Interesante. The church by me is definitely charismatic, so I guess I'm just ignorant! Learn something every day.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Googling just "cornerstone" gives a Christian college, homeschooling materials, a group of affiliated Christian schools (w/ each other, the college, the homeschools, or all three I don't know), a contemporary Christian music festival, and a Christian cable TV channel all on the front page of results -- looks like it's something of a brand name (officially or not) in the Evangelical world.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I don't know how people deal with this when the other person is dangerous.
The couple of stalkers I've had have been of the undangerous variety, and not terribly persistent once I made clear in ruthlessly blunt terms that I wanted nothing more to do with them. But I am aware that my place of business is deep, deep in the woods, on land owned by my relatives, where no one will ever be digging without their permission...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. That still doesn't have any Christian resonance for me.
We were always taught that Jesus was the conrerstone of the Church, so we occasionally had sermons about cornerstones. Don't know if that's actually a Thing in the Lutheran church, or just a sermonic metaphor.

I'm going to have to have a serious talk with my father about this lapse.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Per usual, I should be doing laundry and am not.I did mine yesterday. Ten loads. Ten??? I live alone. How is that even possible? I still have the last load (sheets) to get out of the dryer and fold. I should do that Right Now.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Yay for honeymoon pictures!
I wish I had one more weekend day. Today, instead of buying a bathing suit, I bought a winter coat. Ah well. I feel like I'm buying a ridiculous amount of stuff, but the fact is, I spent two years not buying any big-ticket items, and had gotten rid of most of my work clothes before going to grad school, so.

It doesn't seem like a ridiculous amount to me. One must be clothed appropriately for work, after all.

It's true. And seriously, I'm not replacing anything that's less than three years old.
The crazy thing is, I literally can't remember the last coat I bought retail. OK, this was from Loehman's, but still. Most recent coat: on sale at Target. Before that, at least four vintage/thrift store coats. None of these was more than $50, and that brings me back like ten years. Crazy!
