Fate

I have always been a big believer in fate. My current life was predestined. There were experiences I required and lessons I had to learn. However, now I suspect I am changing my fate. The fate line on my hand is starting to fade at the top--almost as if to signify that much of my life was predetermined by fate but now I get to control my own future. YES!!!! I'm ready.

Saw this on Craigslist and wanted to share it

TEN SURE SIGNS YOU’RE BEING USED
1) He never introduces you to his family.
2) He rarely includes you in activities with his friends.
3) He only calls or comes by when he wants sex, and leaves right afterwards.
4) When you see him, it’s always during the week, or when it’s convenient for him, never on Saturday night.
5) When he does get together with you, its obvious he hasn’t given much thought to his appearance.
6) He won’t take your calls at work.
7) He doesn’t acknowledge holidays or occasions .
8) When you want to discuss his behavior, he says, "It’s all in your head."
9) When you’re sick, he doesn’t offer anything, or give you a shoulder to lean on.
10) You never spend the night at his place.

Wasn't meant to be

In every way, it wasn't. I was excited and wanted this child, but...he wasn't right. The "sperm donor" created so much stress in my life that my body couldn't be a good host. While this saddens me, it allows me to move on to something new. Everything happens for a reason.

Does this mean it's good to hook-up at the bar?

I've never really been that type of girl. Maybe I'm missing out.....


Brewer's droop an old wives' tale


IT gives the phrase "a stiff drink" a whole new meaning: Australian researchers have made the surprise discovery that alcohol improves, rather than damages, men's performance in the bedroom.

They hope the finding, which flies in the face of conventional belief, will reassure men who worry about the affects of drinking on their sex lives.

Until now, it has been widely believed alcohol consumption could cause erectile dysfunction, commonly called "brewer's droop''.

But a study of 1580 Australian men has shown the reverse may be true, with drinkers reporting as many as 30 per cent fewer problems than teetotallers.

Even binge drinkers had lower rates of erectile dysfunction than those who never drank, although this type of drinking can cause other health problems.

Lead study author Dr Kew-Kim Chew, of Western Australia's Keogh Institute for Medical Research, told The Sunday Telegraph men who drank within safe guidelines appeared to have the best erectile function.

"We found that, compared to those who have never touched alcohol, many people do benefit from some alcohol, including some people who drink outside the guidelines,'' Dr Chew said.

Dr Chew said he had patients with erectile dysfunction who had been told to stop drinking completely.

The latest finding should prevent them compounding the problem by feeling ``guilty and stressed'' about present or past drinking, he said.

After other risk factors were excluded, weekend drinkers, high-risk drinkers and those who exceeded alcohol-intake guidelines had lower rates of erectile dysfunction than those who drank one day a week or less. Ex-drinkers, however, had the highest risk.

"Although alcohol may increase sexual desire through disinhibition, the slang term ``brewer's droop'' captures its reputation as a risk factor for decreased sexual performance,'' the study says.

"These findings suggest a favourable association between low-risk alcohol drinking and (positive) erectile function.''

Low-risk drinking for men is defined as up to four drinks a day for up to five days a week, according to National Health and Medical Research Council guidelines.

The study, which will be published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, concludes there is ``no justification'' to advise men with erectile dysfunction who drink moderately to stop or reduce their drinking.

Earlier parts of the study, however, confirm that men who smoke or have heart disease are at higher risk of erectile dysfunction.

Dr Chew will present hisfindings at an international conference in April.

Uh-oh

My period is two days late and I'm single. This morning I took a few pregnancy tests which showed 2 lines--the pregnancy line was very faint but still there. In the past I've miscarried a handful of times. Since many miscarriages happen early on, I'm not worried yet. It would've been nice to have a husband and stable home but things don't always work out as planned. However, I do want a child so if I remain pregnant I will move somewhere more affordable and be a single parent.

New moles

Found a new mole on my underarm. There is also another new one on my back about 4 inches away. Need to get them checked out as soon as I can afford. For the past year I have been under a lot of stress and have a bad feeling.. Hopefully it is nothing since I don't have insurance.
