When I married my husband..

“Mawwage is what bwings us togwether today....” From The Princess Bride.

That is exactly how the JP who married us sounded. Mawwage, what is mawwage. Seriously, that's how she talked. Im surprised I didn't break down at my own wedding and burst out laughing. I think I was too nervous and excited to notice her talking. However I didn't really notice it until my sister was married a year or so later by the same JP. Then I really noticed the whole mawwage thing. I giggled a little.

The reason all this came up is because I was watching Law and Order SVU and Cary Elwes was on and I realized he looked old and chunky. Then I thought of The Princess Bride, one of my most favorite movies of all time.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to wish Merritt and Coffee Husband a very happy anniversary. Happy 19th wedding anniversary. R and I are just a year behind. Well ten months behind. Here's hoping to another 19 years of happiness.
And a big Happy Anniversary to Cat/Head who are celebrating their second anniversary. Their lives have been ever changing this past two years, but their love remains steady!

I had all kinds of thoughts and plans for my future. Dreams of the life I'd lead and the places I'd travel. But dreams are simply mist, blown away by the winds of reality, and as a well-known movie of our  younger years taught us, 'Reality Bites'. Reality is a bitter bitch.

Monster Juice Spray pussifying our children?

Today someone posted a cute little story about a pharmacy that prescribes a Monster Spray to children that have monsters under their bed. They spray the spray before bedtime, under their bed and it makes all the monsters go away. A little six year old girl used it three times before she was sure all the monsters were gone. I find this story absolutely adorable. I think it's wonderful that this pharmacists does something so kind for small children with big imaginations. I think a little magic in this world is just what a lot of child need. The response from one woman totally had me stunned. She said it's crap like this that is pussifying our children. Really? Then she went on in another reply when asked what one has to do with the other to say her daughter was bullied and what are they going to make next, bully spray? (They do make a bully spray, it's called mace!)  Her daughter had to graduate early because of bullies. Okay, what does her daughter being bullied have to do...

Sometimes..

Sometimes the emotional pain becomes too much to bear. Sometimes the emotional pain feels like it's going to consume us. Sometimes the emotional pain is so overwhelming that we need a physical pain to release it before we lose ourselves and who we are in it. Not everyone can understand this, I get that. Not everyone can look at someone with scars that were self inflicted and say, I see your pain. Sometimes, we hide those scars under our jeans so no one will notice. It's not for attention, it's for release. Sometimes we dull the pain with alcohol, sometimes we dull the pain with drugs either prescription or illegal. Sometimes we smoke too much and talk to loud. But we find our release to keep us alive. We are survivors with our scars to prove it.
