    <content type="html">Well I was in the hospital from last Sat. to Tues. I was having pre term labor and they decided to stop it. The meds they gave me only made it worse and I just had the wost time. My doctor told me that once I hit 34 weeks they would not do anything to stop the labor because that is full term for twins. So as of Thursday I am 34 weeks and waiting for the labor to progress. &lt;br /&gt;I had my last ultrasound on Wed. and the girls weigh 4lbs 12oz. each!!! &lt;br /&gt;I am so happy that they are fat babies. &lt;br /&gt;If they stay in till the 31st of this month then they will induce my labor. &lt;br /&gt;I am so excited to meet them. I have gained like 50 lbs so far and if they don't come out soon there is no hope for my waist!!!&lt;br /&gt;I will keep you all posted on the news and will call Nate when I pop.&lt;br /&gt;ALso Trish is due tomorrow so she is going to pop anytime now!!&lt;br /&gt;I will post again soon&lt;br /&gt;James</content>

As most of you know she is pregnant, she went out and got two tattoos. I know that you are not even suppose to do that whne you are pregnant and told her so. I also said to ask her doc about it just in case. Since she is almost 5 months along and finally got around to getting her first appointment on the 8th, she just went and got her self tatted. &lt;br /&gt;Am I wrong to be upset with her? I mean most of us know this right?&lt;br /&gt;SHe just semms not to care that much about what is inside of her and is still refusing to take care of herself. still smoking, always eatting fast food and now this??&lt;br /&gt;I really don't know what to do. :(&lt;br /&gt;Any ideas???&lt;br /&gt;well gots to go &lt;br /&gt;talk to you all soon.</content>

    <content type="html">I have offically done it this time!!&lt;br /&gt;I am moving in with my boyfriend (of one month) and I am very happy about it.&lt;br /&gt;I know everyting seems to be moving fast and yes that is true, but I can say I am so in love and comfortable about it that it is the right thing to do. Xoe loves him to death and calls him daddy. Nate likes him(or that is what he tells me) and my family does as well. which surprises the hell out of me. They normally try to find the worst in everyone. I am actually happy with this man. He is the complete person I have been looking for. &lt;br /&gt;My sister is also expecting her first child. I am so happy for her. &lt;br /&gt;Also great to hear that Jonas is home. Thom and Maria I hope eveything is clear sailing from here on.&lt;br /&gt;you guys deserve it.&lt;br /&gt; I also am now working two jobs, at both resturants at the tram. Have to stay busy, or I could get in to trouble. Hope everyone else is going great.&lt;br /&gt;peace</content>

So far he is trying to gt my boss to turn agaist me and spreading rumors about himself stating that I am the one that started them. So I am just going to try and nold this job till I can't take it anymore. Other then that everything is good. Just living and working.&lt;br /&gt;Hope everyone is doing good.&lt;br /&gt;Congrates to Luis and Dulce. they way you all got married was a lot better then what you all had planned on.&lt;br /&gt;Talk to you all soon &lt;br /&gt;James</content>

    <content type="html">You Know You're From New Mexico When...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You buy salsa by the gallon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are still using the paper license tag that came with your car five years ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your favorite restaurant has a chile list instead of a wine list.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You do all your shopping and banking at a drive-up window.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your Christmas decorations include "a yard of sand and 200 paper bags".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have license plates on your walls, but not on your car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most restaurants you go to begin with "El" or "Los".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You remember when Santa Fe was not like San Francisco.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You hated Texans until the Californians moved in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The tires on your roof have more tread than the ones on your car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You price-shop for tortillas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have an extra freezer just for green chile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You think a red light is merely a suggestion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You believe that using a turn signal is a sign of weakness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You don't make eye contact with other drivers because you can't tell how well armed they are just by looking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You think six tons of crushed rock makes a beautiful front lawn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have to sign a waiver to buy hot coffee at a drive-up window.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You ran for state legislature so you can speed legally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You pass on the right because that's the fast-lane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have read a book while driving from Albuquerque to Las Vegas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know they don't skate at the Ice House and the Newsstand doesn't sell newspapers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You think Sadies was better when it was in the bowling alley.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have used aluminum foil and duct tape to repair your air conditioner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can't control your car on wet pavement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a piece of a UFO displayed in your home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know that The Jesus Tortilla is not a band.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You wish you had invested in the orange barrel business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You just got your fifth DWI and got elected to the state legislature in the same week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your swamp cooler got knocked off your roof by a dust devil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have been on TV more than three times telling about how your neighbor was shot or about your alien abduction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can actually hear the Taos hum.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All your out-of-state friends and relatives visit in October.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know Vegas is a town in the northeastern part of the state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are afraid to drive through Mora and Espanola.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You iron your jeans to "dress up".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You don't see anything wrong with drive-up window liquor sales.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your other vehicle is also a pick-up truck.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two of your cousins are in Santa Fe, one in the legislature and the other in the state pen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know the punch line to at least one Espanola joke.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your car is missing a fender or bumper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have driven to an Indian Casino at 3am because you were hungry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You think the Lobos fight song is "Louie, Louie"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know whether you want "red or green."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You're relieved when the pavement ends because the dirt road has fewer pot-holes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can correctly pronounce Tesuque, Cerrillos, and Pojoaque.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have been told by at least one out-of-state vendor that they are going to charge you extra for "international" shipping.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You expect to pay more if your house is made of mud.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can order your Big Mac with green chile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You see nothing odd when, in the conversations of the people in line around you at the grocery store, every other word of each sentence alternates between Spanish and English.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You associate bridges with mud, not water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know you will run into at least 3 cousins whenever you shop at Wal-Mart, Sam's or Home Depot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tumbleweeds and various cacti in your yard are not weeds. They are your lawn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you travel anywhere, no matter if just to run to the gas station, you must bring along a bottle of water and some moisturizer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trailers are not referred to as trailers. They are houses. Double-wide trailers are "real" houses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A package of white flour tortillas is the exact same thing as a loaf of bread. You don't need to write it on your shopping list; it's a given.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At any gathering, regardless of size, green chile stew, tortillas, and huge mounds of shredded cheese are mandatory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prosperity can be readily determined by the number of horses you own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A tarantula on your porch is ordinary. A scorpion in your tub is ordinary. A poisonous centipede on your ceiling? Ordinary. A black widow crawling across your bed is terribly, terribly common. A rattlesnake is an occasional hiking hazard. No need to freak out.</content>
