I look more rad than Lutheranism

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.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

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.

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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

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.

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.

What is even happening?

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.
