Congratulations J & J!

I'm so incredibly excited for you!

Can't wait to meet your new addition in Augustish!

Ri.Di.Cu.Lous.

I was in Target yesterday perusing the toy section and was absolutely horrified to see some of the dolls that little girls (and perhaps boys) are buying these days.

Exhibit A: "Glam Dolls" (whose legs are skinnier than there arms and are three times longer than actual legs should be...)

Exhibit B: "Bratz Dolls" (whose heads are GIGANTIC on top of their rail-thin, emaciated, anorexic bodies...)

Remember back when good 'ol Barbie was controversial because of her body shape? Now Barbie looks like the pleasantly plump stepchild next to the new generation of femmebots.

No wonder so many girls have body issues.

Unbelievable

I heard on the radio today that a daycare was being shut down to investigate alleged abuse.

Turns out, an infant was found in a back corner of the daycare with his/her pacifier TAPED to his/her mouth.

Are you kidding?!@

This alarms me on so many levels. And I'm not even a parent.
