| | So......
I guess I won't be nominated for a Grandmother of the Year Award any time soon. (Not that I expected to be.) Aside from being the World's Greatest Procrastinator™ I excel at nothing, and I'll be the first to admit it. Sitting in a fast-food-smelly roomful of screaming out-of-control kids is just not my idea of a good time. I'm old and cranky. Deal with it.
The thing that bothers me most about being a Grandmother is not knowing if these future generations of my bloodline will have any future at all. Who knows what the world will be like in 20 years when they are adults? With the state of things today, in comparison to 20+ years ago when I brought my own offspring into the world, I have serious concerns.
There is every chance they'll be drafted into military service to serve in the war in Iraq, which seems to have no end. (Oh, wait... that's not a 'war'. That's an occupation....oops, I meant.....liberation.) If not there, then somewhere else in the middle east. It doesn't appear we'll be achieving peace in that region of the world any time soon, since it would seem that our leaders have decided that we need to be the World Police and force our idea of 'democracy' down their collective throats. Or bomb the hell out of them if they balk.
Fundamental differences are not easily solved. Maybe that's why our cultures were put on opposite sides of the earth.
IF the US still exists at all, that is. As long as satan's minions continue to control and further infiltrate every government, including our own president who would be king, implosion seems imminent. Slowly chipping away at our foundation of liberty and freedom, eventually it will all crumble away before our eyes. (Are you getting all this, Big Brother??)
Or our grandchildren's eyes. Or our great-grandchildren's.
Shades of the Roman Empire, 21st Century style.
Some legacy, huh?
I think I need to stick my head in the sand and stop reading the news.
Enough with this shit.
I've got to psych myself into Birthday Party Mode.
TGIF.
Happy weekend xangapals.
Happy blogging.

...I really appreciate them. I should tell you that when I posted that "I dont like the way they make me feel" the context was the side effects. Those side effects are starting to go away. Some days are better than others. Today is a pretty good day.
