You've got serious issues, as you know.  This is a no brainer.  You need to deal with yourself before you try to deal with someone else.  You need to get rid of the guy.  It sounds like he could use some "me time" as well.

Ann Arbor News:A Michigan football player was nearly killed in a horrible horseback riding accident. He was thrown off the horse and almost got trampled. Thank God the K-Mart manager came out and unplugged it.

hehe.

Awesome! How's the big buildup in Cowtown? I miss Cowtown this week of the year.

 It's madness here.  Everyone just jumped in Mirror lake last night, so there are random clothing items all around campus.  Scarlet and Gray everywhere.  TV and Radio stations are reviewing the best Michigan jokes as I write this.  You know the drill.  :)

Every email I get from my mom is about the Bengals and all my friends back in Cincinnati constantly update their facebook statuses regarding the Bengals games. It is really nice seeing them do well for a change though. They always have some really great players (Ocho Cinco is pretty sexy haha) so it's nice to see them finally get their stuff together... make that stadium worth the tax payer money. haha

I too think Ocho Cinco is sexy and funny too. I love the story of Cedric and how he turned his personal life and career around after getting kicked out by the Bears. I hope they make the playoffs.

 I live in Columbus.  Most of my friends are huge Bengals fans.  I happen to be a steelers fan myself.    I am glad we don't have a NFL team here.  We already have Buckeye insanity in this town.  It's enough to make my head explode, especially with the Michigan game on Sat.   

Bengals are playing really well this year now that everyone is out of jail.  Good for them.  No doubt it's a nice change!  Though, if I have to hear "who dey", one more time some one will die. :)

I'm going to take the test today after work.  I just keep praying and praying. 

I know that tests may come up negative but can be false. I think I'm going to go home early and get it over with. I am just not able to concentrate at all. 

I just had oral surgery last weekend to remove wisdom teeth and I know that antibiotics can limit effectiveness of PC pills so I didn't bother starting a new pack before that...what was the point. Oh man. I have to take a test pronto.

 Take one test today, then take another test in two weeks.  Sometimes it can take awhile for the HCG hormone to reach the appropriate level needed to register on a pregnancy test.  This is commonly done to avoid those pesky false negatives.  Good luck. 

It sounds like you have improved a great deal!  Good for you.  Posted what you did is not something to be embarrassed about.  No regrets!  :)

I agree with Mooni.  This sounds really messed up.  I would see if you can start working more days/hours, save up some money of your own and get out of there with your kids.  Sorry.

CPTBunny-

I think you should use the 2 1/2 hours to study at your college.  I know having an anxiety disorder makes this really hard for you, but I bet you could do it! 

I am all for death penalty for particularly heinous crimes.   Primarily, child rapists/murderers.  The best example would be the John Couey, a convicted sex offender, who kidnapped, raped, and murdered  Jessica Lunsford. This man was sentenced to death.  Raping and murdering a child should be an automatic death sentence.  Period.  I don’t care who you are, how bad your childhood was, what’s wrong with your brain chemistry.  When you rape and murder a child, you are done. 

Edit:  Died of cancer.

I think I'd rather stab myself in the eye...

What the CDC fails to mention is secondary infections from an original flu virus or patients with asthmatic history or other underlying health issues that were the cause of complications. Receiving an H1N1 shot would have been just as dangerous for many of these people as simply contracting it through daily contact.There is always a small percentage of complications and dropouts in the CDC studies (it varies by the class being studied). Usually, it's around 1% which doesn't sound like much, but they don't list the number of participants in the study or who conducted it. Funny, huh? There is a lot of money to be made in the field of pharmaceuticals and vaccines, both for the pharmaceutical companies as well as healthcare providers getting kick-backs for carrying certain products. I don't trust the CDC to be forthright with anything that makes them look incompetent.

I agree you should be informed before making a decision, not scared into it by selective information.

This site is decidedly conservative, but the articles' content is fact. The video is of CDC head being interviewed on CNN...

This article highlights the proven relationships to vaccine and asthma is children.

There are thousands of these articles and studies all over the world that fail to spark the interest of the CDC or WHO. I find THAT to be truly appalling.

 I think it's important to ask questions and weigh the pro's and cons with vaccinations.  However, your comments sound a bit skewed.  Being pregnant makes the immune status of pregnant women vulnerable to the virus.  More so then a normal person.  Pregnancy also compromises lung function(as most of us know from experience), which would make it difficult to ensure that momma and baby are getting enough oxygen. 

My boss has H1N1, and it took him out hard core.  Normally, the man is as sturdy as a rock.  If I were pregnant, personally, I would choose to receive the vaccine.  The risks of H1N1 outweigh the risks of the vaccine.  However, because I am not pregnant, I am still weighing my options.

Irena Sendler, the polish woman who saved 3000+ children in WW2, would be another example of the types of acts that would qualify for the Nobel peace prize. 

 

Actually, she doesn't qualify (at least now), because the prize is not given posthumously.  And if other requirements are to be believed, she wouldn't have qualified unless it was given in 1943 or 44.

 I know.  Too bad she died in 2007.  At least her efforts were made known world wide before she passed!  She is an example of how one person can make a large impact in the lives of people.  A true humanitarian. 

I don't understand why he won the Nobel peace prize.  He hasn't done anything.  Well, he seems like a nice guy and talks a lot.  I guess when I think of worthy individuals who deserve the Nobel peace prize, I think of that polish woman who saved 3000 Jewish children from being murdered in WW2, or that one guy in Africa who is giving out small loans to dirt poor families so they can dig themselves out of poverty.  What a joke.

If this is about your faith, then you started on the wrong path from the beginning, right?   You had the sex and babies before marriage.  No offense, but why are you worried about your faith now?  You are past that point and now need to think, do I really want to marry this man?  You don't sound so sure, and frankly, he sounds pretty lazy in a hazardous sort of way.  The question is, are you able to live with this man the way that he is?  It sounds like he has had the same behaviours for many years, and rarely do people change.

REVEREND! CAN I GET AN AMEN?

Not being judgmental.  Just trying to understand her point of view.  She brought up religion many times in her OP.  If it’s her faith she is worried about, well you cannot undo children!  Did this not concern her when she had he two children?  It is just confusing.  I feel for the OP, because I have similar beliefs.  And, I can see myself in that situation and wanting marriage.  However, at the point she is in now, I would really really think hard if marrying this man is what she WANTS or if it is because of her RELIGION.   

"AND WHERE THE HELLLLLL..did Cain and Abel's wives come from if Cain and Abel were the children of Adam and Eve and their wives werent?"

In Genesis 5:4 the bible says,

"And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters. "

So, it makes sense to think that Cain's wife could be one of his sisters.

There's a book called The Gift of Fear by Gavin De Becker and it's about trusting your instincts.   We tend to call ourselves silly or paranoid instead of trusting our intuition.  We also ignore our instincts to avoid seeming rude or unfriendly.  After reading this book, I developed a healthy relationship with my fear and started putting my own safety first. 

A year or so ago, I was leaving a supermarket and a group of five guys was following me, walking a little too closely for my comfort - practically on my back.  It was late at night and I was alone.  I didn't know what they were up to but it made me very uncomfortable.   I turned around and said, "Back off!" to let them know that, even though I was afraid, I was not an easy target.  A couple in the parking lot came over to check on me and the guys ran off. 

I agree, though, that some people are just creepy and probably aren't out to hurt someone.   I don't immediately start yelling at someone if he or she creeps me out but I'm not afraid to tell someone to leave me alone.

EDIT:  typo

 I'm going to read that book.  Thanks for mentioning it.  I've never felt like this about a person/individual before.  We were in a public place!  The only thing I could think of when talking to him was "get away from this guy.  NOW."
