Being suppressed isn't a good reason to be happy.

You're alive with food to eat and a roof over you head, you have family members like your aunt who care about you, you have friends, and you do have things you love, even if you can't access all of them.

Oh, those doctors weren't joking when they said stress is making me sicker! It's like my upper body punishes me for stress nowadays. How am I supposed to avoid feeling my emotions.... ?

This is one of those times Inner Heart would be handy, to know what others are feeling deep down.

• Proof James Senior Is Not Disappointed
  
  1. Years ago, he happily told me, quote, "I'm going to put little Prudences inside of you!"
  
  2. When someone asked him if he would prefer a big family of sons or daughters, he said,
  "It doesn't matter to me."

• Proof James Junior Is Not Disappointed
  
  I know he's not. He's too young to really know brothers and sisters are different yet. I can't predict how he'll feel when he does realize he's The One Guy, almost certainly before his next birthday.

Y'all folks are men. How would you feel about the gender ratio, in my husband's shoes?

Umm, try casting a Patronus?

In my opinion, it's better not to know.

My thought would be, "More boys would be great, but I'll love my children in any case."

I don't think that response tells anything.

Click here! I couldn't figure out how to embed this poll.

Someone said her real name sounds like money. "This bag will be six millicents." Oh, speaking of money, let me tell you about a sign I saw today!

The sign looked like this:

Quote:

FREE LUNCH
12:15-12:45
On Thursday
Budget Meeting
ON TUESDAY

Why don't they have the budget meeting and free lunch on the same day? Bribery is at least better than trickery! People who have both good brains and good eyesight are going to only show up for the lunch.

It's not fair! All I wanted was some stupid TV shows! Why do these shows have to go to a stupid channel that I can never have because all Pay TV providers here ARE PRICKS! AND THE STUPID HULU AND HUBWORLD WON'T LET ME WATCH THE VIDEOS BECAUSE I'M NOT IN THE US!

Local TV? They won't even bother! Write in to them and the only answer you're gonna pretty much get is either "We decide what's good for you, just sit back and enjoy", or worse, "hahaha! NO!". They don't know their viewers, otherwise the recent racist ad about Ramadan wouldn't have aired and received tons of backlash from angry non-Muslims.

Hell, if you think Indonesian TV stations are bad, you've just never tried following a show on Malaysian TV. (Hint: Even Indovision, the primo satellite provider in Indonesia, has Boomerang, the abovementioned stupid channel that I just can't get over here. Take that as you will.)

Thus my descent into using questionable methods to obtain the episodes, which has now also been curbed thanks to said internet censorship blocking filesharing sites.

It's just not fair!

All right, there are a lot of votes and I don't know who voted for what on most of them. Please tell me what you voted for. "Funky" was suggested by the same silly person who, when I asked for name ideas for a character based on James in another universe, said something like, "You should name him Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen so he can be your Number 1!" It turned out that was a Spongebob reference.

I'm now a sitting duck with no defense...

A repeat of the Stanman incident can happen and there is no defense at all...

Does this look unsure to you? IDK, I tend to keep on quoting that line from Spongebob.

Apparently her real name is the same as Barbie's. No wonder I thought the name Millicent flowed with Barbette's name. I had forgotten all about Barbra Millicent Roberts being Barbie's full name. Well, Barbette's name is a coincidence, and we'll never know if Millicent is a full coincidence or not. Millie will probably find out some way or another that she shares names with the world's most famous doll. Oh well. She won't be teased for it, because it is obscure information.

On another note, I'm very angry tonight about things having to do with work. Without wanting to admit it, I probably knew what's happening would happen. ("Officially winning and, in application, losing.") I think I'll probably exit my job and exit Jubilee & Eulalia from the premises as well. There's just too much drama going on between me and higher-ups, and it's not helping my stand on social justice nor is it helping any aspect of my health. I love the boys, I'll offer to tutor them for free if that will appease their parents. When we have the log cabin, likely by Christmas 2012, I'll host my own school and be my own boss.

I feel like a failure at everything... which is nonsense. I am, at least, for some crazy reasons beyond my understanding, loved by family and friends...
