These made me think of Kymberlie, so I had to share them.

The Top 14 Signs You’re Married to a Liberal

14. In your wedding vows, “love, honor, and cherish” were replaced with “legitimize, empower, and respect her reproductive freedom.”
13. Pile of burned Ken Starr effigies in the back yard is starting to block the sun.
12. Supports Al Gore for President in 2000, but has no idea why.
11. After a poor performance in the bedroom, you find yourself enrolled in a federal program to correct your shortcomings.
10. To rectify years of persecution to women, she makes you wipe your own ass.
9. Misses your funeral to protest the harsh sentence given your killer.
8. You casually mention your “Euthanize the Homeless” idea and — BANG! — no sex for a month.
7. What, the family budget is *BALANCED*? Quick, let’s get to the mall and buy something!
6. Insists his socks are not mismatched, they’re “diverse.”
5. He was a tireless advocate of gun control until the impeachment hearings started. Now he owns a rocket launcher.
4. At the height of passion, cries out, “Tax me!!!”
3. It’s bad enough that he looks like an extra from “Deliverance” — now he can’t keep his loudmouth Cajun trap shut on those talk shows.
2. Constantly pelts your cats with ketchup, screeching, “Fur is murder!”
1. She’s got the kids playing “Barbaric Imperialists and Innocent Native Americans” again.

I am so thankful that I have good friends. It has been raining all afternoon, and I didn’t sleep well last night, so I am in a grumpy mood. But I had SuperJ John to listen to me on IM and comfort me. Then Kymberlie & I went to eat lunch with at Olive Garden, where one of those *cool* glasses they have accidentally fell into my purse and left with me. I had Naomi to lean on for support this afternoon, and just like she always does she had kind comforting and wise words for me to make me feel better. Then Kymberlie shared with me how she almost passed out at her OB/GYN appointment. Those appointments always freak her out. She said it didn’t help when the doctor was talking about the equipment that they use to the intern that was with her, and then describing what they see when they look in those girly places. Poor Kymberlie. She said she had to lay down & they had to bring her water. I tried not to laugh, but I think that it is simply *hysterical* that she faints at the doctor’s office. I would understand if it was because of a shot or something like that, but not a routine exam! All in all it was not a bad day. I’ll feel better later when I get home and lay down for a bit. I am very thankful though that I have such good friends.

Today’s trivia: Any month that begins on a Sunday has a Friday the 13th. There are two this year – in April and in July. Pretty cool, huh?

Jelly Bean Chicks! Happy Easter! (Found here – thanks Naomi!)

My dad sent me this through e-mail tonight:

Windshield Wiper Lesson from a Child

One rainy afternoon I was driving along one of the main streets of town, taking those extra precautions necessary when the roads are wet and slick. Suddenly, my son Matthew spoke up from his relaxed position in the front seat. “Mom, I’m thinking of something.” This announcement usually meant he had been pondering some fact for a while and
was now ready to expound all that his seven-year-old mind had discovered. I was eager to hear. “What are you thinking?” I asked. “The rain,” he began, “is like sin and the windshield wipers are like God, wiping our sins away.” After the chill bumps raced up my arms I was able to respond. “That’s really good, Matthew.” Then my curiosity broke in. How far would this little boy take this revelation? So I asked… “Do you notice how the rain keeps on coming? What does that tell you?” “We keep on sinning, and God just keeps on forgiving us.”

Who can drive in the rain again without thinking of this one???

Nothing quite as tasty as the good at the The Rude Food Hall. Could you imagine the look on someone’s face if you offered them a Peppermint Pecker? Thanks Naomi for passing that link along. Thanks also for listening to me tonight and giving me great sound advice as always. You are right – as usual.
