You're Thailand!
Calmer and more staunchly independent than almost all those around you,
you have a long history of rising above adversity. Recent adversity has led to questions
about your sexual promiscuity and the threat of disease, but you still manage to attract a
number of tourists and admirers. And despite any setbacks, you can really cook a good

When I got pregnant with my son, Omri, it was easy. My husband and I decided it was time. I got of the pill. Waited the appropriate three months and then "wham, bam, thank-you ma'am." The deed was done. 38 weeks later, we had a 6 lb. 4 oz bundle of joy. And what a joy he is. When you are childless and still enjoying it, everyone tells you, "Just wait and until you have one.

I suppose Omri (my boy) doesn't really grasp Halloween yet, but I can't wait until tomorrow. We are carving the old pumpkins tonight and putting the finishing touches on the ol' Halloween costumes.

Apparently this is not allowed in the Catholic faith - unlike molesting children and smacking women around.

It got better when he started returning the phrase. As in, "No, you're a Nerd Bird." My husband added the alert, so now my son and I yell "Nerd Bird Alert" just Lornanoreply@blogger.com0
