Rambles

Just some random things...

Have you seen Francis Bean Cobain? Maybe not, but as a Nirvana lover, I have always been intrigued by the girl she was and now the teen she is becoming. Having parents such as Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain has to be hard, but it seems as though she is pulling through with a little bit of grace and a classic feminine style. To me it is almost eerie looking at her, because I see so much of Kurt Cobain in her features.




Next Topic:
Being pregnant has also made me afraid to eat. I get sick almost every time I do, and really I am just sick of it. And no matter if I am sick or not during the day, my body is waking me up at 3 am to be sick. Then I am up until at least 5. So needless to say, I have been just dragging.

Another Pregnancy thing:
Food. The only things I craved when I was pregnant with Ryan was oatmeal and apple juice. I could not get enough apple juice. Last night though, I almost succumbed to pregnant eating. You know like pickles and ice cream. Well, I had the bright idea to make tuna salad and dip corn chips in it. Glad I decided against the chips though, because once I really started to think about it, it made me a little ill.

News issue:
Did you hear about those teens in SC who on their way to a drag strip saw a black teen walking down the road and decided that he could be their punching bag. They beat him up and I read something about them trying to lynch him. The teens got six years in prison, but it was not tried as a hate crime. I know several peeps do not see the significance with hate crimes, but the only reason he was beaten was because he was black.

Another News Issue:
A man here got convicted and sentenced to 300 years in jail for child rape/molestation. I don't know all the details, but I do know he is not eligible for parole till he has served around 120 years. Now what is up with that judge in Vermont who only sentenced that molester to 60 days?

Last thought:
I have a feeling the US will be at war with Iran before the year is out. The EU was handling the Iran nuclear issue, and we just had to stick our nose in it. No wonder the rest of the world hates us right now. We are stretched thin. There is not room for us to invade Iran. Maybe that is what Bush is doing with reducing the number of troops in Iraq, so he has enough to fight Iran?
