I'm the first person to call myself a bitch, used to be my user title, in fact, so I don't consider it an insult. And the last thing I ever am is passive aggressive, but I'm simply in no position to play debate this weekendheatherrae said:
As far as pedantic, not me, all I have under my belt is a year and a half of of trade school, taken at night. And as far as wisdom, if I had any of that I wouldn't have made as many mistakes as I have and still do. When I tell people they're about to step in shit, it's generally because I just got done scraping my own boots off not too long ago.But you're spot on about the fact I'm not old enough to be your mother (surprise, surprise, you're 36). Honestly, by the tone of your posts, I put you about 10 years younger.
Be that as it may, interpret what what I said how you wish, I honestly meant what I said. I don't know you, so I don't know WHAT you're like, any more than you know what I'm like (despite the fact that you clearly think you do). Besides, there's plenty of people on this board who don't really give a shit if you call them immature, shallow and materialistic. I can think of several individuals I've said that to and their response was, "Yeah, and your point? I'm PROUD of the fact I'm pissing my life away in search of the ultimate high!"
Now, to return to the original point: I've been a part time working mother, full time working mother, and a stay at home mom ... the last thing I've ever cared about what how the world defined me or even how I defined myself in the world.
You are a woman, an American Indian, you have a degree in law, and you are in the position to not have to work for a living, congratulations on grabbing the brass ring. Ever think about giving something back to your people, doing pro bono work? You've been blessed, so pass the blessings on, so to speak. Then if someone asked you what you are you could look them in the eye and say I'm a philanthropist, or an activist, or whatever.
Otherwise, join the legions: you're a housewife (or a domestic goddess, depending on how much daytime t.v. you enjoy and how little cooking/cleaning you do) until you get pregnant, then you're a stay at home mom. If you don't like those terms, sorry, but really, what do you expect when you ask those of us who inhabit the virtual reality world to hazard a definition of your actual reality?

Lots of hate around here.
Jealousy in my estimation. I like Heather's posts.
And my bugs keep asking for another shot.
.......If I had any they would.

Hopefully you're not talking about me regarding jealousy, sugar, I seriously don't have time for that infantile emotion.
But you really must elucidate a little WTF does the bugs needing a shot comment mean? Seriously. Inquiring minds want to know
"What do you do?"
My response is always.... "As little as possible."
You could say "Former Attorney, but now I'm a housewife."
I don't think that would give you too much trouble.
I'm not retired, I'm in between jobs. Since 1988.

I agree on the last 5 posts, my daughter is 10 months WOW she is changing everyday, almost walking!
awww ... I am so NOT ready for Baby Daisy to start walking. How fun to watch, but what a nightmare to contain! lol She scoots around on the floor on her butt or tummy, but is not REALLY mobile yet.
We (proud parents) have officially hijacked this thread.

Well, as far as immaturity goes, lady, the little that I know of you was a few mass emails a few months ago in which you begged everyone on EF not to talk to Omega because he was bombing you or some shit. That sounds incredibly mature to me.
If you knew me at all, you would already realize that I have done tons of pro bono work, and continue to do charity work even though I'm not in law.
You used the word housewife in your original, pointedly hateful post as a pejorative, and this post smacks of it too.
I don't watch daytime television. I think that must be your specialty, judging from the Dr. Phil-esque bullshit advice you love to sling around here to anyone who will listen to you.
Honestly, you are a pretty hateful bitch. You may want to work on that.

Then what's you're problem? Whether you're doing pro bono or getting paid is arbitrary, if you're maintaining your license you're a lawyer.
I didn't say housewife as a pejorative, I said "LAZY housewife," a la Peg Bundy, and since I've been one myself I couldn't possibly use the term pejoratively
and I have NO time for daytime t.v., I have to work for a living (that's the problem with marrying for love, all the romance, none of the free time). I have a deadline to make every day, and doctors are, if anything MORE impatient than lawyers (remarkable discovery, being self employed is actually more than twice the work of going out to an office was, who would have imagined). Just a general observation, I've always loved the fact that people who are the first to tell you what good Christians they are, how much they love god and all its works --
-- are usually the first ones to call someone they don't know one single, solitary hard fact about, evil, nasty, disrespectful names. Now me, I'm a pagan, and my current project is trying to find the divinity within every one. Remarkable how hard it is sometimes.What never ceases to amaze me is that all I've ever done is make observations based on what people themselves write (which is the only information available here in virtual reality, and it's not just you dear, it isn’t always the HR show), but it almost never fails to ruffle the hell out of their feathers. You asked what you are, all I've tried to do was answer that question based on the information immediately at hand. You didn't like my answers, you got really nasty and resorted to name calling (but I'm the hateful bitch ... funny ass world). Now the men, they can say truly insulting things, that's fine, you come right back flirting. Me, I try to josh with you a little, and I get insulted, and you don't even know me.
Ah well, I know better than to debate a lawyer, HR, you have years more education, you're naturally wired to be competitive, and you're trained to be an utter bulldog when it comes to manipulating a situation to your advantage ... and like I said, I just don't have the time to play games. You know what you are, why ask a question you already know the answer to?
Time's a wasting ... "UNCLE,” there you win, feel better, dear?
OMG GL - what a cutie! Love those two teethies ..... SHe looks so freaking happy.

Well, I'm pretty good at judging when people are joshing and actually enjoy a good roast. Now, you can go backwards and backtrack and say that you were joking if you like, but it was pretty obvious that you began attacking me out of the blue when I've never had an unkind word to ever say to you.
My best friend in the world is wiccan and I was her maid of honor at a wiccan wedding last semain. So don't give me that Christians are intolerant and evil bullshit. You are actually boring the shit out of me with that one.
Now, with your insinuation that you married for love and that I didn't, I guess it doesn't matter what some shrew of a woman on the internet really thinks, but had I wanted to marry for money, I could have done so many, many years ago instead of struggling and putting myself through law school. I don't operate that way, though and held out for love. The fact that he is successful enough to treat me to nice things and to not need me to play nursemaid or maid is just a bonus. Good for him, but I would love him anyway.
So, Molly Menopause, cool off the hot flashes and play nice and maybe someone will wind up your car and drive you to the speakeasy.
You haven't said one unkind word to me ... wow, you really have a wonderfully selective memory.heatherrae said:
How you choose to interpret what I say in my posts is your business, and you have a most interesting interpretation ...
... have you given serious consideration to the fact that you might be a crazy little woman?
You have a real persecution complex, HR.

Really? when before your diatribe of name calling on this thread, page 3, have I ever been anything but nice to you? Have you ever thought that you are a tiresome and stodgy bore?

heather, nobody ever asks me "what are you?"
But if they were, i'd say "i'm an artist", whether I earn a living with it or not. You're still a lawyer, right? I mean, did you let your license lapse? Just say you're a lawyer- if they ask where, you can say "i'm not working right now."
what you are isn't defined by how you earn a living. and if it was, then you'll have to say "concubine" or something similar.

You know. You are 100% correct. No, my license is still good. =-) I think that I may take the florida bar and do some work down here, anyway. I used to think it was too stressful, but I find myself missing the excitement and the writing. My favorite thing was always writing pleadings, briefs, and the like.
Thanks for the advice.
