testing

OK, so the blog rating system has really peaked my curiosity. This blog is rated by the system as PG due to my use of the word "shit" once and the word "hell" twice. On other blogs the words: murder, pain, torture, blood, suicide, death, dead, and profanity like the word "fuck" have led to ratings of R or even worse. I'm really not sure how the rating system is working, but these words all were apparently ignored on my blog (not this one). What did lead to a rating of NC 17 (wow!) was my use of the words: shoot (which I used eight times), sex, and ass. I really do think it is the sex-related words that led to the higher rating. I wonder if there is a XXX rating? I'm too embarrassed to test out a bunch of sexually-explicit words (but it may just be that using the word "sex" regardless of the context will do it.)

Let's see...

This rating is due to the use of the following words:
Hell (3X)
Sex (2X)
XXX (1X)

So I suppose if I were to check the rating it would indicate an increased use of those words (yet it continues to ignore the other words...maybe since these words are so "bad" it makes them null?). Ok, this has been enough of a distraction for now; I will try to move on to do more productive things with my day.

Hmm...so I guess I could raise my rating if I sealed my posts with XXX kisses or discussed Super Bowl XXX.

I'm glad we found each other. I'm in a support group with a woman who has "incompetent" cervix and yes we talk about that name a lot. As if you don't feel bad enough already they have to label your body parts as "incompetent". She's actually had two losses because of it (why it would take her doctor two losses for them to take her condition seriously I have no idea, but then my doc. let me go past my due date with a baby with only one umblilical artery instead of the normal two... but I'm not angry ; ) ) She's now considering thinking about TTC. She found a perinatologist who all but promised his cerclage technique would work. She still isn't quite ready to try and who can blame her. About your blog: I've lurked for a while and I love it.
