Use Your Voice!

Tomorrow during Senate the One-Fund for Karl Rove will be up for review. This is a chance to stop the One-Fund. I encourage all of you, whether you support it or not, to contact your senators and let them know how you feel. I have discovered that lots of students on campus are not being contacted by their senators and as frustrating as that is, we can do something about it. We can contact them ourselves. So below is the current list of senators and the areas they represent. If you are in an area with more than one senator and are unsure of who represents your floor, I would contact all of them via email and let them know how you'd like them to vote. They are YOUR REPRESENTATIVES and in order for them to represent you, they need to know how you would vote. Should they be the ones contacting you first? Hell yes, but if they don't you need to take the initiative. Contact your senators!

Determined as ever.

Chew Toy

This post goes out to all those moms out there who are or have ever experienced a teething monster. A-hem.    Excuse, did I say monster? I meant baby. I am now experiencing the world of a teething six month old baby and in this world, he is the ruler. I am merely his servant who rocks and coos and cradles and nurses and soothes the tantrum-ing baby that has become my son.

I at a loss for what to do. I can't seem to make it better, and it leaves me feeling helpless. He cries like he's uncomfortable, and damn it! I would be too if I had little calcium spikes poking through my tender gums. But after trying various teething toy options, ibuprofen, Orajel, and lots of extra love and attention, it's still no go.

Believe me, I understand this is a necessary process and that it's one we just have to get through, but after a day filled with a screaming baby and stressed out fiancee, a girl needs to vent.

But here's to better days and toothy grins in our future!
