to share a few rose quotes
with all of you - my nonreaders & especially my noncommenters:
A rose is a rose is a rose.
~Gertrude Stein
I'd rather have roses on my table than diamonds around my neck.
~Emma Goldman
Everything's coming up roses - for me.
-Ethel Merman
and my fave
God gave us memory so that we may have roses in December.

on the lottery
Smart move - winner of $218 million... on remaining anonymous.
But - Really - does anyone need to win THAT MUCH MONEY - in
the Lottery?
Why not revise the Lottery - so that more people could get
rich.
I know I would like to just win a million dollars.
What would be wrong with limiting the lottery to one
million dollars?
Let's spread the wealth around - a bit.
And I'm sure Maher would like to win since he gave away
a million to our Really Cool Guy Prez' campaign fun.
just a thought~but i like to think about how much shopping
I could do with a million $~yes - just a thought

Because when it comes to children - politics aside.
I know I speak for everyone - that we hope she does

loving you
I got sidetracked just now - I wuz tryin' to find different
utube videos that played Were You There - in honor of
Good Friday - and I did find a couple of good ones - like
Willie Nelson & also Johnny Cash - but then I thought I'd
try Elvis - and I happened upon his video of Loving You.
Of course it was so great - but with it were some amazing
pictures that showed while he was singing LOVING YOU.
You know - when he was just starting out - like 1957 or
something like that.
The lyrics are so great:
I will spend my whole life through
Loving you~Loving you
Winter~Summer~Springtime 2
Loving you Loving you
Makes no diff'rence where I go or what I do
You know that I'll always be Loving you
If I'm seen with someone new
Don't be blue Don't be blue
I'll be faithful I'll be true
Always true True to you
There is only one for me and You know who
You know that I'll always be - Loving you

How stdh Is Gonna Honor Easter
I haven't had any requests for me to list what I'm
gonna do to Honor Easter :[ - so here they aren't:
~listen to the Easter section of The Messiah - ran
this by twice with the movies on mute - work fer me
~color Easter eggs - I myself do not eat eggs anymore
but my Guardian does I'll dye a dozen eggs and even
make DEVILed eggss - did that and the eggs turned
out ABSTRACT - cool
~work in my patio garden - took out some weeds and
finished pruning the dogwood (?) tree
~pick out a movie(s) that most is like Easter - but off
hand I can't think what that would be - but I'll post it
here when I decide
Ok. I just picked out 12 movies that I'm gonna run by
on my kitchen flat screen this Glorious Easter Weekend -
starting now. I'm going to list them here and then say
why I chose them:
Evan Almighty - It's about how Evan Baxter/Steve Carell
deals with being chosen by God To Make The World A Better Place
Ferris Bueller's Day Off - Easter is kinda a New Beginning type
of thing - and like Cameron starts over by standing up to his
dad - and Ferris' sister learns to be herself - thanks to the
Really cool Charlie Sheen. :] Also - this is on the top of my
list of Fun Movies.
This time 3 things spoke to me during FB'SDO
Careron Frye
Twist & Shout
John Hughes' Appreciation of Fine Art - for me it's always
about Art
& cs
Super 8 - For me this movie is - and always will
remain - about - the video during the credits. And
the music after that - my sharona - and the very
end of the movie when the nice alien gets the ride
home. Plus the relationship stuff between the father
and son.
Religulous - I already gave a review of Religulous on my
Religion Blog. Now I would just say that EVERYONE SHOULD
WATCH THIS IMPORTANT DOCUMENTARY. If you are of a certain
Faith - know that YOU WILL BE OFFENDED. So you need to plan
on that but try to watch it with an open mind. And also -
YOU WILL LAUGH. So plan on that too. BUT BE SURE TO WATCH IT.
Eight Below - What a PERFECT BEAUTIFUL movie. Frank Marshall
must be a very special person. And Paul Walker - I forgive him
for the crazed trucker movie - which I loved - but it did get
a little mean at the end. :]
Starry Night - Nice little video - but Really a bit of a downer -
and it choked me up - the ending too depressing. I liked the
theme song - though.
2001 A Space Odyssey - Here is a movie that - for me - is never
not good. And it is a segue to Rise of the Planet of the Apes -
sort of. My favorite part - along with all of it - is when the
two astronauts go up against HAL - kinda like moi. In order to
get the full benefit of this movie - IMHO - ya have to also watch
2010 The Year We Make Contact. I love Roy Schneider(sp)and I
personally like the sequel virtually as much as the first one.
Helen Mirren too. 2001 is smart scifi at its best - but then
you already know that. And The Music - by what's his name is
so exhilirating. Furthermore - there is the WARNING - to stay
away from Europa. So let's do it People.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes - CAESAR! CAESAR! CAESAR!
City of Angels - Well. That one was excruciatingly slow - and
borrring. But still - it had a nice little ending - it was
about 'living.' and now - a Really good one. That will usher
in Easter morn. I'm gonna go for it.
Michael - Love this won.
Alice In Wonderland - If Judi Dench can get an Oscar for
8 minutes of great acting in SIL - WHEN ARE YOU PEOPLE
GONNA recogonize JD's great acting. GIVE ME A BRAKE - HEAR.
O Brother Where Art Thou - nothing left to say - here -
this is simply a Giant of a Great movie. That's all.
~not watch Real Time With Bill Maher - since Bill does not
have a show on Good Friday - pretty good for an avowed Athiest -
dontcha think?
~paint a small plastic Cross with flowers on it to hang in
my sunroom/where I paint - did it - and wouldya believe it
looks like my almost 3 yr old g-dau did it? Those things are
HARD to do. But it's up and running...
~find some good religious music videos on utube - stuff like
He Arose~Up FROM THE GRAVE HE AROSE and scenes from BenHur
only the best Easter movie EVER i mean chuck heston was in
it wasn't he?
~not go to church this year since I am not happy :[ with my
lot in life - kind of punishing myself - but maybe next
year I'll go when things are better
That's about it - Dear Blogging Friends - and I'll update this
from time to time if there's anything else.
~almost forget - I'll read approprite sections of the Holy Bible
and check Joe's - Z's - & Ticker's Eeaster Sunday Videos
~one more thing - I may write a My Faith Journey post on Easter
I've been thinking of a good won
gonna do to Honor Easter :[ - so here they aren't:

note to Shirley
Hey - Shirl.
Sorry that I did not think of this sooner - but there
is not a Real Time show on Friday. Bill is taking a
break - but will be back on Friday the 13th: LOOK OUT!
Just kidding - my dad was always superstitious about
Friday the 13th - but not me.
I will post the guests for April 13th when I get the
list.
Also - thanks for yer support - Shirley - about my current
situation. Yes - it has been tough - and may even get
tougher - but ya know what 'they' say:
When The Going Gets Though - The Tough Get Going -
or something like that.
I'll keep you updated on it.

Hungry Games :] - the second time around
Tonight I went to see Hunger Games - for the second time.
Earlier - I wrote a post about it (see my post about it.)
I came down pretty hard on Hunger Games -
Because I Didn't Get It - Since I Hadn't Read The Book.
I'm gonna read the first book - I already bought it in
paperback.
The reason I'm pursuing this is that both my daughters -
my 12 year old granddaughter -and my sister-in-law/friend
are all reading it - and I trust their opinion when they
say it is very good.
And late this afternoon - I only had to stay for about
45 minutes of Hunger Games. Since I had seen the whole
thing - after the first part - I THOUGHT - NOW I GET IT.
I understand it now.
And ya wanna know what? It makes sense - to me.
Correct me if I'm wrong - but the whole idea seemed to me
that in order to give up the bent for killing that we
humans have - in order to never have war - again - was
that there would be this sacrifice - of a young man and
a young woman. Or rather that the young man and the young
woman would fight to the death - and the one remaining
young person would be the hero.
Now I'm not suggesting that we do that. I believe there is
a better way - for us to stop the wars - and killing each
other off.
But this post is about Hunger Games - and I think that it is
a GOOD MOVIE.
So here is what I say to:
Suzanne Collins - I'm looking forward to reading your Really cool book.
Gary Ross - Thanks for such a great movie.
Woody Harrelson - You did a great job in HG - and you are a great actor.
The rest of the cast - Great job also.
And that's all I have to say about that - although I reserve the
right to write more after I read the book. Alright?

The Little BOY Apologized?
His Freakin' Mother Should Be Doin' The Apologizing -
for having a loaded gun in the glove compartment.
Did I get the story wrong?
Did the gun shoot a little girl - by itself?
Now I'm Really sure that -
GUNS DO HURT PEOPLE
The little girl COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED
instead of just wounded.
Let's get with it folks -
and have
RESPONSIBLE GUN CONTROL
before something else happens -
to someone we love
someone out there -
who is just waiting for a gun to not hurt them
for having a loaded gun in the glove compartment.

HERE COME DA JUDGE
If ya think that 5 days in the Stress Unit was a
challenge - for moi - listen to this - one - Folks -
I'm being hauled before da judge - tomorrow -
that's Thursday - April 5th - at 2 pm ET - to try
and prove that I'm competent to take care of myself -
after the divorce. Well - isn't that fine - stidh -
not competent to take care of herself.
Now I can use a few prayers - and however ya people
who are not Christian/Judeo - do pray - even you
mean athiests - I could use some sky God support.
in a big way
Thanks - and carry on. Blogging is very Important.
:]

stidh spends 5 days in the Psycho Ward
aka the looney bin.
Just kidding - about it being the pyscho ward or the
looney bin.
But I Really did spend 5 days on lockdown :[ - as a
guest - in the Stress Unit of Bloomington Hospital
- no thanks to my d*psh*t soon-to-be-ex h*sb*nd - who
went behind my back and obtained a Court Order - for
me to have three days of psychiatric observation.
Now the worthless piece of sh*t and I have been going
back and forth about this for about a month and ya
might say I was ForGainst - it. : ] kinda flipflopin'
on the subject.
So - a week ago - last Thursday - I said yes.
Yes - I'll submit to having a psychiatric evaluation.
And much to my surprise - the worthless piece of sh*t
f*in picks up the phone and calls the local police to
come and escort me - there.
There was no struggle - on my part - when two of our
Really cool Liberal College Town's finest - knocked on
the door - and after exchanging a few amenities - I
was interviewed by the man-cop and after that I was
interviewed by the lady-cop.
Now I may be stupid - but I just knew that to resist
would not be the Right thing to do - oh you know what
I mean. I knew that struggling would most likely land
me - somewhere NOT over the rainbow.
And that said - those who dare not read - nor comment -
on my blog - we rode through the campus - convoy style -
and next I will report on being admitted - and much more.
