is it just me or does anyone else think that pope john paul and mother teresa would have made a nice couple? well i guess we'll never know, now will we?

i went to see harry potter tonight with linds, lisa, joel and cameron. i have to admit, i'm quite the harry potter junkie. well not in excess or anything but i do genuinely like the movies. each one. they're all equally interesting and engaging. i only JUST got on the harry potter bandwagon. like this summer. i was dissuaded before by all the people claiming harry potter was evil. not like i agreed, it was more i was turned off any interest in seeing them because of all the controversey.

something has been eating at me that i feel i need to clear up. rumour has it i'm a man-hater. well actually, its not really a rumour. i just thought it sounded more intriguing to phrase it that way. someone (who will remain anonymous) said it comes across in my blog that i have issues with men. and i was all like "well ya, of course. i'm a man-hater". hmm, so i guess if there was a man-hating rumour about me going around i started it. darn. well anywayz, i was pondering this at work today, and i've concluded that's not true. i liked saying i am, but really i'm not. so i guess i shouldn't say that then should i? regardless, i'd like to plead my own case on this one... being raised by a single-parent mom tends to colour your glasses anything but rose-coloured. does that make sense? think "jerry maguire" - that divorce support group. then you're starting to get the picture. there are incidents that fuel an indignant flame, but i know not all men are scum. there are good men. oh, and when i said "maybe boys aren't so bad after all" i was meaning "sons". i always thought, if i have kids some day, i never wanted sons. i guess its a fear of the unknown. but i've accepted that you get what you get, so i'm glad that joy had a boy because now i can get used to having one around (other than poor tim). she felt the same way i think. when caleb was born i remember her saying "i'm not used to boys, i grew up in an all girls house". i used to call it the estrogen zoo.

I was having some problems with my knitting yesterday. the problem being i kept breaking my needles. it was sooo weird! i didn't even realize that could happen!! hahahahaha.
