he's heading into the perfect storm

I have the hair of Bozo the Clown today; it is very disturbing. My hair, when growing out from long, goes through several ghastly stages, and this is the stage when it waves out to the sides in a decidedly clownlike manner. Dammit.

The NY Times this morning had 3 featured "International News" articles, and all of them in some way were related to how religion fucks everything up.

1. Israelis killed some more Palestinians

2. Hindus killed some more Muslims

3. An article about a Muslim terrorist group (who will undoubtedly be killing someone, sometime)

It drives me crazy. I would like the peoples of the earth to go back to worshipping things like water and trees and animals. Please?

Okay, we went to that middle school meeting last night and it was traumatic (for me). We went into the school and were looking around before the meeting, and that's when I saw them. The girls with breasts. They were about 13 years old and were wearing Britney Spears-type outfits (their stomachs were showing) and were tall, and they had breasts. I nearly wept right then and there. Because I suddenly realized that Boy is going to be entering the Badlands, full of insecurity and confusion and mixed-up emotions and bodily changes. He is going to wake up one day conVINced that when there are other people around, they are all looking at Him, and he will have this delusion for several years. You remember that time? I remember it vividly, and I Hope, I pray, almost, that he will be one of the lucky ones who coasts through, relatively unscathed.

I don't know why it didn't occur to me before to do this, but you know how puzzled I've been about the Google searches for Bodybuilders in Heat? I assumed (foolishly) that the bodybuilders in question were male, but that is not the case. The reason I know this is because I had the idea to do my own Google search for Bodybuilders in Heat, and not surprisingly, it's the title of a porn film. I should have known.

Not much planned for the weekend (as usual), but Francisco is making a good dinner (BFL friendly) tonight and he rented a movie. It's Castaway, which he and I have seen, but Boy hasn't, so he'll see it and we'll see it for the second time. Francisco and I walked at lunch, and I feel I have earned a glass (or dare I drink 2?) of wine to go with my meal. Speaking of BFL, as of this morning I have officially lost 10 pounds. It has come off my bod pretty evenly I think, because there is no one region that you could point to and say, "oh, There's where that 10 pounds was". I feel strong and determined and happy about my progress. On Sunday I will end my 6th week and will be halfway through this first round of BFL. It's a good thing. Props to Catie who started the whole thing. She's the best.

I'm going to head home now, so love to all and have a good weekend,

E
