Bull$h!t Dating Sites >:(

While sipping my cocktail and checking my various dating websites; I can't but help notice how they suck.  Why do I have to pay to see who viewed my profile?  Why do I have to pay to check my messages?  Where does the money go?  Unlike my childcare website, you pay for membership fees and access to a gigantic database of babysitters, child care and Au pair information; as well as the ability to view background checks, references, and reviews.  However, on dating websites, there aren't STD reports, background checks, or discounts to restaurants (good idea!).  So why isn't it a free service like...hmmm, social websites?

In retrospect, trying the whole dating thing sucks.  I don't go out, and I easily loose interest in looking...and it's only been a couple of days!  Also, I don't know if I have the capabilities of dating a civilian.  I have yet to date anyone outside the military.  Officially, I have not dated since...'06.  Therefore, I'm out the loop.  Do I even need a "significant other"?  Probably not.  I enjoy my weekends, and hanging out with my kids, and I'm just too busy focusing on personal affairs.  Unfortunately, it seems that every couple of months or so, I become lonely and need of someone to cuddle with.  However, I think that may be fixed with a body pillow.  So, here I am hopscotching back to square one.  I'm not mad about it, I just really don't care :]

Brown Eyed Girls

There are some days where I look at my children, and wonder what will become of their life.  After that, I think of ways to help prepare them for situations, that they should be able to control.  For instance, I remember getting in trouble in school because I was offended and arguing with kids about "your momma" jokes.  At that time, I was probably in the first grade, but I remember arguing my case to my mom, on how the kids were talking about her.  What she said, is something that changed my life; which was, "Nicole, they don't know me".  Instantly I understood, and had nothing else to say.  Lessons such as those, are currently work in progress within our household...and will be for a while. In fact, isn't it amazing how some people have no idea of who you are, and yet want to pass judgement on your beliefs, way of life, or moral character.  It's because of that, I look at my children, and wonder about all the things I love about them, and...

Hoopla Over Real Life Situations

America at times reminds me of a bipolar teenager.  Current idiocy is the bickering over a video, from which an incident occurred, causing a bad reaction, by a remorseful person.  When I first heard Rihanna's "Man Down", I couldn't help but "listen" to the lyrics, and notice how powerful the song is.  In fact, I was interested to see how the video would be made, to convey the words to the song.  When I finally watched it, I though it was a great video that detailed the day of a bright haired young lady in Jamaica, and the life changing events that follow. The video wasn't masochistic, or showcasing a good life induced with drugs and alcohol, or bragging about riches soon to be depleted.  No, this video was about a reaction to an assault.  Of all the things going on in our nation, this is what some parents chose to choose a fight with...not to mention it's on an entertainment channel, on a cable network.  The same people who probably frown upon a...

Ewww, that's just gross!

Every morning on my way to work, I pass by a dog park.  Within the area itself, everyone is very active with running, walking, and chatting with other dog owners as their pups played...just their way of beginning their day.  Flash forward to three/four hours later, and the dog park is transformed to a kiddie playground.  Not big kids, but babies and toddlers.  Am I the only one grossed out about this? Just this weekend, I wanted to rant as to why I should not have to pick up doggie poo (I do not own a dog for this very reason), and here in front of me are two worlds colliding.  I wonder if the stay at homes moms, nannies and au pairs know of the transformation.  Is that even sanitary?  I'd like to see the area's hand foot and mouth disease statistics, I hope they aren't staggering.  Is the community as a whole okay with this?  Why not build a playground area for the kids?  Of course I'm disturbed, because I know that not all of the own...
