I've been seeing someone else...

Yes, I'm afraid I have been fooling around with Facebook. I think it's good, but a potential time waster and I get the feeling that there is an endless supply of these type of things. You could find yourself trying to upkeep a million different websites. For now, I think I'll just stick to the blog and Facebook. Feel free to join up for a better look at our photos.

So my big goal at the moment is to manage the way I react to certain infuriating situations like being stared at and being run over in the street. This morning at the bus stop while waiting for our school bus, there was a group of about 8 dudes directly across the road who were standing there watching us with their mouths agape. They looked like they were watching something really amazing on TV. We waited for about 5-10 minutes for the bus and they didn't take their eyes off us for a second. I don't handle these things well, but I have started just turning my back or face away so I can try to ignore it.

The other thing that happened on Sunday was nearly being run over by a huge Range Rover while I was crossing the street on a green man (who carries very little sway over here). The driver's window was about 2 feet from my face and my reaction, while tamer than usual, was still a little impulsive. The only weapon I had on me was my water bottle, so I splashed the water at his window (which was shut). Ooooh water...good one Trace. I blame hormones. I'm sure the driver has learnt his lesson and will never run down 8 month pregnant women in the street again.

So the question(s) for today are: Is it reasonable to throw water at people who try to run you over? How would you react? How can I deal with this damn staring? I need some innovative ideas as I'm all out.
