Yeah... Uh Huh...

Of the family that lives nearby, I am the sole adult female. Oh yes, there are others- many others, but of the ones we are close to- I am the headmistress when it comes to all the cooking, and all the holiday gatherings.

I enjoy it.

However, being the headmistress has some tough responsibilities- such as planning and cooking the entire Thanksgiving meal. And doing all the Black Friday shopping. I love both. They make up my two favorite days of the year. And the planning for them starts weeks before, thanks to places like Black Friday Ads having all the sales listed before they come out in the papers. Nothing I enjoy more than waking up at 3:30 and heading out at 4:30 in the morning to go shopping.

It's an unwritten role in my house that despite whatever else may happen- nothing interrupts my rituals involving Thanksgiving and Black Friday. Sadly, not everyone in the world is willing to adhere to this role... as I went out last night to pick up a few extra items, and this happened to me:

First, everyone is alright. Had a little one in the car, actually sitting on that side- but still everyone is alright....

Except my plans for today and tomorrow.

Augh... teenage drivers.

I would bet that dinner went off with lots of hair tearing and cursing, and was beautiful. Hope it was a happy one.

Guided by practical experience and not theory, especially in medicine Kennedy hate crimes rider may doom Hatch's sex offender bill By Robert Gehrke The Salt Lake Tribune WASHINGTON - A fight over federal hate crimes legislation could torpedo Sen. Orrin Hatch's push to strengthen the nation's sex-offender registries and clamp down on sex crimes. The Senate Judiciary Committee gave quick, unanimous approval to Hatch's bill Thursday, clearing its way for consideration by the full Senate. But Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he plans to try to attach language to a bill that would require tougher sentences, provide federal assistance and offer grants to prosecute hate crimes - those motivated by hatred for a race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...

Boyfriends...

I sometimes wonder if certain men have some sort of animal DNA breed into them. The type of DNA or whatever it is that makes animals ritually preform certain actions. Like lions, when a male lion takes over a pride it'll often kill the offspring of the previous male, before mating with the female lions and creating cubs of it's own. I only wonder this, because it seems like there are an overwhelming number of men out there that end up killing the children of their girlfriends, not all of them do- but on a case by case comparison between girlfriends killing their boyfriends offspring and boyfriends doing it, it just seems that it's a lot more common amoung men. NOT THAT ALL OF THEM DO THIS... there are some great boyfriends/stepfathers out there that actually take care of kids as if they are their own... but then we have cases like Christopher Thunborg and Kashon Scott. Thunborg was babysitting his girlfriend's 11 month of baby in March when police say he caused ...
