Hubby and I have spent this stormy, rainy night watching cable news awaiting the report that Saddam Hussein had been executed. What a bizarre way to spend an evening. There is no doubt that Hussein deserves a special spot in Hell right next to Hitler, Stalin and many others, but there is just something creepy and unsettling about waiting to hear about the death of someone. Plus, it brings up the age-old debate about killing a person in order to show the world that killing people is wrong.
Hubby also mentioned how this is the strangest death trifecta in recent memory...James Brown, President Ford, and now Saddam Hussein...i.e., the Godfather of Soul, the Accidental President, and the Butcher of Baghdad.
Anyway, this has been yet another yucky, boring, rainy day and night. I fear that the next two months are going to be longest of my life. I am getting so uncomfortable at night recently...thanks to millions of 3 AM potty breaks, some mild contractions, and never being able to find a truly comfortable position to sleep in.
