Question of the Week #99 from the Oracular Tree
Socially, a long silence is like the kiss of death…people become embarrassed, anxious, uneasy. What is it about quiet that invokes this response? How have you gone about befriending these moments and what have you discovered lying beneath their glassy surface?

Senator Clinton Is Confusing
Senator Clinton was in Iowa over the weekend and had this to say “We are a good and great nation and we will be once again.” Um, if we “are a good and great nation” how can we “be [one] once again?” Given how our President is - with good reason - often excoriated for his lack of oratory skill, how come people aren’t making fun of Leftists like Senator Clinton for her own inability to speak coherently? Oh, wait, sorry..So help me, I’ll sit and eat a box of these things at one sitting if I don’t exercise self-control and sensibility. The manufacturer has it down patt as to marketing of these things. They only put 8 in a box, whereas most of the other Little Debbie products are 12.
If you ever have the chance to try So I called the fertility specialist that she had recommended to me and luckily they had an opening for May 23 so I’m going to see him then. I’m anxious to see him but on the other hand I’m a little scared because I’ve heard a lot of scary stories about the side effects of hormones and that some of the tests that you taka are pretty painful. But I just have to do it; I cannot keep torturing myself not knowing what’s going on. My husband was a little hesitant when I told him that I had made an appointment with a fertility specialist and that most likely he’ll have to have his sperm tested. He sees that as some kind of failure, like we are not able to do it the normal way and he is also scared that he may be the reason why we are not pregnant, which is sort of a failure for him but I keep telling him that we just need to find out what it is and hopefully everything will be OK.these things, you’ll be hooked.
