About Me

Long story short. Got 6 kids, 1 son, 5 daughters. Married 24 years to an Iraqi National. I'm an American Shia Muslima, who isn't interested in hearing "bida" this and "bida" that. If people are kind to me, I'm kind in return. I want to hear that bus driver in Amman, Jordan...BAGHDAD! BAGHDAD! BAGHDAD!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd sometimes like to meet me in the past and tell myself in the low times that things haven't turned out so bad. My constant faith in God has never been a thing misplaced, even if my decisions could have been better. If for a fleeting moment I've felt hopeless, it was quickly pushed away for knowledge that I don't know what is ahead of me, and things have always had a way of working out the only way they should or could have. I embrace my mistakes as things that have shaped me into what I am today. With out them, I'd be a different me, and therefore, not me. Ponder that for a bit.

I hate Nascar!

I can't help it. I really can't. All I see is a bunch of bravado, drinking, and a huge waste of fuel. I mean, how much intelligence does it take to push a gas pedal? Why is it that people adore racing...

Some people have no idea

There are some people who come in our store and literally expect that we can compete with Walmart. Walmart has its own distributorships. What they buy, they buy in quantities that a 2000 sq ft store c...

I've been thinking a while about Nadya Suleman. This is MyRantSpace, so I can rant about what I want. This subject, like most that I come across, is something that I try to remain objective about. I a...

Oh, yes. I am.

Well, well, well. I've not posted anything in a while. Which, btw, does not reflect that nothing has happened. It only reflects my sheer laziness to type anything out. Sometimes it drains me, other ti...

I found

A house. And I'm in love with it. I'm a loyal lover though, and so now I can't even look at another house and see myself with it. Every house pales in it's shadow, and I think about it day in and day ...

Outraged

I am so angry and outraged at the bombings and acts against those in Mumbai. There is absolutely no way those guys can justify their acts as something that God will ever be pleased with or condone. It...

Granny-hood

Is great! But now when I get behind a slow driver, the move-over-granny thing has to be substituted with something else. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears. I hadn't expected to actually be i...
