breast cancer awareness month

I got this brilliant idea from WhyRUStalkingMe, and since I hate to turn down a cause to support, I too just donated my boobies at the 2009 Boobiethon. If you are willing, donate yours too. Gentlemen, you can donate your boobies as well ... and they are highly appreciated. Also, cancer research support is highly important in my family since three of my grandparents have died long painful cancer riddled deaths, as well as my grandmother-in-law being a breast cancer survivor with only one breast:

The 8th Annual Blogger Boobie-Thon returns October 1, 2009! That’s right, the Boobies are Back! In an effort to raise money for breast cancer research, hundreds of bloggers (both women and men) are donating their rack shots between October 1st to 7th. The boobiethon.com site features a covered section and bare boobie area (which requires a $50 donation to access). In the past 7 years the Boobie-Thon has raised over $50,000 and we’re back again for another year of fun for a great cause. For more information regarding breast cancer, visit the Susan G. Komen site.

Through that glorious ever changing BlogHer blogroll on the right of my site, (under the ad bar), I found a new blogger to stalk in my spare time. (Read: not that often behind Angel, Morgan, Queenie, Sarah, Mia, and MrD ... but oh the attempt will be made.)

Sarah Stealy is the name, IonaPig or Tinseltown, Tagalog & Tar Heels is the blog. I am going to directly quote her blog so all my few faithful readers can see what makes this new writer, to my visualize world, stand a little higher than the rest:

Bernie is big. Bernie is bossy. Bernie likes to sit on my chest. Bernie also changes color depending on his mood. And since he sits on my chest most of the time, his color greatly affects mine. When he is bright red and angry, I can feel my temperature rising. When he is blue and sad, so am I. When he is bright and green, I want to ask about things I know I shouldn't and I push lots of buttons. When he is yellow, I am calm. When he is pink, I am filled with ADD and jumping around like a five year-old. He is rarely gray and he rarely lets me sleep.

Female fetuses are stronger than males that's why there are more women in the world than men.
