propaganda

Did you know that it is very good politics for when a President is under fire, racial issues tend to arise to move attention away from the real problems at stake.  For example, Andrew Jackson had the Nullification Crisis, which was quickly followed by the Trail of Tears.  Does this not seem to bother anyone else?  Like seriously?  Yes, Immigration is an issue.  A state issue.  Yes, the 9/11 mosque issue is an issue. Is this more important than the fact the China is legitimately upset with us as a nation because some extremely intelligent people keep spending more money that they don't have to get us out of debt?  Is this more important than the fact the our entire legal system is completely whacked?  Checks and balances frankly don't exist anymore?  Exhibit A: California's ruling on Gay Marriage.  I don't care if you are for or against gay marriage, let's not get started on that hateful debate but you should be concerned that the way that that was passed is NOT the way that this country was set up.  The voice of the people should not be able to be overturned by one court ruling.  Can you spell UNCONSTITUTIONAL?

Now, go do the right thing

I am so proud of dr. laura.  You may know that I adore this woman.  Basically, I think she might walk on water.  Recently, she has been under a lot of fire and so she has chosen to leave her radio show in December (tragic) so that she can speak more freely without her sponsors and the station influencing what she can or cannot say.  *insert here a discussion of freedom of speech* But Seriously, she just gets it.  Her advice, though harsh at times, is accurate.  It is generally not the easy way out, but is the best.  We need more people in this world like her.  Who knows?  Maybe one day I can aspire to become the next Dr. Laura?

today

I hate bridezillas.
Had a bride today.
4 hours in ONE dress.
yep. That's right.
She looked at herself for 4 hours straight.
The first dress she tried on she wouldn't get out of.
But when she did get out of the gown
she bought it.
and a pricey veil
and a slip
which meant,
money for me
which made me happy. :)

Basically,
I can read peoples energies.
The last 4 brides I have worked with have all bought the
VERY FIRST dress that I pulled for them.

p.s. I bought a swimsuit that is super cute!  I think I will add a ruffle to the top to make it look more vintage and for additional coverage.  woot!
