It's a ... BOY!

So E and I found out that I am carrying a boy.

I was extremely excited not because of the sex - but because I 'felt' the sex when I was about 3 months and I was right! AND because I am going to name him Ezekiel - and EZ (easy) for short. My family absolutely abhors that name. My mom does, anyway. Probably because her brother had a dog named Zeek and she has an irrational hate/fear of all dogs. She describes it as what one would normally feel if they were to see a giant rat. She's not afraid the beast will bite her. She's afraid it will TOUCH her.

Still, I think it will be hot to call my son EZ (emphasis on the E). How hard is that?

Obama....The President...

Yes, I voted for him (with my conservative self). However, I am not naive to think that all of our economic problems will be instantaneously solved because a republican is out of office. It is extremely annoying to me when people blame our entire economic crisis on 'republican policies'.

Don't you know there are about a bazillion factors that contribute to the current state of our economy? And surprise, surprise, not all of them were caused by Bush. Furthermore, the Bush policies that were the most detrimental to our economy were the liberal ones! Bush's spending topped even Clinton's! The problem is not with Republicans - it's with fake Republicans.

So, the next time you want to blame republican policy for the economic crisis, go do some research, thanks.
