No message without a mess!!!

Perhaps it's the stress of my prelim being 2 and a half weeks away, perhaps I'm hormonal, or perhaps I'm just innately a raging heifer!  Whatever the case, it's a DARN good thing I'm feeling pretty confident about everything going on in my little life right now because there will NEVER be a victory without some trifling little snit trying to fix the fight!  So here it is, world!  I'm opinionated!  Until last year, I THOUGHT I was just about as opinionated as they come.  It turns out, I'm in outstanding company as many of the personalities I have encountered in the last few months have made me feel like quite the little lamb!
As it turns out, however, I don't have the proper genitalia for having a known opinion.  When gay men state opinions identical to mine, they are praised with "you better preach!" and "That's Right!  SAY it like it is!"
Because I'm a female, maybe because I'm a lesbian, I'm evidently expected to be some shallow, thoughtless, empty troll lacking in wisdom and expected to keep her thoughts to herself!  Am I not living in 2014?  Have we reverted to woman's suffrage without my knowledge?
THIS was spoken to and of me yesterday:
you are one of the main people suffering from diarrhea of the mouth..... you constantly have unnecessary opinions. Personally I do think you are rude on over step your bounds. That being said I avoid even talking to you how many other people talk to you rather than tolerate your douchebaggery. Now have several seats sweetie.
I'm a MORE than accommodating person!  I would be MORE than happy to withhold my opinions if they were in fact insulting or ignorant.  Because I think people need to do what's right, what's healthy, and what's best for personal progress, I'm rude and have diarrhea of the mouth?
Okay!
When I signed up to be a promoter for EOY, I had a dream that one of the most magical systems in the country could finally be represented in my home state and my home state could finally be represented in this wonderful system.  I knew this wouldn't transpire without complication, but I never dreamed that before my event even went down in history that something like this would happen.  I'm not even sure I'm prepared to imagine what kind of defamation will transpire after the fact!  Perhaps instead of representing EOY I should have brought something similar to the Special Olympics to Female and Male Illusion in Illinois?  All the words are flowery and all the competitors are winners.  Is that what needs to happen?  I'll happily buy every single performer in this state flimsy little medals and tell them they're all winners if that's what they really want.  I'll only speak love and light, and offer warm cookies and milk at every event I attend.
Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
I'd much rather speak my mind, speak the truth, and speak to a group of ENTERTAINERS, not performers, who want to make HISTORY and fight their asses off for a SERIOUSLY prestigious goal!  
Don't want to be a part of that team?  I'll happily show you to the flimsy systems where everyone gets a crown and the powers that be will sooner talk behind your back than speak a public word of truth!

There aren't words..

Had you told me a week ago what my life would look like today, I would have given you classic Jen-eye and asked but surely enough, Friday afternoon after a whirlwind 48 hours of what ifs, a bright, beautiful, smart, insightful, loving, hilarious little girl moved into our home!  We survived our first weekend quite swimmingly if I do say so myself!!  I really struggled with how it would feel to have a child around full time and if I really had that "parenting thing" in me.  Do I ever!  Both of us have adapted quite nicely to our roles and for as long as God will keep her here, we're looking forward starting our new family in our new house as if we're new creatures!  Hard to remember what our boring lives were like pre-kiddo! ;)

WHAT will I do without facebook?!?!

It's been a week and a half since I gave up Facebook for my experimental Lent activity.  For the first couple of days, I literally didn't know what to do with my phone or laptop.  I would stare aimlessly at both devices trying to figure out how to manage these contraptions without my lifeline.  In ten short days I've learned a few things. 1.)  I have been seriously neglecting the "real" people in my life.  You know, the ones who are actually a part of my life outside of the trap that is Facebook  It's amazing how when you're not constantly synced with FB, you feel disconnected from the world, yet after a few days of real live human interaction, you realize just how much you've been missing with the ones you  love! 2.) Turns out Facebook isn't the only source of legitimate news!  Before social networking, we actually had to reference the news, whether via TV, a newspaper, or a search engine.  It's nice to learn of the news without all of the...
My heart is pounding, my palms are sweating, my mind is racing, and my cup is running over!  Yesterday I was just a wife!  Today I'm a Mommy!  Today my life changes forever and I'm already so in love with this girl I can't handle it!  Today is a good day!  Today is the day I add the title of "Mom" to my self-description! Our home was owned before us by a fellow Foster Mom.  She has been a great support to me over the past two weeks and shared this with me yesterday! My life will undoubtedly be changed, and undeniably for the better!   Is she here yet?????
