Amy you jailbird

hehe

that sounds fun and funny.  has anyone ever actually been arrested?  it amazes me that i never was in all my time of wild touring and partying with rock bands all over this land.  I was handcuffed once by a sheriff who was serving me with a subpoena.  I am pretty certain that wasn't actually legal for him to do but he did it anyways.  it hurt a whole lot really.  and i did have my car searched at gunpoint by the LAPD once which was crazy... my friend and i were just sitting in his VW bus having sandwiches and the cops knocked on the window.  They made us get out of the car with our hands on our heads and lie down on the sidewalk facedown  at gunpoint while they searched the bus.  they said that since we were parked in a drug free school zone that we were not allowed to 'loiter' in our vehicle (aka eat lunch) and that this gave them due cause to search our vehicle for drugs.  Mostly it was the fact that we both had dreadlocks and were in a VW bus that gave them 'due cause' IMHO.  Crazy nuts.  Since they didn't find anything we were not arrested.  But I was freaked out enought that I went right home and cut all my dreads off...  after a year and a half of growing them.  felt like it was time for the freak flag to wave on the inside, and be a little less public about my musical taste and it's accompanying lifestyle.  when you have dreadlocks everyone thinks you are a drug dealer, it seems.

sorry to be so quiet.  i have been super tired.  I had my iron level checked and I am a little anemic, so that might be why.  now I am taking this stuff Floradix Iron and Herbs, which is supposed to help.  I am at 29 1/2 weeks and am feeling really OVER this whole pregnancy thing.  I am looking forward to having this baby, don't get me wrong, but I am thrilled that I will never have to be pregnant again.  if I could have the baby tomorrow, I would, but I wouldn't want the little one to be on a ventilator ;p

what's new you all?  Thanks for the sweet compliment Maigan, but you are pretty foxy yourself.  I did feel good the day those pictures were taken though, and I am glad that it is commemorated for all time in a photo because most days I do not feel that way.
