Down The Rabbit Hole

Yeah, they’re really fucking happy that we’re there. Iraqis in Fallujah ambush two cars containing four American civilians (contractors) with hand grenades and then STRING THE BODIES UP ON A BRIDGE, after dragging one through the streets and hitting another with sticks.

We need to get the fuck out of there. Given there are parts of Iraq that are more hostile to Americans than others, but this can’t keep happening. American deaths in the conflict now total 600. How many more have to die before Bush gets a clue and pulls our people out of there?

NO BLOOD FOR OIL

I took this picture of the boy’s motorcycle yesterday. I love my new camera.

My wonderful hubby and our baby Maggie the day we brought her home.
(Not with the new camera, but I love this picture.)

This is my big fat puffalove, Cooper. This is her saying, Get the fucking camera out of my face, Ma.

I have updated the website for my candle biz, Flora Solaris. It has all new Spring scents, and I expanded the container candles section to have about 30 different scents to choose from. I am very pleased with how all the spring stuff turned out, so please check it out and let me know what you think!

Weekend was pretty blah. Had a migraine for most of it, which made it impossible for me to do most of the stuff I wanted to get done. I did take all the pictures for my candle site so the new updated site should be up later today (woo-hoo!). Visit frequently! We have a lovely new digital camera that takes amazing pictures. I was taking all the obligatory pet pictures this weekend, getting a feel for the camera. Maybe I’ll post some later. The cat hated me by Sunday afternoon because I kept shoving the camera in her face.

So SMG won’t appear on the series finale of Angel. It’s kind of a bummer, it would have been kind of cool. But it looks like they are going to deal with the Buffy-Angel-Spike love triangle without her. But I really hope the finale isn’t only about the two of them moping over Buffy.

Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz have split up. I think it’s because they never got over the fact that they already had the same last name.

Meet Lilly, the four eared cat. I wonder if she can hear out of all of her ears. She’d be extra hard to sneak up on. (Ba-dum-bump!) Anyway, she was just adopted from a German shelter by a nice family. Good for her!

Georgia bans female genital piercings.

There are so many things wrong with this I don’t know where to start. But here goes:

1) Just female genital piercings? What about male genital piercings?
2) If women want to shove metal through their clit, they should be able to do it, dammit. Georgia legislature, keep your grubby hands and buggy eyes the hell away from my cootchie.
3) It’s punishable by TWO TO TWENTY YEARS IN PRISON. I’m sorry, who does this hurt, besides the person getting the piercing? Why is this an “offense” punishable by prison time? WTF?
4) It makes no exceptions for religious or cultural custom. Way to be culturally sensitive.

What’s next, people, outlawing tattoos? Is the government slowly but surely trying to take away everything that makes people individuals, lets them express themselves?
