I prefer Sean Bean with shorter hair.And more stubble.
Today was hard at work, the first day of the internet crack down. I did discover I could access the newspaper so I read some of the controversy over some billboards. The billboards are a picture of a couple's bare feet in bed and say Best Sex Ever. It's for a church and they are doing a series on sex. How sex is for married people and good sex is important to a marriage and sex outside marriage can feel good but is emotionally unfuflling. Stuff like that. But people are upset because it's SEX! And Church. (and the church meets at a school, which churches have been doing here for decades but suddenly is an issue).
And omigod! There's a church talking about sex while at a school and omigod! Students are going to start having sex at school because the church is talking about it! And is pro married sex!
It's really quite stupid. Then my blood pressure went through the roof, the newspaper has a blogger who is getting married and she blogged about how they weren't certain things in their wedding because it felt sexist and uncomfortable to them. (ex: the bride and groom are being walked down the aisle by their parents, the person marrying them will say "you may now kiss" rather than "You may now kiss the bride" ). The comments were full of people calling her a lesbian and saying that this is ruining the sanctity of marriage and how her fiancee should run from a harpy shrew.
The bloggers has made the remarks along say what you want we're still getting married our way.

I prefer Sean Bean with less clothes. But I'm predictable that way.
Argh.
I went in to the student health center today for a physical -- I needed them to fill out a form for the Israel program. Figured it would be no big deal. Mostly it was, except that I'm due for a tetanus shot booster. Again, no big deal. Except that the doctor won't let me get the shot if I'm pregnant. I'm not pregnant. She asks me when my last period was, and it was too long ago for her to believe me that I'm not pregnant. I tell her there's no way I possibly could be pregnant. She still wouldn't give me the shot until I took a pregnancy test.
So, I took the stupid test. As expected, it said I'm not pregnant. I got charged $40 for this pointless test. And with the time it took to do this test, the appointment ran overtime, and I had to go teach, so there wasn't time for me to get the shot. They only give shots during certain hours, so I've got to go back tomorrow to actually get the tetanus shot.
Oh, Hil how frustrating! I knew student health clinics had a tendency to give all female students pregnancy tests (a friend of mine had to have a pregnancy test when she went in with a broken ankle, I forget the reasoning, if there was any - I hope it wasn't so they could make sure they could x-ray her, but now I'm not sure), but I didn't know they charged for them. That sucks. And pushing the tetanus shot back to tomorrow is evil icing on the cake of wrongness.
You should go get pregnant tonight Hil, just to show 'em.
I was JUST thinking that!
How frustrating Hil. I am so sorry.
For very particular values of "should".
What a pain in the ass, Hil. I'm sorry.
I knew someone once who was given an impromptu pregnancy test as part of the exam at our university health center. Needless to say, he thought it was pretty funny.
