Hmmm?
Miss Lyndsay: This has been on my been on my mind since i watched "We were Soldiers"
The Spy: Shoot.
Miss Lyndsay: Why in the HELL don't soldiers where bullet proof vests!?
The Spy: Well.. we do.
Miss Lyndsay: oh?
The Spy: But they're horrible evil things.
The Spy: You can't move in them.
Miss Lyndsay: i figured that as much
Miss Lyndsay: but i would think people would develop better ones seeing as we have such great technological advances and things
MIss Lyndsay: if I were going to go on the battle field...all I know is i would have one on
The Spy: Well... they could. But the military buys from the lowest bidder who meets their specs.
The Spy: You'd think they'd buy us the best, huh? :-)
Miss Lyndsay: exactly. that is what is upsetting

Experimental love
My son’s father has never seen him in the 8-½ months that he has been in this world. I gathered the nerve to hunt down his phone number the other day. I called him, my stomach turning. I asked him if he would sign away his parental rights, and he hesitantly agreed. Tristen was playing on the floor while I was speaking to him, his baby giggles loud enough to be heard on the other end of the line. I asked Nathan, if he could hear his son...he cried. I cried then, nostalgic and haunted feeling returning for a moment. I realized at this point that I am no longer bitterly angry with him for turning his back on us. I realized then that I felt pity for him and sorry for him that he has no clue what he is missing. I felt disgusted by him - he lacked the strength and responsibility to tell me that he wanted to change his life for his son. I don’t know why I spent over an hour talking with him about our son. I called to get an answer about legal stipulations – and that was it. It was a difficult phone call. But I am glad now that I can let go of the hatred that has been with me for over a year.

*sniffle,gasp,sob*
My Cat, Nebula, has been missing a little over 2 days....I got her when I just found out I was pregnant (alittle over a year ago). She was my company when my boyfriend decided to leave me (for my best friend) at the most difficult time in my life. She alone, spent weeks on end with me. I have grown very close to my kitty. And now she is gone....Damnit! :( .

intriguing issues (over aim)
StarNocturnal: can there be such a thing as loving someone and the longevity of beeing IN love with someone? or the being in love part just kind of fades and you just love them?
FeminaErecta: for me love is something a bit different, it's more like a constant give and take, both giving and both taking - commitment and trust and respect of course
FeminaErecta: and intimacy... intimacy though is different too
StarNocturnal: so it is less of a feeling for you and more of actions?
FeminaErecta: love is a verb, baby - it can't be static
*applauds* thank you Ms. Lauren, You have made me expand on some issues I have been thinking about lately. Although, I am a little confused and still pondering over this entire love issue. I am beginning to think that love is something one should not analyze - at all.
