good day

Today was a good day. I was finally able to register, yay! In my second class, we had a debate about abortion. I personally could never, ever get an abortion, but I think that women should have the right to choose. I think we should work on preventive measures, so that abortions would not be necessary. For example, better sex education, more access to contraceptives, etc.

One student in the class was asked the question, "If your wife got pregnant, as planned, and you found out that she would not be able to have the baby and live, would you have her get an abortion?" He said that he would rather have his wife die in childbirth than abort the child. So I asked him, "What if your wife told you she wanted the abortion, that she wanted to live?" He didn't have an answer.

When I got home I could tell Brookie was feeling much better. She was smiley and in a great mood. So of course, I have to get hit with a migraine. It basically knocked me out for two hours. I'm going to the doctors next week because I've been getting them quite frequently lately and they have also been more severe.

I made Brookie some t-shirts. On one, the front says, "Democrat in Training," and on the back it says, "My I.Q is Higher Than the President's." The other t-shirt says, "Breastfed baby--stick around for the show." and the third one says, "Got Breastmilk?" My cousin thought they were really cute and asked me to make one for her friend, who is pregnant.

Today we also found out that Jason's best friend got engaged.  He asked his long time girlfriend to marry him, finally. I'm so happy for him!

Well, I have to go work on my papers. Bye!
