I never though of the comment as referring to her emotional side. She's a wicked actress though and a lot of times gives this "death" stare and will NOT blink for anything. lol. Scarey as heck but I'm gonna wicked mad if she doesn't join the drama club at school 'cause I just know she'd rock!!!

I would agree with Ash, if the one daughter calls the other one emo like that, then she's actually probably insulting her-- thus your daughter is *not* emo. Personally, out of the two, I would think emo would *look* the best as far as extremes, but goth would be safer

Julliana I was thinking of you at lunch today. My "not-emo" girl ordered the summer salad which had tomato, fresh mozzarella and lemon cucumbers in it. I had never seen a lemon cucumber before and once I tasted it I'm now hooked and will plant some next year. Do you have any in your garden? I kept thinking...I bet Julliana grows these!!!

I found a site that I'm thinking of ordering seeds from www.heirloomseeds.com but I'm a lil wary only because they're just sooo cheap compared to gurney seeds. Have you ever bought from there before?

I honestly think goth and emo sometimes come because the parents are pretty open about expressing their feelings and encouraging their kids to do so as well. I have yet to see a single emo with 2 southern baptist republican parents but I have seen lots of emos and goths with single moms raising them. I appreciate the right to express yourself but living close to Deltona , the city in Florida where the goth vampire cult lived with the 18 year old who convinced a bunch of 15 year olds to slaughter an entire household because someone stole his nintendo, I wouldnt put up with blue hair and striped stockings and cutting. Ive seen too many kids end up super messed up , starting off with the marilyn manson outfits and degenerating into wearing only black, cutting etc. Id be on the phone to a therapist if my kid came home wanting to be gothy or emo. One of my best friends has a 16 year old goth/emo kid and this girl starting hanging around like 25 to 29 year old goths and ran away with a 29 year old lesbian who sexually abused her. I have no interest in my kids piercing themselves to pieces in the name of creativity. Limits are a heck of alot better. Its not cute as far as I am concerned

LOL! I *am* growing lemon cucumbers! Heirloom seeds is fine. I have several things from them. If you want to pay more, then i'd go with Baker Creek (rareseeds.com) which is a totally awesome website and catalog of massive ammounts of fantastic open-polinated seed. Be sure to check the shipping costs, as some of the cheap places charge more for shipping. I order from too many places to remember who. I do know BC is awesome though.

I have another friend who is in her late 40s who was kind of hippish and her 19 year old is covered with tatoos and spikes and she has cuts all over and the mom just brushes it off as her being a kid. How messed up do you have to look before the mother says HEY you will ruin your chance to get a good job by putting that1 inch coin in your ear. Or how ignored are these kids for them to be doing all this garbage in the first place? When I see seriously messed up looking kids the first person I look at is the mom. If you are doing your job, the first time you see a cut, you get them help. You dont dismiss it as cute. Its not

That sounds nuts! I can't imagine. i was more or less a grunge kid in HS.. but not quite. There is a subset of grunge where the people look perfectly fine but maybe pair a thrift-store pair of pants with a nice shirt... or whatever... it's a mix and match you find from people who walk the line of liking grunge, hard rock, and brit music... so like we liked the Cure and Depeche mode just as much as Stone Temple Pilots and Nirvana. We knew people who fit jnicely into each and every one of the genres, but we floated around between them. We had skater and surfer friends, etc. So we got into all of the kids of things and I never saw anything that bad. We saw both cheerleaders and goth chicks kill themselves. it was just a function of the person themselves. I've seen children of Southern baptists be goth and emo... and I've seen something even better-- Mormons Sometimes, if the parents are strict enough, what you get are those who just come to school and change.

I want twins ....Being a twin, I loved having a twin sister...inshallah one day

I believe, if im not mistaken, crazyinegyt also has one boy and one girl, and now nawal, woudlnt that be something if jade and tnh did also>

Kelly u have a huge chance of having twins since u re a twin n its always a higher percentage if the trait is from the female's side.

i really hope i do have twins someday but i dont have anyone in the family who r twins but then again anything can happen lol.
