If your best friend asked you OR your partner to help you conceive a child, would you consider it? How do you think it would affect your friendship and your relationship?

I might consider it, but, I would have to have a really frank conversation with my partner before committing. This is a real decision. I would be a father. This, to me, forces a since of responsability on me that I am not sure I am ready for.

I am in serious pain right now.
Tomorrow, I have to go to the free clinic, since I have no health coverage as an unemployed american.
Please Pray for me.

"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me. I lift my lamp beside the golden door."

Why have these words been forgotten?
Why is it that my grandparents were welcomed to this country, yet now others are refused entry?

I know both sides of the debate, I just can't reconcile the words engraved on the Statue of Liberty with current immigration policies.

Just wanted to tell everyone, that I live in the greatest city on earth.
I was downtown today, and after having a few drinks, decided to wander around.
I was about to buy a peice of leather from a store, when I realized my wallet was missing!
I told the store and gave them my number, then went to every other place I had been too, and gave them my number as well.
When I got home I had 2 voicemails on my cell, saying that a customer had picked up my wallet, and giving me a number to call so I could claim it.
Damn, depending on where you live, and especially on where I have lived, If you lose your wallet, you're SOL. This is the only place I've ever been, where people take the time to tell someone that the wallet they picked up wasn't theirs.
From now on, anyone on this LJ list that wants to stay in any Choice property, "ie any sleep-comfort-quality-or marion" inn. Give me a shout beforehand, and I can get you in there for the employee rate.

God Bless, and Amen.

I just found out that I lost a personal hero yesteday.
Steve Irwin was a passionate conservationist, whom was dedicated to preserving wildlife and educating others.
I never had a chance to meet him in person, and I will always regret that, but I do still plan to visit Australia Zoo in the next year as part of my trip across Australia.
He will be missed.

This is a quick two parter set in my hometown.
Just for the record this is post chosen, and as always B/X.
Also, so you know, as if you didn't already, BTVS is owned by Mutant Enemy productions and not by me.
This story was inspiered by some of nwhepcat's and nemo-gravis's stories, and I strongly reccomend chchecking them out.

Xander squatted a little in front of the young slayer. "Autumn," he said "I'm being straight with you now. This job isn't fun, it isn't easy," he brushes his hand through his hair, indicating his eyepatch with a grimace, "and it certainly isn't safe. But you'll be on a team, with other friends, other slayers, and you'll have me their as well. We can't promise you safety, but we can promise that you will never be alone."
Xander shifted restlessly, his knees aching from being in this position.
"This is a hard life, with few rewards beyond a kinship with others like you. There are no prizes, no medals are given out for saving the world, often times not even a thank you for saving someones life. We work in the shadows, so others can live in the light."
He stands up, "Now, you've slayed a Vampire, you've heard the speech, you know what we're fighting, and most importantly why we fight, Why don't you and your Uncle discuss this overnight. Buffy and I will be in town at the Rennaissance of Asheville for the next three nights, and you can contact me anytime at the number I gave you."
Autumn looked up at him. "Will I be able to come home once in a while?"
"Yes! We aren't taking you away permanently." Xander smiled, "Everyone gets at least four weeks paid vacation every year, staggered, so everyone doesn't decide to take June off. You can go home, or anywhere you'd like. I know of a couple of slayers on vacation in Florida right now. There are phones in every dorm room, and you can call home anytime you feel like it."
"Thanks, I... I guess I should talk to my Uncle Joe before I decide anything." She shook his hand before running off to her uncles waiting car.
Buffy came up to him and they started walking the short disance back to their hotel. "Well, what do you think," Buffy said, "think she'll join up?"
"I don't know, she handled that vamp well, but her Uncle seemed pretty shaken up."
"Yeah, having your whole world view flipped upside down will do that for you." Buffy smirked.
"No, not that, or not just that, he didn't seem that suprised that there really were such things as vampires, I think it just sunk in that his niece was going to be out there fighting those creatures on a nightly basis whether she went with us or not."
"Yeah, who would have thought a small town in North Carolina would have as many creepy-crawlies as this one does?" Buffy said with a smile.
"You up for a patrol, Xander?"
"Yeah, but just a quick one on the way to the hotel, I still want to check out that hot tub in our room. I'm pretty beat."
"You better not be too beat, Autumn and I did all the work tonight mister!" she grinned.
"Yeah, and trying to keep tabs on you both, and reassure Joe, that his niece was in competant hands was exausting enough, thank you." he joked.
"Ooh, I just remembered, there's all the fixings for a margarita in the minibar, how bout you go start up the hot tub, and I'll bring the drinks?" Buffy smiled seductivly, "I won't wear a suit if you won't."
Xander grinned, "All in favor of abandoning patrol for the hot tub and minibar say aye!"
Buffy grabbed the back of his neck and gave him a searingly hot kiss, "Aye" she whispered into his ear, causing his knees to tremble ever so slightly.
Hand in hand they raced back to the hotel.
