Ugh.

So I just got done watching a compelling Law and Order: SVU (one of my favorite shows!). It was about teenage drinking and at the end of the show it gave some shocking statistics:

TEENAGE DRINKING & DRIVING
2,449 youths under 21 were killed in alcohol-related traffic fatalities in 2005. That's an average of 7 deaths every day.

Eeep.

Having a baby changed my perspective on a lot of things, drinking being one of them. I now see M.A.D.D. in a whole new light and part of me wants to run for the president of that club (who knows if they even have a president? Eh, beside the point). I hope and pray Hailey never becomes a statistic like the one above and will do everything in my power to prevent it. I hope that in the future, alcohol never destroys the life of anyone I know.

Gross, unlikeable, unpleasant, dumb, and lousy...


  1. What’s a gross food you like anyway? Hmm, some don't like broccoli, but I like it steamed...yum!
  2. Who’s an unlikeable person you like anyway? Hmm. No one.
  3. What’s an unpleasant task you enjoy performing anyway? Every once in a while (once a week) I get on a cleaning kick, some more severe than others.
  4. What’s a dumb song you enjoy anyway? Pop by N'Sync
  5. What’s a lousy restaurant you frequent anyway? I only go to restaurants that I like. Unless I am striking a deal or compromising with Jordan.

Soo, talk about lack of commitment, I haven't done a Friday 5 for a long time, and I'm late. Yay. And for some reason, this won't let me type in a title. Maybe it's mad that I'm a day late and as far as I'm concerned, a dollar short :) Either way, "A" for effort, right? :)

  1. Given as a percentage, approximately what are the chances that there is a french fry somewhere in your car? If you do not own a car, what are the chances that there is a french fry somewhere in the car you most frequently ride in? Hmmm, I actually think, 85%. I'd like to think I'm pretty careful when eating in my car. Now the shredded lettuce, that's another story, that would be more like 100%.
  2. Given as a percentage, approximately what are the chances that you will eat ice cream sometime in the next four days? Ice cream? By Wednesday, 25%.
  3. Given as a percentage, approximately what are the chances that you’ll get a personal, handwritten greeting in the mail sometime in the next week? 0%
  4. Given as a percentage, approximately what are the chances that there will be rain in your neighborhood within the next forty-eight hours? 0%, it is supposed to be hot and sunny, ugh. I'm looking forward to fall.
  5. Given as a percentage, approximately what are the chances that in the next twenty-four hours, you will be in the same room as a naked person other than yourself? Probably 0%.
