    your REAL friends will tell you you’re FULL OF SHIT… but they’ll also hang around and tell you why and what you can do to make it better.  I am blessed. 

  • shut up Donnie, you’re out of your element.


    every day I go here to laugh my fucking ass off: 
    natalie_dee_huffing_it_up_every_day


    okay, I’ll fess up to my middle name… Hancock.  misspelled on my charge plate as Hamcock.  oh great, thanks. 


    also, I’ve been asked to update on my “date,” but the problem is I’m not sure if it was a date.  this is a friend of mine, y’now?  Paula says it’s a date.  but then, I’m the one who said, “let’s hang out sometime,” so that’s more friend-ish, yes?  still, either way, I’m good.  I could certainly use a friend, and also, as you well know, I’m never averse to “gettin’ some.”  so anyway, semantics aside, I had a great time, a really fantastic time.  he’s witty, bright, easy to be with, kind, appears to have integrity, and obviously has unparallelled taste in drinking buddies.  we’re going to play golf saturday if he can get a sitter.


    I like playing golf in the spring and fall, less people around… less people to avoid.  fewer people to ask me to join their twosome ::shudder::.  yes, I can make all the banter and seem rather social on the outside.  however, my gooey center says, “the light, the light, it burns us!”  really, I am just out there to be one with the ball, break a few tees, get cheat grass in my socks…  I like to golf with other people, but only when I choose to, you know?  yeah, I am aware that I have control issues.  I do my best to go with the flow but that doesn’t change my natural tendencies.  I hope it doesn’t rain or snow.  I hope I didn’t miss the last sunny day of the season.


    now here’s where I do my “I’m really really divorced!” dance!!

  • No easy walk to Freedom…


    sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you can realize complete and lasting change.

    from http://www.electoral-vote.com/


    SCOTUS news: Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist announced last week that he was going to return to the Supreme Court yesterday. He did not return. According to the New York Times his office released a terse statement saying that the Chief Justice spent 7 days at Bethesda Naval Hospital where he was treated for thyroid cancer. He underwent a tracheotomy so he could breathe and he is now being given both chemotherapy and radiation treatment. Medical experts say this evidence suggests that the cancer was not successfully removed and that even with heroic treatment, patients with this type of cancer usually die within a year. Should the election end up in the Supreme Court, it is not known whether Rehnquist will particpate in the case and vote on the outcome. Should he decline to participate due to ill health, the deadlock in the country might end up in a Court itself deadlocked 4-4. In such an event, the lower court ruling stands but no legal precedent is set. An alternative scenario is that Chief Justice Rehnquist resigns and that President Bush makes a recess appointment, which does not require Senate confirmation. If Bush were to appoint a new justice without Senate confirmation who then cast the deciding vote to make Bush president I fear for the future of the country. Let us hope somebody wins big today with no litigation. Do your part and vote.
