My Mitzvah (good deed to all you goyim out there)

Completely despairing of the genocide in Darfur, I have made a donation with the hope it makes a difference.

After NBC's Ann Curry did a report from Darfur, and seeing the violence bleed over into Chad, I felt compelled.

I just don't get it.

What insanity - this creation, man.

Having a new niece means...

...you have to rescind your previous declaration that you will never do another family Thanksgiving.

...Hanukkah is going to be very expensive.

...you spend more time with your brother in the last 4 months than you have in the last 10 years.

...you're going to have someone you'll enjoy bequeathing something to! (Provided she doesn't turn into a jerk.)

...worrying.

...not enough kisses and hugs to give.

...so much love and not enough ways to shower her with it.

Hmph.

I'm going to cuss now...

As if the biker bar across the road from my front porch (owned by a former pro hockey player) isn't enough, now we have the Monkey Bar, an "over 21" night club and St. Charles' "only" night club.

And. It's. Right. Across. The. Street. From. Me.

I can see the damned thing while my dog is taking a shit in the yard. Whee.

So. Biker Bar. Monkey Bar. Oh, and let's not forget the 24/7 Gold's Gym juice bar. That one's going up at the entrance of my subdivision.

Yeah. I LOVE the smell of lost properly value in the morning.

Well, so much for the "conservative stronghold". That's what a man at the Claire McCaskill rally call St. Charles county "conservative stronghold". Well, there's conservative and there's "Hey, just let me rub my face in your tits for 10 bucks, honey."

I somewhat regretted moving here a few months ago - I'd lived in St. Louis county for 46 years - but I thought it was just me being snobby and I was going to hang in there and make a go of it.

Fuck that.

I are a Sthar!


You are The Star


Hope, expectation, Bright promises.


The Star is one of the great cards of faith, dreams realised


The Star is a card that looks to the future. It does not predict any immediate or powerful change, but it does predict hope and healing. This card suggests clarity of vision, spiritual insight. And, most importantly, that unexpected help will be coming, with water to quench your thirst, with a guiding light to the future. They might say you're a dreamer, but you're not the only one.
