No Journal For Me As A Kid and You Don't Want To Know

When I was 10 I found my Mom reading my journal. I was pissed 100% off and got rather mad. She literally did not understand what she had done and I could never explain it to her. It was then I realized the idea of privacy meant to NEVER have any way for her to ever know something - so I could not put it on paper.

Also there where many times when she asked me about something and I would say "you don't want to know" - I would NOT say this twice as there was literally no point. She ALWAYS wanted to know and most of the time when I told her she was horrified or it shattered he illusion of who I was and she would say "you are right, I did not want to know". YET, every last time she would say "I want to know".

If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

My New Cuisinox Moka Pot

1. My friend Earth sent me the Moka pot I had in my Amazon Wishlist. I'm very grateful to have it, as the old one died (seal went) and I could not get parts to fix it. I'm very happy to have this. I was going to get one next month, but it would have been 2 weeks until I could get one and that long without a nice strong mug of coffee is a horrible fate to say the least. The French press makes coffee, but it's very much NOT strong and lacks the rich flavor that comes out of the Moka pot. 2. There she is, it's bigger than the old one but is supposed to make the same amount of coffee (9 espresso cups). 3. Here it is with the water in the base like you are supposed to do. It does indeed hold slightly more water than the old one does. 4. Nicely filled with Lavazza Rosa coffee (espresso). You don't want to over-fill it, just a bit from the top and don't pack it too tight. I wish I had one of those whisk tools for this task, they tend to make it slightly better, as it t
