Black Out
19
Jan
I knew darn well that there were a ton of websites that were participating with the blackout in protest of the SOPA bill that is threatening so much of what we do online. Didn’t I feel stupid when I tried to help my daughter with a homework question and tried to find the answer on Wikipedia.com only to find it in the Blackout. Come to find out that there would have been a way to find the answer, but learn of it until later last night when it was on the news, sigh……
Domestic Violence
13
Jan
I got up way early this morning, my hips were hurting me and I just couldn’t get comfortable. Since Comcast took all but 8 channels away from us unless we buy one of their new digital boxes there isn’t much on in the morning except for news programs. I can’t stand watching this news any more, especially in the morning. There is way too much depressing news on, not a good way to start the day.
The only thing that I could find one other than news was Jerry Springer, which I never, ever watch. My nephew was on the Jerry Springer show a few years back and informed us on just how much it is all just a bunch on nonsense so I really don’t see the point of watching it knowing it is all fake. Besides being fake, it is all about people fighting with each other which really jerks my chain. How can they promote all of this physical violence and not expect the general public to act the same way and think that they will get away with it. In the real world when you assault someone you go to jail!
Day 9
09
Jan
Today is day number nine of being smoke free. It hasn’t been too awfully bad so far. I’ve been told that the first 3 weeks are the worst so I have a ways to go, but it’s looking good at this point. Been chewing a lot of gum and have ruined a few pencils from biting on them. LOL
Putting Them Down Once and For All
29
Dec
New Year’s Resolutions have never really been my cup of tea. But this year I am diving in, head first, with the promise of putting down the smoking of cigarettes that I have been participating in for way too long. The price of tobacco products has just gotten crazy and I’m tired of paying the high prices for something that is totally unhealthy for me. Wish me luck!
