It went by quickly. We started a new novel in some of my classes and finished up Anne Frank in another.

The weekend went by quickly, too. I guess that is okay, though, since that means the end of the school year is coming up more quickly. Only FIVE more weeks left of my contract! I'll be glad when it is over so I can focus on some other things.

On Friday, Ray and I went to his boss's Christmas party (yeah, it was a little late). It was at her house in Matthews, which was HUGE. It was like 3,000 sq ft for 3 people. I met his colleagues, which was cool. There was A LOT of drinking going on. Neither of us had much, though. I was kinda bothered, because his boss had her 2 year old at home and he was up and around all that drinking. At one point, he was going downstairs and said "bring the beer, guys!" I was like WTF? His dad was also cursing in front of him, saying GD. I didn't like that too much.

After the party, we headed back home and watched some TV then went to bed. I had wanted to sleep in on Saturday, but woke up at 7:00. We saw Spidey 3, which was just okay. It didn't meet my expectations by a long shot. Later, Dad and Sheila came over so we could take them out for their birthdays. We went to Luke's and the food was GREAT. My only problem was that I ordered a drink, a Vodka Sunrise, and it tasted funny. Yet again, I was served a TEQUILA Sunrise (happened a few weeks ago also). I knew it was kinda strong and halfway into it, I was feeling hot and very fuzzy. I stopped drinking it and when the bill came, Tequila was on there. I cannot drink Tequila. It makes me feel very strange.

We went by Blockbuster and rented "Little Man" to watch. After watching it, Dad and Sheila headed back home.

Today, Ray and I headed to Cola to watch a baseball game. The cocks won it! We bought our tickets from a guy I talk to on the site (I had agreed to buy them a couple weeks ago, then another guy I talk to on there tells me this morning he'll give me a pair for FREE, but I didn't want to back on out my previous agreement).

We headed back halfway through the game (the sun was bothering me), bought groceries, and have lazed around since. Billy and I have worked on the site, which is going extremely well. There have been over 700 posts in just over a week's time and we have 40 members. I am very excited about it!

the weekend was pretty enjoyable.

saturday, we worked on the site and did some cleaning. we had to meet ray's brothers and dad at ryan's in lancaster for dinner. we had plans to cook out with billy and brad later, so we just got a salad and drinks. the salad bar cost ONE DOLLAR less than the mega bar or a steak dinner! WTF??!

we came back home and then billy and brad came over. ray grilled burgers while billy and i did some work on the site. it is looking very good!

today was a slow, lazy day. we lazed around the house and went to the driving range. that was it. tomorrow is monday. damn. only three weeks of school left. i will be SO glad to be done with it.

there is a possibility that this website could pay out a little. i signed up for google's adsense. everytime someone clicks on an add, i will get a little cash for it. SO IN OTHERWORDS, GO TO THE SITE AND CLICK ON ADS FOR ME!!! :-) i'll need that money as i have to pay for the domain, space, and ads i am putting up on other sites. hopefully, in the next few months, it will pay out enough so that i can start a little bit of a payroll for billy and a couple other folks who are helping me out.

there is plenty of work to be done on it, but i'm glad to have the domain registered and it's available for folks to post on.

i had some help with a gamecock fan i knew from FGF. he does that type of stuff for a living, so he gave me a great package and is walking me though it.

hopefully in the next six months we can get 100 users. that is my goal for now.

This has been a BUSY week!

On Monday, there was a shooting at VT! 33 were killed, including the shooter. What a tragic event.

Tuesday, I had a meeting after school and we watched American Idol and House.

Wednesday, I found out at 8 am that I had a meeting after school until 6:00! Sorry, no can do! I have to know a couple days in advance and can't stay at a meeting with such short notice. I went for a while, but left. I had some things to do at home and then Ray and I met Billy and Brad for trivia, which was fun.

Thursday was more or less a breeze, too.

Friday was Hokie Day. I made some VT stickers to pass out to the school and had my kids write VT poetry. They did an excellent job!

Today has been sort of a lazy day. We bought some groceries, did some cleaning, that's about it!

I am rather sad, as today was my last day of my THREE week break before having to go back to school. It has been a nice break and I have rested up quite a bit.

We had a nice weekend. On Friday, Ray was off because of an infected spider bite. His leg was swollen up quite a bit and he couldn't make it to work. We lazed around the better part of the day and watched "Angel." For dinner, we tried out "The Coast Grille." We hadn't been there before, but enjoyed it. They had great food. I had a steak and Ray had shrimp and grits and a BBQ sandwich. I also had a "sex on the beach" drink. It was YUMMY! After that, we headed to Best Buy to get a couple of things and came home.

Saturday, Billy and Brad invited us to dinner with them. They cooked chicken and hotdogs, which were very good. After dinner, we talked about going out. I suggested bowling, as that was one of the few inexpensive things I could think of where we could have fun and do a little drinking.

We went to Striker's and they told us it would be a 45 minute wait on a lane. Ray acted pissy about it to the clerk. I had a talk with him about that later. We went inside the bar in the alley and did some drinking and Ray sang a couple of karaoke songs. There was one girl who kept singing and she was very large. It wasn't so bad that she was large (b/c I can't say much there), but she had on clothes that were easily two sizes too small. We could see her thong and ass cheeks hanging out of her pants. It was NASTY. Ray sang "Folsom Prison Blues" for his first song. He did a very nice job. He does great with Johnny Cash. The next song he sang wasn't as good--"Hey Jude." I've heard him do that song before and do it well, but it just didn't work out as well for him that time.

We had some drinks. I had four "sex on the beach" drinks, as I like those a lot. A couple of Billy and Brad's friends came over--Mike and Chris. They seemed pretty cool, but got into a fight and had to leave. I'd like to hang out with them again BEFORE they get drunk, as they seem like nice people. Finally, we got to bowl. I bowled the best game I've ever bowled! I ended up with 4 strikes. I was doing very well until the GHETTO popped in beside of us. It was awful how they were acting. They came over in our lane and sat on our bench. Brad spread our stuff out so they would move. That didn't keep them from walking over in our line of sight or being extremely loud. It was very distracting. We bowled one game and then left.

We headed back to Billy and Brad's after bowling. Billy, Brad, and I played rummy. I kicked butt at that. Billy and I also had a few shots of goldschlager. We had a good time. We ended up leaving around 1:00 or so. Ray was dead tired, so I drove, although I probably shouldn't have. I went out of my lane a couple of times. I was really careful, though.

Today Ray and I went to his mom's for Easter dinner. I didn't really enjoy it, though. We went to Karen's afterwards and chatted for a bit, then headed back to Rock Hill. We had to go to Wal-Mart to run some errands. We came back home and watched some more "Angel" and Ray made spaghetti for dinner.

I've done some work on lesson plans and we'll go to bed in a bit.

Let's face it. Women are partially to blame for society's downfall. It all started some decades ago when women decided that they were equal to men. As hilarious as that is, it was actually taken seriously! Now, women can almost get the same jobs as men and can almost earn the same wage.

And what has happened since when were taken out of the kitchen?

Well, let's take a look at the children of today. They are violent. They have no respect. They get into all sorts of serious trouble. Many of them now are "learning disabled" and have all sorts of behavior disorders.

Why is this? Simply because while women are out earning some cash, the children are being neglected. They are stuck at home by themselves or in crappy daycares. What do they do while at home by themselves? I suppose the parents would love to think that little Bobby or Sally is studying. Ha! They are definitely not studying. Here's what they are doing: watching TV, playing video games (violence, anyone?), looking at porn, and possibly doing each other. So, thanks women for screwing up the kids.

Another thing that has happened as a direct result of taking women out of the kitchen and putting them in the workplace is an increase in sex and unplanned pregnancies. Let's face it. Back in the day, maybe women engaged in pre-marital sex, though not nearly as often as now. If they did, it was covered up or they had a quick marriage and that was that. Now? Aside from screwing excessively and getting the STD rate up, women are having a multitude of unplanned pregnancies. Some abort, other choose to raise them on their own. What happens? Aside from the kid being neglected and growing up to be a dumb shit, the woman gets on government assistance. And we wondered where all of the money was going....

The solution would be to take women out of the workplace for the most part. Much stands to be gained.

1) No sexual harrassment cases and companies save big $$$!
2) Decline in STDs
3) Decline in abortions/unplanned pregnancies
4) Decline in amount of government assistance paid out
5) Kids become less violent and stupid
6) Dinner (with a possible cheesecake for dessert) will be on the table
7) Less money spent at department stores--or charged on credit cards
8) Homes will be cleaner
9) Women will stop being as arrogant and acting like they wear the pants

I have had a VERY busy day. I started out by straightening up around the house and washing some clothes. I then went to Charlotte to meet Ray to bring him some pain medicine (he has what I think is a spider bite on his leg, which hurts badly). After lunch, I went over to Dad's work and chatted with him for a while.

I had to go get groceries, come home, and make Ray some dinner. I left around 5:50 to go out to eat with the other teachers. I didn't really want to go, but was kinda hoping I'd get drunk, show my ass, and be asked to resign. Lot of hope for one night, right? Eh, didn't work out. It was the most BORING night of my life! It was a dreadful four hour event, which would have been longer had I stuck around.

We ate at a Mexican restaurant, which was HORRIBLE. I had a couple of drinks there. I requested a VODKA sunrise and got a tequila sunrise. I won't even drink a margarita because I hate tequila. I thought the sunrise tasted funny, but so did the food I had. I drank two and got to feel very tipsy for a bit. Now, as much as I drink, two drinks would NOT get me going, but it did. I didn't really say anything, but I felt it and got a horrible headache. Stupid people can't get Vodka right... Fortunately, it took so long to get our meal ordered and brought out to us, I felt better from the headache before we left.

We went to the bowling alley next. Again, muchos boredom! I had another couple of drinks there. I had fun razzing one of the people there while we were bowling. We tried psyching each other out to make each other bowl badly. One of my insults included snowblowing, which I unfortunately had to explain. That may get me points in the firing category--NOT. It's sad to say, but that little explanation which I was embarrassed to whisper to one person is probably the mildest sexual reference I've heard since I started working there. Definitely not the only "dirty" thing mentioned tonight.

After one game of bowling and a Amaretto Sour and Sex on the Beach later, I announced my departure. It was 10:00 and I missed Ray terribly and decided to head on home. I really didn't think I could take much more of the "over 30" party, anyway. This is the first event I've attended like that, and it will be my last, for certain. It's just horribly annoying when a bunch of middle-aged women try to act like some young, high school crowd.

When I got home, I grabbed a bite to eat, since my dinner was so horrible. Ray told me he enjoyed the dinner I made for him. We hung out for a while and he had to go to bed. I just finished watching "House," which I recorded on the DVR. That episode really got to me. To sum it up, House had to do a surgery on like a 21-year-old week baby in his mom's stomach. When House pulled him out a little, the baby's fingers were moving and touched him. That just made me break down crying. It's now April 4th, 1 in the morning. In two more days, I would be 7 months pregnant with only two more months to go. Sometimes it is so easy to push stuff out of my mind and pretend things are normal. Things like that or passing the baby section in Wal-Mart can bring me crashing to reality.

I'll try not to go off on that too much. On another note, the baby was much larger than it should have been at 21 weeks. Noah was close to that and he wasn't nearly as big as that baby. That baby's arms were probably 2.5 times as thick, which was incorrect. Anyway...

Tomorrow (well today) Billy and I are supposed to meet up to discuss our business plan. I hope all works out.

I've had a pretty nice weekend. Ray, Billy, Brad and I went to Myrtle Beach. Billy and I started talking about going to the beach about mid-week. Krys had invited Ray and me, but those plans fell through and I still wanted to go. I booked a room for Friday and Saturday night at the Carribean Resort and Villas. It was a whopping $330 bucks for just two nights! I have NEVER paid that much for a room (save for our wedding night), but for what we were getting it seemed like a good deal. It was oceanfront, nonsmoking, one room with two doubles, a full kitchen, and a living room with a couch (that you could pull out to sleep on) and a double bed that pulled out from the wall. The room looked very nice, so we decided to get it. Since Billy and Brad couldn't afford to do meals plus the room, Billy and I worked out a deal (which may be the beginning of something cool). We agreed that Billy would clean my house in exchange for paying for the rooms.

Billy came over on Thursday and cleaned my living room, both bathrooms, guest room, and master bedroom from top to bottom. They looked GREAT. He also did a little cleaning in the kitchen. Ray and I were very pleased with the results. We had been talking about hiring someone to clean it for us, since we never gave it the good cleaned it REALLY needed after the old lady moved out. Anyway, Billy did a great job and now we are in the talks of starting up a little cleaning business (he'll do the cleaning and I'll run the business aspect since I have a lot of experience there). I hope that works out!

On Friday, Ray and I packed up and headed over to Billy's to pick him and Brad up. We headed out around 2:30 and Ray had to stop and buy gas plus do a couple other things, then we headed on to MB. Ray drove a little over halfway there and Billy took over for the remainder of the trip. HOLY SHIT! He scared us half to death with his driving. I have never been more terrified for my life. We gave him hell about it and it was pretty funny, but damned if he'll be driving my car again (LOL). Traffic was hell as we got closer, so we decided to go ahead and eat before checking in. I suggested going to Dick's Last Resort, as Billy and Brad had never been there before. It's a slightly overpriced face, but funny as hell. The waiters are complete smart-asses and give you white hats with awful things on them. The food wasn't great, but it was a fun environment so I guess it all evened out. Billy and Brad treated us there, which was cool. I felt bad about letting them pay for our's, but I guess that was making up for us not letting them contribute to gas.

After we finished at Dick's, we headed over to the hotel. It was NICE! Much better than the place we stayed in for the Taylor Hick's concert. It wasn't the nicest hotel I've ever stayed in (by far), but it was VERY clean and the set up of the room and the view were GREAT.

Once we were settled in, we headed down to the lazy river and spa. It was very nice and we had a good time down there. Later, we came up to do some drinking and watch TV. We played a few drinking games, which was fun, but no one got blitzed.

Saturday, we headed out to lunch after we got up. We went to TGI Friday's and it was VERY good. I have been there maybe once, but it had been a long time. After we finished eating, we went over to Wing's and got some mats for the beach plus a skim board. We headed down to the ocean after we got back and changed into our suits.

Ray brought some money down to the beach so we could get one of the umbrella setups. I tend to burn badly and figured we'd need it. It was a whopping $30!!! I didn't really want to pay that, but knew it was either that or burn to a crisp, so we paid up. Billy and I got in the ocean and waded out pretty far. It was cold, but felt good at the same time. The water was a little too cold for Brad and Ray. I later went and sat beside Ray and drank a few Fuzzy Navels. We also played football. Later, we tried the skim board. DAMN! We suck at that! Billy and Ray had a couple of embarrassing falls each, which hurt. Some kid tried to show us how, but in the end, I think we acknowledged that we're too old. We gave the board away to some other kid. We then went back up to the pools and spa for a while. It was fun!

After showering off, we went out and played putt-putt. We had a lot of fun with that and Ray and I decided to try to go golfing Monday. It has been over a year since we golfed, so it is time! After putt-putt, we went for dinner. We had trouble agreeing on where to eat and ended up splitting up for dinner. Billy and Brad went to Planet Hollywood. I was kinda indifferent to going there, but Brad wanted to and I knew that Ray HATES that place. We went there in Florida and Ray was ready to bolt. We wanted to go to Margaritaville. I love Jimmy Buffett and had never been. We ate at a Margaritaville stand in Disney World and got some really good nachos and tacos. However, once we got there, there was a line of at least 50 people, so we left. We found a Mexican place outside of Boardwalk and ate and watched some of the basketball game.

We picked up Billy and Brad once we finished eating and headed back to the hotel. We chilled out for a while and later called a cab to go to a club. We had planned on all of us drinking so much that it would be unsafe to drive, so called a cab to take us and planned to walk back (well, Ray planned to walk anyway). The lobby called us down for the taxi, we went out, and there was a LIMO waiting for us! Turns out the rates were the same, so we hopped in! Ray and I have never ridden in a limo before, so it was really fun. The total was like $6.50, so Ray paid that and added a tip on to round it up to $10. Not bad for a ride in a limo!

We went to Studenbaker's. Now, I have been to that club a few times before. Every time, there was a mix of people in there (early 20's to mid 40's). We always had a great time and enjoyed it. That wasn't the case last night. There were a few younger and middle-aged groups, but mostly it was OLD people. I'm not talking 50's old, but nursing home old!!! We left after maybe half and hour and started the "short walk" back to the hotel. Ray said it was just over half a mile, but damned if it didn't feel like 3 miles! We made it back and mixed some drinks and drank for like 4 hours and played games. We had a great time back in the hotel.

Since Billy and Brad had to be back in Rock Hill around 12:30, we had to get up pretty early to leave out early enough to make it back in time. We didn't go to bed until well after 3 AM and got up at 8:00. We all pretty much felt like shit. I offered to split the driving with Ray, but he declined. So, we started out for the ride back. Billy and Brad slept a good part of the way (lucky bastards!). Ray had to stop for gas. He ended up putting over $30 in the tank again. Yikes! My car has had over $60 in gas in two days! Talk about burning a hole in our pockets! LOL (maybe the 4Runner wasn't that great of an idea...)

We were getting close to home, close to getting them back when they needed when we ran into a damn wreck. We sat in traffic for probably and hour and a half before moving on and getting them home. We got to their townhome around 1:35. Ray felt bad about it, but there wasn't anything he could do to help it (except use the non-lane or grass that I suggested). Ray and I stopped at McHale's for lunch, which was really good and are home now. We played basketball for a while, but have to run out to get a few things later.

There are a lot of arguments for pro-choice, which include that it’s unethical to kill some babies (those conceived due to rape), it helps control the population, and some people are completely unfit to raise children.

Us pro-lifers are willing to make some exceptions to ensure that many lives are saved. However, pro-lifers and pro-choicers will no longer have to spend time plotting the perfect murder. What I have here is the solution to all of our problems. Well, our abortion-related problems, anyway.

Upon birth, ALL babies should be sterilized. This sterilization will be reversible, of course. When the time comes and a sterilized couple decides they want to enter parenthood, they will have to pass a series of examinations before being having the sterilization reversed.

First, the potential mother and father MUST have a stable and sufficient income. If they don’t have at least three years of stable finances, they will not be considered. Second, the potential mother and father must have no recent history of drug/alcohol abuse. We don’t want any crack babies. Third, the potential mother and father must pass a psychological evaluation. If there is any indicator that either the mother or father will physically or emotionally abuse the child (or each other), it’s a no go. It will also hurt their case if there is any indication that the potential mother or father will let their child play violent Playstation games.

Other requirements for reversing the sterilization process will be added in due time.

Just so you know, by the time this is put into effect, the chances of death to babies who are being sterilized will be less than .00000001. The same goes for problems in reversing the sterilization.

Cost will not be an issue, so don’t worry your pretty little heads about it. In 2019, the United States will have control of 20 or so countries and will be completely debt-free. The U.S. will be rolling in dough.
