libkitty, that is beautiful. That's what I want to point to when people spew hate and call it "Christianity." Because it's not. What the other congregation did for yours -- *that's* what I consider the crux of Jesus's message to be: take care of each other, love each other, don't fuck shit up.
Though I doubt Jesus would have used the profanity.

I'm not so sure about that, although I completely agree with the point of Christianity. A friend at church asked me if I thought we would have done the same. I don't know. I hope so. But if we wouldn't have before, I think we would be a lot more likely to in the future. It's like this is all the most incredible lesson ever.
When you're online you can be IMHO-Tep.
BWAH!!!
Hm. I have 2 wedding presents to get before June, both for already-household-established couples, so I will be taking notes. The Roomba is a good idea.
One of the couples is our long-time friend and Mal's honorary uncle and his Moldovan girlfriend. We'll be going to Moldova for the wedding there. They'll also have a wedding in the States in the autumn. Some of our other friends in the States who know him via us wrote him and offered to through them a shower, something to welcome her to the States. I was surprised, and proud of them. She's really awesome, and I imagine it's not a little scary to move away from your home country.
I want to get married just so billytea will send a gift! Ok. Not really, but, man, you sure are a nice guy. Wallybee is one lucky lady!
Funny Days stuff!
Jen, freaky! You stay safe!
Must go catch up in LJ and read libkitty's post.
Timelies all!
billytea is a pearl among the swine of humanity. I realize that I need to take notes on how to be A Good Human from him.
Cass, what are you doing up??? Poor bunny!
I was looking for good places to stop and chit chat eventually.
Someone remind me to send my taxes out. They've been done for like three weeks, and I just haven't mailed them. I'm imagining myself forgetting. That would be BAD.
vw, are you getting a refund?
Um. Yes.
I KNOW! I KNOW! It's just...I don't know what I need to send, 'cause the instructions are unclear, and I need to call my dad and ask, and he's gonna be mad at me that I haven't mailed them yet. And, well, it's a vicious cycle.
