When Harry and Ron begin making up predictions in their Divination homework in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, they happen to predict, exactly, the dangers that await Harry in the Triwizard Tournament: first that he will be “in danger of burns” (the first trial of overcoming a dragon); next that he will “lose a treasured possession” (Ron, his best friend, whom he will have to recover from the Merpeople) and Ron says that he’ll drown (he’s submerged in the Black Lake); then get “stabbed in the back by someone you thought was a friend” (his D.A.D.A. professor); and finally “come off worse in a fight” (clearly, his duel with Lord Voldemort in the Little Hangleton Graveyard).

Ex Boyfriends
This should also be titled “Guys Don’t Realize the Douchebags They Are” with an under headline (not sure that’s a real term but it so is now) “But I sure Do.”
I got an email today from one of my more attractive exes. Apparently his bro-in-law’s brother applied to my job. He asked if I was still working there and if I’d do him the favor of putting in a good word.
That good word is “No!”
Let’s do a little back story here.
So this ex of mine was really cool. Started out as a regular customer who was flirtatious but between you and me, a lot of guys are flirtatious and I flirt back because it is rude to stare a customer in the face and laugh at their advances. Yet this time I did not want to laugh because he was a super gorgeous god like of a man. I am 21 at the time and he is 27 and so on.
We start dating. He tells me he can’t stop thinking of me and I believe the term Goddess was thrown about quite a bit.
Fast forward.
Poof!
Breaking up with me because he has a current girlfriend in Germany…
wait what?!
Yes a gf in Germany. He pays for her to live here and I think they may be wed now. Which I mean good for them.
I am devastated and none to pleased and as a younger girl I thought I legitimately loved him. Wrong. I loved the idea of his very perfect body-ness.
He continues to bring her into my store. I am more attractive by far. Or at least the lovely gentlemen at work told me so and I choose to believe it.
Now he wants me to help him out and get this kid a job?
The gall of some people.
So here’s the moral of this story…
Do not presume that because it’s been a while I forgive you for the douchebaggery that you have committed against my person.
So Caylee Anthony was found not guilty in the murder of her almost three year old daughter and people are pissed. And of course they are. People have taken this dead little girl into their hearts as if she were their own child.
How could you not?
I felt that the prosecution did what they could with the evidence they had. It just wasn’t enough.
And how do I feel on the issue?
I don’t know. I don’t like that a little girl is dead. I don’t like that she’s never going to get to wake up on Christmas again and open presents from Santa. I don’t like that she’ll never get to hate high school and love a boy (or a girl) for the first time. That’s a tragedy that shouldn’t be forgotten.
So did Caylee do it?
I don’t know that either. I wasn’t there. But the evidence points to her killing a defenseless three year old girl. And now she’s free to open presents and fall in love and (hopefully not) have another child…
And what’s she going to do when she get’s sick of that one too?
Will they find him/her in the woods? A dumpster this time? Will they he scared of mommy if they do survive past the age of three? Knowing that maybe, just maybe, mommy killed big sister?
I know I’m not ready for children. That is why I use proper precautions to not have them. And If I did have one…then I would do right by them because I know what it’s like to not be loved by a parent.
So should Caylee Anthony be free? I don’t know. The jury says so. The justice system says so.
But someone killed that little girl. She didn’t just go off and die.
And someone needs to be held responsible.
