Deer Body Slams

Last night as I was driving home, I had turned from one road to another which is a two lane road with a 55 mph speed limit.  I had just gotten up to speed when I noticed a figure in the road ahead.  I recognized it as a deer and I slowed down.  As the deer got to the right side of the road, I noticed that it seemed confused and scared.  It started back to the left side of the road, then back to the right; and I slowed even more quickly to about 20 mph just as it decided that it was going to run along the right side of my vehicle.  It ran quite a few feet and then body slammed the side of my car. I finally got stopped and it ran across in front of my car to the left side of the road.  I pulled off the road where it was wide enough and checked my car and couldn’t find any damage.

Too Cute

I was going to post about this awhile back and forgot to do it.   I came into my bedroom one day after emptying a bag of the items.  I had left the empty bag on the bed.

After a few seconds, I noticed that the bag was moving…… almost breathing…. then I noticed the reason why.

When they are so cute that you almost can’t stand it; it makes you forget the times that they are destroying your house.

Train of Thought Back on Track

Ok… so I remembered where my train was going. When I talked to my mother about telling the woman I was talking to that I didn’t understand why people do a lot of the things they do; mother said, “I don’t either.”

She continued, “I wasn’t going to tell you because I thought it would upset you.  But, Sharyn told me that she wanted to give you a wolf present that was something that belongs to the new boyfriend.  She said that he collects wolves, too; and that she saw something that she told him, ‘Mark would really like that,’ and that she wanted to give it to you.”

My response was the same as my mothers.  “Why would someone do that?”  In addition, why would she think that I would want something that came from the new boyfriend?

Dr. Laura

Was driving home yesterday and Dr. Laura was on the radio.  A woman called in about letting her mother-in-law have their infant daughter for the day every Friday.   She didn’t like it and wanted to tell the m.i.l. that she couldn’t; but that she could visit for an hour or 2.   When she said that her husband didn’t want to do that, Dr. Laura told her that it didn’t matter what he wanted because it was her ultimate decision because the child came out of her body.

That just ticks me off.  Women really do think of men as lesser creatures.  They are basically sperm donors and that’s all.  Even if the man is a good man and takes his fatherly duties seriously; he still is always subservient to the woman’s wants and choices.

My first reaction to Dr. Laura would be, “So, if a woman wants to eat her babies, it’s her choice and the man has nothing to say about it?”

I know that Dr. Laura stands up for men and tells women that they treat them badly.  But, that “man as second class to women” attitude is still sitting under the surface all the time and comes out ever so often when a woman says something like that.

It stinks……. reeks of misandry.

Misc Saturday Morning

Was playing CoD2 last night and was joking a little about whether it was a sin to “hate” and “strongly dislike” someone for killing me.  VCS was in a bad mood and started…. so I left the game.  I said, “I’ll see you all later.  I’m going since VCS is in a bad mood.”  I wasn’t in the mood to fight.  I was tired, still not feeling 100% physically, and with all that has been going on…. that is more important…. I just left.

One of the things that really riled me about the Macy’s incident is that it was supposed to be a pleasant experience for my mother.  I bought the card so she could get what she needed, since she wanted some women’s undergarments.  She mentioned that Macy’s had things she needed that she liked, so I bought the card at Macy’s.  I would have purchased it for whoever was going to treat her right and make the experience a pleasant one.  It WAS a Christmas gift; so it was important that it not be a negative experience for her. Beyond the fact that the people that work at Macy’s are supposed to do their job; I should not have to worry that they are taking something nice an turning it into a negative for her.

I feel like I might be getting another cold…. I wish people would stay away from me when they are sick.

Was talking with a couple of people at a place I work about various things like free-will, how people behave, the choices people make, things I have done, my experiences, etcetera.  A young woman there was asking me all kinds of questions.  It confirms for me that I’m weird.  She said I was a “unique individual”.  I said that I tell people all the time that I’m weird.

Uhm……. there was somewhere else I was going with that train of thought, but it done left the station.
