I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.

Retail therapy!
but the big question is will you feel better when you get the credit card bill....
you know...I was killing time waiting for my food to show up at lunch yesterday and reading an old issue of, I believe it was family circle. there was much mail about some guy who was "ruminating" (his word) on the "ideal family size". does all this "ruminating" do much? or is it a serious control issue. I noticed thru the magazine a number of articles "ruminating' on stupid stuff, stuff that doesnt matter, is beyond our control. however, I thought of Kate and I thought of the fact that perhaps there is so much "ruminating' out there because people like her run up the credit card bills and spend money willy nilly yet really have no other identifiably marketable skills to finance them. so they ruminate on stupid stuff and make issues out of things that dont need to be issues (like how she thinks you will be paying big bucks to a therapist if you refuse to put your baby at risk of death by "sleep sharing")
isnt it nice to know that the bad parenting advice you are cozying up to is financing expensive silk shirts because Kate wont shop at Wal Mart???? so she writes useless trivel so she can afford NOT to shop at Wal Mart. but the big question though is was that silk shirt made by underpaid slave labor in Malaysia???because if it was Katie, you better throw it right on out into the trash because you and your wal mart trashing liberal leftist self will be a hypocrite. when you are engaging in your shopping addiction do you check the labels in those upscale stores to make sure that they are not carrying on exactly as wal mart does but only with better fabric?
I don't use credit cards...ever.
And you are probably right about poor, underpaid, non-union people making my shirt. That's probably the case.
-Katie
"Useless trivel [sic]?"
As opposed to the useful drivel of so many anonymous jackasses?
so what you are saying Kate, is that you are a hypocrite. if underpaid slave labor makes your shirt and you buy it at an upscale boutique, then thats the way of the world, sad but thats the way it is. HOWEVER, if its Wal Mart..which makes such a convenient target because after all Kate, its poor white trash that shops there and you arent poor white trash Kate, no not at all you of the country club horsy set....THEN its just horrible that they exploit people to get the goods into the hands of the ignorant poor white trash that doesnt realize that mere babies in Thailand were exploited to make their cheap clothes. the exploited who make Kates designer duds from trendy boutiques, oh well, thats just tough tittie for them, eh Kate?
not buying american hurts alot all around...not just the human rights issue but those on our own soil who wind up unemployed because its cheaper to make stuff overseas.
