MySpace, internet police, amigurumi lops, and weekend plans
Watching the news, and apparently local parents are up in arms about social networking sites like MySpace and how every pedophile on the web is logging on to look at their kids. Every time they do a report like that I need to restrain myself from throwing whatever is in my hands at the TV screen because I just can’t stand the constant expectation of parents that the internet should be a happy place full of sunshine and rainbows and the act of sheltering these kids from the real world. News flash, people, the real world isn’t all sunshine and rainbows, so why would you fucking expect the internet, made up of the real world with every aspect, both the good and the bad, exagerated exponentially, to be any different? They finish the report with the warning, “keep your computers in a public area of the house and pay attention to what your children are doing online.”
Well no shit. Think of it this way: if you don’t believe that your child is old enough or mature enough to handle being at the mall with friends on a Friday night, then don’t let them on the net unsupervised. Just because it’s in your house, doesn’t mean it’s safe. Hell, ','caption', 'My fantastic husband' );">Eddie posed as a 15 year old girl on MySpace and got about 10 cock pics a day sent to him. Granted he was also posting provicative pictures of her, but unsolicited homemade porn sent to someone who says right in her profile “I’m 15″ is pushing it, and would probably happened regardless of what kind of images were posted.
I spent the night watching The Book of Daniel and working on this little lop-eared bunny. I call her Coco, and my God is she the cutest, snuggliest little thing I’ve ever made. I need to work on getting her eyes to stay secure, but I just can’t stop thinking about how frickin adorable she turned out. I’ll have to check what I’ve got in terms of yarn and see if I’ve got enough to make her a friend. Out of all the amigurumi animals I’ve made, I think she turned out the best, and she’s the only one that I’ve kept for myself so far, all the others have gone to other people, with ','caption', 'My fantastic husband' );">Eddie having the biggest collection so far.
We’re going to Mom’s tomorrow to watch the Patriots in the playoffs. We’re also having dinner over there, and I’ll probably round up all the yarn i’ve got around the house to make another bunny or two while we’re there to try to sell online. Sunday we’ll probably spend here at the house, lounging around in bed and having sinfully dirty sex all day, getting all tangled up in the sheets and being nasty to each other.
However, no matter how much ','caption', 'My fantastic husband' );">Eddie begs, I’m not going to pee on his face and call him a whore.
