My mother told me a story about bunnies yesterday. While my parents were dating, she got my father a pair of rabbits because he wanted one. He had them for a year. After a year, he could now longer take them. My parents decided to donate the rabbit to the Opryland petting zoo.

Maybe this is why I have a rabbit fetish? Both my parents are bad about getting my rabbit stuff. But my father goes out of his way to get me rabbit stuff when he's getting us all something from the various cities he works in.

When he was in Korea in 1988, he bought us some stuffed animals. One was a rabbit. Nicki wanted it but I grabbed it first. He bought the rabbit with me in mind.

When I had my surgery, my parents spent time at the gift shop while I was in recovery. My mother found 2 Ty rabbits, Twitcher and Carrots, that they decided to get me. My father took Carrots and place it such that the head was sticking out of his coat pocket. I was pumped up on drugs and didn't have my glasses on but I saw the rabbit in my father's pocket. I found out later that was his plan.

I know my parents love me and I love them. Even when I hate them and think they are scum of the earth. Thank God for the Paxil!

I need to get my room in order. Yes, it will have a rabbit theme, as always. But rabbits are something that make me feel secure.

It's official! I am a nerd. I made my first post at Slashdot.org. The topic was about Internet radio. I mess Retro Rewind because it is so much better than Backtrax USA. Backtrax airs in Savannah and Retro Rewind doesn't. And now we STILL can't get it on the Internet. I like to listen to Q 100 in Atlanta occasionally. It was just a topic that did seem interesting to me. Couldn't resist a post.

My mother and I were watching The Guardian last night. I cried over the dog plotline. I asked my mother where the show took place. She didn't know. During the opening, I saw a yellow bridge and instantly thought Pittsburgh. It took them a while to say "Pittsburgh." But it felt great knowing I've never been to Pittsburgh and was able to guess it from TV. I love the power of the Internet.

Now onto Wednesday Whine questions.

1. What is your definition of beauty? What has influenced this definition? Beauty isn't in our looks. Sure, there are some hot guys but some of them are dumb. Beauty is a smart brain and good looks. But brains make a difference. Anyone can be pretty but brains are what make people beautiful. Encounters with idiots influenced this.

2. What is your definition of truth? What has influenced this definition? This one's hard! No fair! :p

3. What is your definition of love? What has influenced this definition? Life is answer to what has influenced me. Love is someone loving me for who I am, not what I look like.

4. What is your definition of justice? What has influenced this definition? Justice is making sure those that did wrong get the punishment they deserve. S has a link to an article that Russell Yates may be charged for events leading to the children's death. I'm glad to read. He's just as responsible for his children's death as his wife.

5. Whine. I'll listen! No whines today.
