On these particular topics...I completely agree!!

I really wish that someone would explain it to me ("like I'm a three-year-old") how it is exactly that if two men or two women get married, MY marriage is threatened!!!

These couples are not asking to be married in the church, because we know how that is looked upon...and that's okay. Just to have the right to go down to the city hall or to Las Vegas, for that matter and have Elvis do it, is something that everyone deserves the right to do.

Saying that "traditional marriage" is threatened by same-sex couples getting married, is really, quite laughable. I'm sure that "traditional marriage" was threatened in the same way 40 or 50 years ago by different races of people starting to marry each other (**gasp!** Can you imagine?!)...and...gosh...society is still functioning....life goes on.

There have been certain times that I wished I could just fly "home"....Christmas...Thanksgiving...July 4th...and now, we can add last weekend, November 15, to be exact, to that list. I so wanted to be there with those who were protesting (You know who you are!!!). I was there....in spirit...and now I was there, vicariously through all the pictures and posts that you have shared!!

In Japanese we say "otsukarasamadeshita" ....which loosely translates to "thank you for making such an effort....your efforts are appreciated".

Topic #3

Chocolate is good for PMS....and finally, thanks to this website, I have something to use as support when my consumption of chocolate is questioned at certain times of the month!

(Just for the record, I don't really eat very much chocolate the rest of the time...I'm more of a salty-snack eater!!)

This is what they said (in case you don't want to click the link and read down to the bottom!!):

Steadily maintaining sugar levels before and during PMS with plenty of complex carbohydrates such as fruits and whole grain cereals in the diet has been shown to help minimize PMS cravings and even address the other symptoms of a drop in serotonin levels, depression and anxiety. Don't ignore the chocolate altogether though. It's full of antioxidants and natural feel-good compounds, so be sure to include at least a few cookies and some candy bars in your PMS cravings treatment regime!

Note to self: must request more granola bars and Reeses' Peanut Butter Cups....oh, forget the granola bars....just ask for the Reese's!!
