I'm mad because Christians who are doing this...
(via inothernews) Yeah, that’s pretty ucky. There are Christians who pray every day for the safety of our President. Not that I believe prayers offset each other, but I hope it’s a comfort that it isn’t a Christian idea to pray for the demise of anyone. In fact that seems pretty anti-Christian to me.

An individual took our org’s name for Facebook’s vanity URL (even though it’s nowhere near her name/she’s not affiliated w/ us at all). We couldn’t claim it b/c we didn’t have enough fans, but apparently you only need 25 to claim one now? Whatever the case, dud city.

Hey, thanks so much for the words of support,...
yosamanthrax: It has, through absolutely no fault of your own, made me even sadder because the only people I have to talk to about this are you guys and my mom, and it’s my mom’s birthday and I don’t want to ruin it with another emotional crisis.   And you, even though you’re all strangers, show me more kindness than anyone I know in my real life.  So it’s sad and wonderful.  Thanks. Your...

yosamanthrax: I can’t even put together cohesive sentences right now because there is snot running down my face.  Sorry. Deep breaths. Drink some water. Find a distraction and get through today. I’m so sorry that you feel so bad. If it helps I do the same thing when I go look at MySpace, so I’ve basically stayed away from it. Is there a way you could block him out of your Facebook...

Best way to lose weight...
thinnerthoughts: Live in NYC. They display the calories of all the food. Makes you not want to eat - or make better choices at least. And you walk - A LOT. So yeah. I wish this were true for me. I live in NYC and have for two years … and I’ve gained weight. I definitely walk more than I drive, but I work from home, so that kind of negates any benefits. I’m turning things...

NYC
yosamanthrax: thinnerthoughts: yosamanthrax:thinnerthoughts: Why don’t you grab lunch with an NYC tumblr? I just texted one but I don’t know any others… and every time I put a thing on here asking if anyone wanted to hang out no one responded. I guess NYC tumblrs don’t love me :( Okaaay.  Well, don’t just sit around… buy new shoes and go do stuff. You could go see Precious … or...

I had been expecting negative feedback on something, and while the delayed response was not positive by any means, I didn’t get my head chewed off and can actually use the feedback to make changes in the right direction. How sad is it that I get physically sick when working with some people? (I know they don’t really like me either, so I guess we’re even.)

Why Am I?
In the faith class yesterday we talked about LOVE, and jealousy came up … then problems at work. Something that came out of the discussion was that a lot of the mean things people do are because of a deep-seated (-seeded? Nope.) need to be loved. So why do I do the mean things I do? THAT is a question tumbling in my mind today as I try to be not mean. It’s not going so great, even...
