a new meaning for "MOM"

It just hit me that I'm going to be a mom. Suddenly that word carries an entire different meaning. It used to be a word I associated with whining, needy, demands. An emotion of comfort, safety and love. Now it's a word weighed with responsibilities, expectations, happiness and apprehension.

spank me

Study: Spanking Kids Leads to More Aggressive Behavior

Well, I don't know if I agree with that. I was spanked and I'm ok.

After reading the article carefully, this is what I understand from the study. No spanking under 12mo and no spanking more than 2x/mo before age of 5. ah...I see, that's why I'm ok.

Where have my blogger friends gone? People have stopped blogging and their last blog usually ends with something like "FYI I'm still here, just busy will try to blog more" That statement is worse than a goodbye! That's a complete denial statement because we all know, and records show, that that's pretty much the last blog we'd see for a while. There may be a few intermittent blogs but I think it's more the user checking in to make sure they haven't forgotten how to navigate through the blog site.

hmm.. wow, I'm feeling kinda bitchy today. I received a negative email last night and it's still pissing me off. It's something about how I didn't communicate a point to her, well, dang it, I can't communicate if I don't get a return call! Am I supposed to spead talk to get the message across on the voicemail?

What else is pissing me off? I was just reading through a Toyota forum about peoples opinions on Toyotas. Majority of posts state what they think then makes a clear point to state that their opinion is "just their opinion". why is that necessary to write down? it's a forum, of course it's your opinion, who elses would it be?

People who bitch about useless shit piss me off too. If you're going to bitch it better be something worth my time to listen to, but don't take two minutes of my life to tell me how your entire day was ruined because you ran out of eye liner in the morning and you didn't know what to do, and you got to work late, and now you're frustrated because you have to go to Target to buy another one at lunch because you can't show your face! Are you friggin kidding me? THAT ruins your day? That friggin email from the same person who says I have communication issues ruins a day.. not an eye-liner.

ugh, so irritated, I'm going to finish that 6" chocolate cake I have then go for a sugar high run.

CBS5 news:
There's a new pill for head lice, but prevention is best.
to avoid head lice in children, kids should avoid head butting.
In other words, no head to head contact.

PROUD

I'm going to miss the Olympics in Vancouver.
All the coverage and attention in Vancouver makes me proud to show off my hometown.
I love the "you gotta be here" commercial, and the many nice things new articles write about Canadians. We are nice people.

watch the Olympics

This is the only time I've ever been such a huge fan of the Olympics. It's only because it's in my hometown. I watch it just to get a glimpse of home and it makes me so proud to tell patients "that's my hometown!"

I'm bumming around online and decided to revisit Friendster. Remember Friendster? I always will, after all that's where I met my husband, through a mutual friend-ster. The site has made some changes with bright colours and a wall just like Facebook. Except everyone's dusty wall is now spammed with porn videos and half naked girls. Then I snoop around to see who is still making updates, but looks like anyone I care about have made their move.

I wonder how many times in my lifetime will I be recreating my profile, from Asian Avenue to myspace to friendster, facebook to whatever is next. It's an interesting way to review your perception of yourself.
