"You must be the change you wish to see in the world"
-Mahatma Gandhi
Hey guys/gals. This is just an FYI. I am going through my friends list. I'm going to be pretty ruthless about it as I am going to be switching to friends only soon.
Don't take it the wrong way if I remove you. In the past, I've typically accepted all friends requests. However, this means that if I want to post things friends only it is pretty much pointless as I have all kinds of folks on my list.
I'm going to go through my friends list and remove anyone that I haven't spoken with recently or who I really don't have that much in common with. There are a group of folks on here that love the drama and go poking around other people's profiles looking for it. And truthfully, if I think that your friends are crazy or one of the drama hounds, I'm probably going to remove you unless we are really tight.
As I said, it isn't personal so much as I am tired of all the cattiness in here and am going to restrict my GOLO profile and feel this is a good way to do it.

Check out http://catoftheday.com/
Go to "previous cats", then look for April 13, 2003.
That was Isis. She lived to be 26, quite a respectable age for a Torte Point Siamese. Losing her was like losing a member of the family.
My oldest now is Creamy, my avatar, who is about 13 and is VERY feisty ....

I usually keep the reader in suspense. Forgive me. More will surely come before the day is out. I need to write it.
All this stuff is fiction and no one exists.

They certainly don't seem to be! There were lots of them around where I grew up and were always great company as long as nobody tried to get cuddly with them.

BUT each dr has his own charm. We came into watch dr who with david tennat, then hubby got the chris eccleston ones off netflix. the first one with him, I didn't like, but by the time we made it through all of his, I did like him.
so, theres hope for the next.

He was throwing a fit for a pop (what he calls a lolipop) the other day, then changed strategies and said 'pop please?' - he had never said please before, and yes, he got the stupid pop....lol
I guess I"m glad I don't understand, because if I did, then maybe it would mean I was capable if such monstrous acts. Don't get me wrong- I get frustrated and tired and lose my patience...but the thought of HURTING either one of my kids (Even on their WORST day) is nauseating!!!!!!

Prices for food in U.S. grocery stores jumped 6.6% last year - the biggest spike since 1980 - underscoring yet again that inflation is a much bigger problem than government officials, or most economists, say it will be.
Of all food categories, prices for cereal and baked goods hit U.S. consumers the hardest, zooming 11.7% in 2008 over 2007. Prices for meats, poultry, fish and eggs gained 5.1%. Fruits and vegetable rose 3.4%, while dairy products advanced 2.7%.
It was the second straight year U.S. consumers were forced to pay a lot more for their groceries. In 2007, food prices at supermarkets rose 5.6%. Prices rose only 1.4% in 2006.
Consumers had to pay the price last year because food makers battled the largest spike in commodities they’ve ever faced, walloped by duel increases in key food ingredients and fuel, which all marched to historic highs in July, a month in which crude oil peaked at an all-time record of more than $1
