16 Through 20

16: Someone or something you definitely could live without. 

Something: Migraines.

That would be awesome.

 17: A book you’ve read that changed your views on something. 

I haven't read a good book that has changed my views on anything in such a long time (I follow my high school English teacher's family's blog (I am not a stalker. He has adorable kids.) and I'm sure if he read that statement, he'd be so disappointed in me).

Depressing.

 18: Your views on gay marriage. 

I agree with John Lennon when he wrote, "All You Need is Love"

I believe in equality for all, regardless of race, sex, age, sexual preference, etc. 

 19: What do you think of religion? 

I believe that whatever makes you happy, makes me happy, but I won't indulge in my beliefs at this time.

 20: Your views on drugs and alcohol. 

Wow. Um. Drugs and alcohol and my views on them...

I am not in favor of illegal drugs, abuse of prescription drugs or even the word 'drug'. 

Alcohol... I enjoy a cold glass of Mascoto D'asti once in a while.

I'm sure I will have let down a few friends who read my blog. 

I'm not going to hide it, though. 

I'm an adult. 

I have a child out of wedlock. 

I used to smoke. 

I drink sometimes. 

I curse and do a lot of other things that my grandmother wouldn't approve of. 

This is me. 

I will take the bad with the good and will pay for my mistakes, that some people may think I'm making, when I choose to do so. 

For some reason I'm dreading the next 5 confessions (no, I haven't read them yet, so I don't know what I'm in for).

I've never posted anything here where I felt I've had to justify myself like I just did. 

It's almost a painful, gut-wrenching feeling to do so.

Keep moving forward, right?
