This weather makes me grumpy

  1. Why is breast cancer fashionable? I am so confused by this. I tell individuals my mom has ovarian cancer and they give a small tsk, tsk then proceed to pass it off as not as serious, elegant, or as courageous of a battle as someone with breast cancer. This happened in clinical today. I divulged the stress of my mom's fight against her cancer and a lady proceeded to say at least she doesn't have breast cancer. The nerve! Breast cancers survivors are lauded with praise and respect while those undergoing similar chemos, surgeries, radiation, and HELL are placed several notches down the awesome ladder. Let's face it, cancer is cancer. Whether it affects your boobs, your butt, or your brain it all sucks and is all just as bad as the other. Get over your love affair with boobs. Without the ovaries boobs would not be possible.
  2. This is near blasphemous, but drivers in the south with religious identifying material on their cars are some of the most dangerous drivers on the road. I guess putting your life into the hands of another power makes it okay to disobey traffic laws, lights, and gives them the grace to drive over the posted speed limit. I really think a religious higher power would not tailgate, speed, run lights, or cut another off. They would cruise with the top down, playing some Beach Boys, and obeying laws dictated by others. I just want to make it from point A to B without slamming on my brakes, honking, episodic tachycardia, or fear.
  3. Cats suck. At least my Moxie and Royal are on the wrong side of the awesome chart.
  4. Daycare. Vehemently opposed. I don't understand why we as parents must shuttle off our sweet little babes to someone else for most of the day. I am glad I will have my MSN/FNP and a well-paying job, but it isn't worth it if I see Conor less than another caregiver a day. The whole institution is lame. He is too amazing not to be mine. I am too in love with him to be apart from him the whole day. Same with my other toddler Stephen.
  5. I want to grow down. Stay 25 with a decent head on my shoulders, but not the weight of the world.
  6. Cookies need to be delicious, fat-burning and CALORIE FREE. Especially Oreo Fudgees. I'm grasping now.
