I think it was when I heard their story, that I begged God never to call me to the mission field.
My BF in the FAC told me we could never get married if God wasn't calling me to be a missionary in Russia. Not *just* a missionary, mind you; a missionary in Russia. Pretty damn specific, if you ask me.
sumi, I well know the joy of the waiting room. Many vibes to those that wait.
I was born in the Year of the Cock.
You're supposed to wear red all year then. For good luck. supposedly. I did it all this past year (because it was year of the Monkey and I'm a monkey). My luck...well...the year had its ups and downs. Some very good/some very bad. And maybe I wasn't doing it right. Mostly I wore red nail polish.
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came
In the year of the cock
Hmm. Substituting "cock" for "cat" in the entire song sorta works.... [link]
(It's kind of like horseback riding in that respect, though I think explaining that would involve a lot of hand gestures and meditations on different strides and finding the right balance.)
How much do I love Plei? So very much.
My only comment on the whole "Christian purity" thing is to quote Buffy: "“Note to self: religion freaky.”
I wish I could be at F2f, but there is No Way again.
Yeah, me too.
Hey, I'm wearing red today. A good start.

Pssst! Don't go on a mission with Capt. Kirk today!
I also have red in one of my tattoos and I kept asking my friends of Chinese descent if that counted but nobody knew.
I don't think there's anything wrong with any purity philosophy, so long as it doesn't make those who weren't always involved in it feel like trash. The poor people Teppy was talking about, who had issues after marriage, over a pre-marital breast grope? That's sad.
I don't think any of my pre-Scott relationships gave me any meaningful experience/practice that added to my marriage bed. If I could tabula rasa them, I would. Emotionally, I think of myself as his virgin. I bet there's something nice about mutual, lifelong monogamy for a couple who started and continued that way.
