I just realized it was easier to decide to get married than it is to get a tattoo or piercing.

I Am Still 100% Against Routine Infant Circumcision. Things Happen.

I have always been against RIC. I have three daughters, who are 18 to 23. I have one son, who is 15. I did not have him circumcised. In the past year, he has seen two doctors because he finally told me he was unable to retract his foreskin. It turns out he had a little discomfort, due to tearing, which caused an infection. He was about six years old at the time, and when the symptoms went away after a few days, he was convinced he did not need to inform me of this.

So here we are, after having seen two doctors, and he is being circumcised next week. I have heard it all; I am getting flak about it. It was not my decision. It was his own, after becoming well informed over the past several months. He asked very good questions of both of his doctors. His scarring is to the point that he is barely able to urinate, and since massage has not worked in the least, and the degree of scarring, the doctor says that a year of steroids will not be good; prolonging it can create more serious issues, such as it completely closing up if that does not start working immediately.

I am STILL against RIC. I am still 100% pro breastfeeding (I breastfed all of my babies), I am a non-spanking parent, who does not believe in using the word "punish" anymore than I believe in using punishments. I co-slept, I did not let my babies CIO (cry it out), and I have always been open and honest with my kids.

So you can judge me, and even my son, since I had absolutely nothing to do with this decision, but ultimately, it was left to him and his doctor to decide, and I am tearful while writing this because I think it is sad that it has to be done.

The ever-present question of 'do I close the bedroom door and freeze to death' or 'do I leave it open and possibly allow the dark lord Satan into my room to have a fricking slumber party'

Even though it's summer, lately I've been thinking a lot about what I'm going to do after I graduate from high school (which is next year, eeeeeeeek!)

Anyways, for a while now I've been saying that I want to go into Journalism, which is kind of still true but I've been having some doubts about that. I mean, I suck at talking to people, and I hate asking questions.

SO, I've been looking into other options that still deal with media, and something that seems really interesting is layout design. I just think it would be really fun to do that. It's definitely something I'll look into.

Finally, this is kind of a secret dream of mine that I haven't told anyone because I think they would think I'm crazy (so instead I've decided to tell it to random strangers on the internet...GENIUS!) Anyways, I really really really want to work for a surf magazine. I just love everything about surfing, and it's something that interests me a lot. Also, I love the layouts of surf magazines because they always look really creative. The only problem is that I live in Ontario, Canada which is definitely NOT a place where people surf. Sooo I'd have to figure out some way to get to California, or another location where surfing is popular and where they create surf magazines.

We'll see. I still have a year to decide.
