This is how sexy it is to be a parent:
Bunny-System comic
I have been looking for this url for a long time. Now I found it. I am bookmarking it and putting it in several online places I frequent so I never have to search through the crappy ass archives again.

If you are a lumpy pear-shaped Goddess of sex, you should also keep this comic within easy reach. 😀
Reading about race
Given that I’m so white I glow in the dark I spend a noticeable amount of time thinking about what I can and should do to raise a child who has a good understanding of race issues and who isn’t a twat. That’s an important bit. Some of the good stuff I’ve been reading lately include:

http://nerdsevolving.blogspot.com/2009/08/what-black-women-were-white-women.html
There are others, of course, but I closed some tabs too quickly.

It’s time for a hair cut. I’m looking around the internet and these are the things that are popping out at me. Kind of the point is that I am trying to cut off the damage from dying my hair. Right now it mats so badly in half an hour that I can’t wear it down.

Interesting point of view
Before people jump down my throat I AM NOT POSTING THIS BECAUSE I AGREE WITH EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF INFORMATION IN THIS POST. Did I say that clearly enough? Please don’t start lecturing me because I am stupid enough to believe something like this, thanks.
But anyway! With that lead up! Here is an article that says we should be grateful to the Duggars because their kids will be paying for our Social Security: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203917304574413792994350108.html
A neat blog post
I found this chick through mothering.com. As much as MDC is kind of wearing through my patience I have learned some neat stuff there. So here is a really interesting post about how toddlers are/can be triggering to abuse victimes. It gave me a lot to think about: Raising My Boychick
Oh –good to pass on
If you are like me and you spend much time wondering if you are pregnant due to inconsistent cycles, trying to get pregnant, trying not to get pregnant, whatever, I recommend heading on over to: http://www.saveontests.com/ You can get pregnancy tests for as little as $.34/test if you buy 100 of them. 100 pregnancy tests sounds like a really lot but given how irregular my cycle is I am willing to bet I have used at least 40 or so in my lifetime and I’m not done with testing. I’ve only had these cheap things for about the last 20. That means I probably have already spent over $200 on pregnancy tests when I could have spent $34 for all the tests I will ever possibly need. Sounds smart now doesn’t it? Ok, technically they expire in about three years but still! I could have bought a bunch of these every three years and still saved a lot of money. 😛 You can buy them in packs of 5 for only $3.25. No really, that’s awesome.
Random thought exercise
If I ever win the lottery (I really should buy tickets once in a while) my family would of course want money from me because they are thoroughly charming souls that way. It would be kind of cool to buy a piece of property outright that is not very built up and put a couple of houses on it for them. Specifically houses like these. They would have completed individual little houses. I would probably even build a “town hall” in the center of the little houses so that everyone had a big dining room/kitchen to hang out in when they wanted to get together.
It’s really not an awful idea.
Holy crap!
Why haven’t I heard about the Harry Potter theme park?! (Site has obnoxious music.)
Maybe my want list just got longer. Screw Scotland. 😛
A link from Cos
If you haven’t read this, you should. It’s about men and rape.
I’m cleaning out the memo section on my phone. We found a bunch of neat bracelets in New Zealand that struck me as potentially interesting incognito collars: http://www.f3design.co.nz/cms/index.php?page=browse&key=/BODY_ADORNMENT/bracelets
How cool!
There are a bunch of other benefits brought up in the article as well. Nature is kind of neat. I like seeing how things interact.
One more reason to homeschool.
Yes, I’m aware this is an unusual case. The attitude of the school administrators is sadly not unusual: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=103215199

Here is a fascinating article on the differences and similarities between FGM and circumcision. http://www.circumcisionandhiv.com/files/darby_mgm_fgm_maq_0907.pdf
It’s 23 pages long but absolutely worth the read.

Flying with children
So I’m looking up information about international travel with babes. I found a really neat site so I thought I would share: http://flyingwithchildren.blogspot.com/2008/11/as-flight-attendant-for-thirteen-years.html
