Whats the big fucking deal

So gay marriage. Should it be legal? Why? Why not?
Why- so partners in loving relationships can receive the same legal rights as 'traditional' married couples.
Why not- the christians believe it goes against their biblical beliefs.
This is all hilarious to me because it further displays our ignorance.
The constitution has NO basis in religion and is not legally bound to it in any way.
A civil marriage (one made legal by the witness of a government official) also has no obligation to any religion.
Where is the issue? Let people in love have the same rights as others in love.

In addition to this weirdness I've been hearing people bitch about their 'rights' as defined in the amendments and how they should be left unchanged when the very nature of the word amendment is CHANGE!
Sometimes i look at these situations,  i watch people argue and in my head they've all got mouths full of marbles, their arms and legs are wrapped in bubble wrap that extends past their finger tips and googley-eyed glasses on. You know?  The ones that are like slinkies attached frames with big faux eyes on the ends.

My heavy heart

She understands that her feelings are her own and they cannot be changed without her agreeing to it.
She understands that we are all unfolding into our own perfection on the various paths in life that we are on.
She understands how to care for the hateful. She knows that they most of all require love.
She understands that truth is not without its lofty burdens and treads carefully in accordance with trust.
She does not understand the willfully haughty, irresponsible and ignorant. The selfish and disrespectful with purpose are a mystery to her and yet....she cares.
My heavy heart is not stone. She is not cold but she has damage. Her strength is in her understanding and its in that understanding that she survives. Her ache is the call to action.

Day one

Came home, fed julia, put her down for a nap and cleaned anything within eyeshot until she woke up, played some, fed her dinner, put her down for sleep. Cleaned more, stopped, realized how crazy-lonely i am without Jer. Im tearing up at everything in the house. Pillows now have his t-shirts on them.

Derby itch ....(itches are annoying)

Home bout at Boyd county community center? After party in Ashland? Are we a West Virginia team or Kentucky team? I could understand if we booked a venue elsewhere in WV but in another state? Thats my first itch.
My second is the lack of focus. Its as if no one cares that we are travelling 4hrs away to play a team we've never met. We need to leave an impression that we aren't just a womens club on skates, there to conversate and compliment each others jerseys. Even double said to take it seriously. Treat it like a legit bout she said. Its not about the win, its about experience. I don't want to be a part of a team thats viewed as careless and aloof.
One practice left before the game and no one is talking about strategy, focus or strengthening weak spots. Grrrr..and i don't feel like its my place to say anything.
