No matter how bad a corpse looks, it seems like we NEED to see that for our closure, or something. I know, weird. <br />I have NO idea WHY we call it Shark Tank. Sharks don't seem to know a damn thing about investing money or start-up businesses. I like Dragon's Den much better. At least in fairy tales, dragons guard large amounts of gold, that makes SENSE. My husband plays the lottery every week, the same lottery numbers that his grandfather played his whole life, under the "it could happen" principle, so I feel like if this is meant to happen we will win that lottery. And MAKE it happen!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170306739961711124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2221717568608371907.post-67932029289481075442014-09-25T08:29:52.030-07:002014-09-25T08:29:52.030-07:00Thanks, glad you liked it.

I didn't want a big wedding, but as with everything I had NO say in what I was involved in during that whole relationship. My 2nd marriage? The WHOLE thing is a partnership, where we BOTH get to discuss what we want, what we need, what we can live with, it's a whole different way of life that I really love. The only reason we brought paperwork into it and actually got married is because we wanted to have kids and yes, I know you don't HAVE to be married to have kids, but take it from a single mom everything is a lot more complicated in our world right now, unfortunately.<br />If I'm invited to your funeral, I will make sure that happens. Even if I have to take one for the team.

We're big on closed casket... sure, it means it's really easy for everyone to fake their own death and then cremate and empty coffin as proof BUT we don't have to look at dead bodies so often. And any day where you don't see a dead body is a good day in my book. <br /><br />Loving your ideas though, think you should get that intellectual property protected FAST and then head on down to Dragon's Den with that shit...
