Random Thought/Confessions: Pee

Sometimes I feel like I have to pee -- I head to the little girls room and take a seat only to realize that I really didn't need to go that bad. In fact, to the flush the toilet after peeing so little would be an immense waste of resources. So... I don't! :)

Battlestar Galactica

I know what you are thinking, me .... sci-fy nerd .... really?! Well, I am as shocked as you are, trust me!

It all started because my husband, a known sci-fy junkie was watching the series. At first I mocked him, who wouldn't?! lol. But then I started to catch a few scenes here and there as I went about my day. I found myself reluctant to leave the room on several occasions. And then it happened. I saw a whole episode and I was hooked.

Starbuck (coolest girl in fake history!) is shot down by a Cylon Raider and abandons ship on a hostile planet. She seeks shelter in the downed raider and discovers that it is a living organism. She figures out how to fly it and makes her way back to Galactica. Adama and Apollo (captain of the fleet and his way good looking son) have launched a dangerous rescue mission and are trying to find Starbuck. Then the crazy President Roslin (so not a fan of her) finds out that they are putting the fleet at risk, she puts the kibash on the whole plan. Just as the fleet is about to leave, a lone cylon raider appears. Lee (aka Apollo) tries to shoot it down but it outmaneuvers him until he is able to see its underbelly -- Starbuck has written her name on it.  AMAZING!!  And that is leaving out the whole Helo and Boomer (a Cylon!) adventure on Caprica!  Wow.

My name is Sarah Ray, and I am addicted to Battlestar Galactica.

Attention

Usually, I love attention. I do. In the past I have acted out for it, lied to get it and sometimes flat out asked for it. But the attention given to me after this tragedy is not something I am a fan of.

It's nice to know people care... and I love each one of them for it. I really do. But if we could all get it over with already, enough sad looks aimed in my direction when someone says a word that may remind me I lost my little girl, enough lingering hugs, enough "drop bys" to check on me. Enough. I am trying to move on, and it's really hard to do so when I keep being dragged back into my pain. :(

Little Lily

Dear Lily,

I love you, and I can not wait to hold you in my arms. I know one day it will happen and until then I will forever be greatful for the short time we shared together.

Love,

Your Mom
