By relocating ourselves, we shake loose the shackles of expectation.
Oh I so relate to this. I will never fit in around Jacksonville. And it's not that I mind not fitting in, but I do mind intensely that my children are made to feel less than because they dare to be different. I can't even begin to tell you how Nate has blossomed away from his old school and having the freedom to interact with other kids strictly via online classes. Yesterday, he turned to me, and completely out of the blue said, "I love school, Mom. I really love learning again because I feel like I can."
So I know I can give him that, but I want a broader sense of that for him and for Abby and yeah, for myself. I want to be able to breathe again and feel as if I'm myself.
Your link is wonky, bon.
I can't believe someone bothered to register a whole domain.
Hi ita, have you met the internet?
Well, godaddy is having a sale.
have you met the internet?
Yeah, I used to own bigwhitepanties.com. I should not be surprised.
I tried to fix it! It works for me!

Oh, my god. That's what it does. I just went to the domain, not with buffistas.org attached. How...crazy.
I am frustrated. My bug fixing seems thwarted, and I can't remember my domain administration user name. I'm a flake.
bon bon made me LAUGH. I wanted to post more but I'm headed to bed instead.
Oh, god, there's a guy from Barcelona on OKCupid IMing me who wants to talk dirty with me. I guess I could just close the window, but I feel I should talk my way out of it graciously.
I have a pretty boy from Sweden who does the same thing, but also wants to talk to me about science all the time. He's a little cutiehead.
