So, one of my classes this semester is on Facebook...not how to navigate it but we literally meet and talk on a facebook page. It is a little weird. Anyway, several of us have been unhappy about how the class is being run. There is no real structure and we don't really know what is going on. About three of us were posting back and forth about how much we disliked it. This person posted a comment that was directed to me by name. He said that I should stop being a baby and whining so much. I was shocked! First of all, I was answering a comment by another girl on there and I wasn't being whiny or mean. Secondly, I don't know why he attacked me and not the others. Anywho--a word battle ensued. I was pretty irate but I tried to remain calm and address his complaints calmly. He said some pretty rude things about me. I can't believe that someone would be so rude to someone that they don't know over nothing. I was shocked to say the least. I don't even know him or why he was so mad at me...other people were saying worse things than I was. Anyway, I found out today that he is barely out of high school. I hope that he grows up...I mean honestly, does he really think that it is okay to say mean things to people he doesn't know just because it is on a relatively anonymous site like facebook?
Ok...next thought. I really want to adopt. M and I have thought about it for a long time and I think that we are really ready to start looking into it. It probably won't happen for a few years and that is okay but I want to get started. We really need a baby girl! ; ) Even M thinks so and Cuj has been telling me for months that he wants a sister. Does that mean that we won't try for one of our own? No...probably not. But...we will see. I have been having dreams about this super precious baby that looks Hispanic but has beautiful, black, curly hair that looks more African American than Hispanic. I saw a posting for a biracial girl that was African American/Hispanic and I almost fainted!! Of course, she was already placed by the time I called the agency but it really got us to thinking that this may be the time to start.

Maybe that kid in your class has something else going wrong in his life. Maybe his girlfriend broke up with him so he's mad at the world. But he'll learn quick that he can't be that way and get anywhere in the world.
And good luck with adopting. That is so great!
Yeah- I was just shocked that someone would say mean things about someone that they didn't even know and...everyone was saying the same things.
It will probably take a few years to really get the adoption thing going. WE will see.
