What do you wanna talk about?
Since it's boring on here today, I'm trying to think of what we can all discuss, but I've got nothin'. Anyone have anything to say?
Re: What do you wanna talk about?
Here's my attempt to throw something out there. I'm having one of those days where I'm wearing a horrible outfit and my hair is a giant clusterfck. I washed it this morning, which means I had no time to style it, so it's in a bun, which means fly-a-way city. I keep catching my reflection in this picture frame on my desk and I want to burst out laughing because I look so terrible. I'm wearing a top that has a draped neck and I keep imagine pulling the fabric over my head and hiding my whole face and hair.
It's impossible for me to feel like I look ok when my hair looks like this. Can't wait to straighten it tonight so I can look human again.
Hope you enjoy bar trivia
I've never been to anything like that but I've seen it on sitcoms! Have you gone before? Is there a prize?
2. Southseas, good luck to your boobehs...
The Dr brought his son w/ him to the office today while he saw two patients - then he went to the hospital to round so he left his son here. It's fine, he's a good kid.
He seems to be really smart- I would be to if all I read were non-fiction books and watched CNN.. (he's 7, BTW).
He was telling me about the new boeing 787 that's coming out (or is out).. it's a real plane, we googled it after he told me about it. He was reading a book about airplanes while his dad was seeing patients. He's traveled all over the world at the ripe old age of 7. Last month he went to France & Italy (i knew about france, didn't know they went to Italy).. he also informed me they are going to London this summer.. lol, wonder when the Dr was going to tell me about that one?
I'm also dying of anticipation over our Bahamas trip. It can't get here soon enough.
Lauren, I'm also having crazy hair, and I flat ironed it this morning. This humidity is just stupid. My little fly aways are going crazy. I really need to get it cut/colored, but I'm trying to wait till at least July so it's closer to our bahamas trip.
I think that is the location my step-sister works at
I love my crazy child!
My Bio
I got my haircut this weekend. I requested "the Rachel" haircut from 1994. You know, from the TV show Friends. Am I lame that I wanted an almost 20 year old hair style?! Ha. Whateve. I am a little behind the times.
Also, I am debating on only having one kid. I am sick of TTC. But I am going to finish up all my testing before I make the final decision. I am just looking forward to moving on with my life.

lol.
Last night Chris said, "I can't wait till this sh*t is over, I'm sick of hearing about her."
I might be guilty of coming home and turning on HLN so I can hear all their opinions on the case.
I was thinking about the case this morning: If she does get the dp (which I don't think she will but if).... it's sad how many people will be celebrating.
The whole thing is just incredibly sad. I mean, yes, she killed her daugther (possibly) and she "deserves" whatever she gets (i guess). I have conflicting feelings on the dp. ...
I have noticed that the older I'm getting the more my thoughts are changing on various topics. I don't know if thats good or bad.
lol! I'm so glad my H watches it with me. He will come home from work today and is guaranteed to ask me what happened with the trial!
And MrsJason, you will have a 2nd child someday. Don't give up, that's crazy talk. You had one, you will have another. Maybe it will be like I always tell my girlfriends when they are dating and going through one wrong guy after another. "once you stop looking it will hit you in the face". Maybe that's a really ignorant and stupid thing to say about TTC because I know there is a lot more to it than a random meeting of a strange guy, and I know how much you want this and are physically and emotionally vested, so I hope you don't think I'm a jerk for saying that. It''s my way of saying I just know it will happen.
Well thanks! I hope that's the truth.
The weird thing is I am not much bothered by the idea of one kid. IDK, maybe that's me protecting myself emotionally. Believe me I would love to have another kid, but for whatever reason it's not really heartbreaking to think about only having one child. My H and I have been talking it over and he really wants to go for #2 so I am not giving up just yet. But yeah, my emotions (or lack thereof) have caught me off guard!

I'm not against the DP so to speak, but IMO one possible murder is not enough. Life absolutely, but death, I don't think so. Maybe for like some pcycho who eats people or something but I just don't see this as a DP case.
Yeah, I don't really think this is a DP case. But what's weird is I think Scott Peterson did deserve the DP and the motives were basically the same for both CA and SP. But I guess the difference is SP murdered his PREGNANT wife. Well, wait, Caylee was defenseless and completely trusting of her mother, so that should be the equivalent of SP's evil.......
Oh gosh, I am just glad that I am not on the jury and I am just glad I don't have to make this decision.

Lol. Earlier this year, I wanted to model my haircut after Rachel's hair circa 1997! So not quite as old-school as your request
I couldn't find a pic of her online so I paused a Friends episode on my dvr and took a pic of her hair with my phone! Yikes. But then I didn't even end up showing it to my hair stylist. It's not like I really needed a picture, the hair style was just long with some layers, nothing she couldn't figure out!
I totally remember when my best friend in 8th grade got the Rachel in 1995 or 6. Well... she tried to get it! Her hair was not the right texture and she looked awful. I felt bad for her but we were also kind of always in "competition" with each, like middle school girls always are, so I was kind of happy she had a bad haircut :P Evil
I don't really see this as a DP case either. Terribly tragic, of course. But in my mind the DP is reserved for the absolute worst of the worst of the worst - and as sad as this case is, I don't feel that way. And if I were a juror, I just don't think they state would have convinced me with what they have that she purposely killed her daughter, with premeditation, beyond a reasonable doubt. I could not sign my name to that DP verdict.
The most recent DP case I worked on literally made me feel sick to my stomach, the crime was so evil, sick, and coldhearted. I really felt that one warranted the DP, without a doubt. In my mind, this case is completely different.
This case just makes me sad, because no matter what, we'll never know for sure what happened. The only people that know that are poor Caylee and whoever killed her. And no matter what the outcome of the trial is, poor Caylee still had to die way too young and that won't change. It's just so, so sad.
