Lost Dog in Texas

Lost in Mesquite, Tx 75419

My cousin, Mike an American solider just back from Korea has lost his little dog Sojo. I have put his face on every site I can find, hoping to find him and reunite him with his family!!! I will add his picture.... I hope someone has found him and will check with the vet as he is chipped. Mike is now 2 hours away from where Sojo has been lost but they are still calling vets and checking human society for him daily!

an on we go

I realized yesterday, it has been more than 3 years since my last Marlboro! That is phenomenal! My friend Misslissa , said "all my friends have quit, cept me , I need to quit." I hope she quits! Her health is important to me! she asked , "how did you do it?" I said " cold turkey" she said " no way! How bad was it?" I said " eh not as bad as I thought originally."

Now when I think back to the 3 years or so ago, I know I was ready to stop. It was trying at times , and a couple seconds I believe I picked up the cigerette and put it in my mouth.... (didn't light up) and thought "can I really quit?" With those minor "thoughts" I did it without a hitch! Mentally I was thru ! Physically I had it a tad bit more difficult. Withdrawl anyone?! That part of quitting is interesting. I heard some famos person say the other day on t.v. they were trying to quit with a patch and the nightmares he would have with this patch on... well lets just say his conculsion was to take off the patch. I wanted to tell him, "it's not the patch buddy." The withdrawl is the reason for the nightmares, restlessness, sleeplessness, as well as panic attatcks at times. Over all it is well worth the 3 days of withdrawl! I have talked befor about my experience in the quitting process, not here but in other avenues and at different times. It all seems to be the same for me, nothing different from the start. I would say I am very lucky! I hope everyone that has a habit that is not so good for them, and they get to the point they want to stop, that it is as easy as it was for me!

Oh , I say easy , because I smoked for 21 almost 22 years. If I can do it without looking back, so can anyone! (everyone!)

Jury Duty

2 weeks ago , I get mail! Yay! , it is a summons for you guessed it. Jury Duty! Ofcourse I personally do not mind, civic duty, privilege, God given right as an American! Now with that out of the way, why do people "try " to get out of jury duty?..... Well pay and or work I guess firstly. I don't mind so much , because I work at home! :) yay me ! ( your jealous, I know !) Mostly I feel like people don't want to perform jury duty because they are lazy! Yesterday and today I had jury duty. The first day , my fellow jurors did an awful lot of complaining. "so and so was summoned , they were only here a couple hours.. didn't get picked. " blah blah blah. There were alot of complaints from the "jury box". Lots of " I hope this doesn't take long." "I have to drive 2 hours to get home, I was hoping we would be done in one day." ( that one lies , as to where she lives for health insurance. but it is too much to do her civic duty and serve on the jury about peoples lives. Not sure what all I could say about that , I bet I can think of some choice things though!

Also as far as "people" go , when do the bubbles people live in disolve? I can not believe that only 1 out of all 12 people can be reasonably open minded about the possibilities of differences in lifestyles. I am definetly dissappointed, however I now know why people are against gay marriage. Dark ages people! GET OUT of the DARK!

Now I have resorted to screambloging :( It sincerely makes me sad! I , first day thought "can't be everyone here that doesn't want to be here." So bad so that they won't at least try to open up some cobwebbed minds and listen. But, yes But, I was wrong. One women today is somewhere, feeling even less than a person today then yesterday , because we the jury found resonable doubt. I hope "the defendant" , found enough pause (could have ruined his life 4ever)befor the "not guilt " to never put his hands on, threaten, intimidate, or make someone feel scared again. If that , at least was accomplished I will sleep better. Know today I am praying for peace on one torn up womens soul, and 11 people to wake up and smell reality. As for my jury duty days, well they are over at least for another 12 months. I can go forward in life for at least that long without talking to another bass ackward, hicabilly, don't know why "you don't just leave" ignorance is bliss silly son of a juror # I don't ever want to see your face peon. :) bb
