I look more rad than Lutheranism

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VORTEX!!!

The cold I have is kicking my ass.

They do that. They have no regard for nice weather, either.

I still have a lingering cough, almost 3 weeks after my bad cold -- no other symptoms -- and every time I exert myself for longer than 5 minutes, my chest starts to feel really tight and burny.

Which is to say: if this cold made my asthma kick back in after more than 10 years of no asthma attacks, I'm going to be PISSED. (Yes, I know, I live with 2 cats and 2 dogs; it's likely that it would have happened anyway, but it's still annoying.)

And no, I haven't had a full-blown asthma attack, or even anything I'd identify as wheezing. But the dry cough and tight chest is worrying me. (In addition to PISSING ME OFF.)

Happy Birthday Vortex!

It's been cold and rainy all day, so I have opted to exercise my rainy day perogative and have stayed in and napped and lazed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I went out and experienced the good weather, although I didn't enjoy it as I probably should have. I am more hung over than I thought. And than I should be! I didn't drink that much last night, but I guess I didn't eat much, either. Ugh. I did walk around and did errands, so that's good.

Happy Birthday Vortex!

Are we still talking religion? 'Cause I saw a guy downtown today wearing a t-shirt that said "Jesus made me Kosher." What does that even mean??

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I don't know what that means. My best guess is it's some Messianic thing.

In odd t-shirts, I some someone today wearing a shirt that said "Liberalism Breeds Terrorism" on the front and "Terrorism Breeds Liberalism" on the back.

I resisted saying "Wouldn't that depend on how Jesus slaughtered you?" but it was a near thing.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Probably Jews for Jesus or a similar organization, and I think the theological concept behind it is kosher in the broader sense of pure/clean--translated into, say, Baptist, it would be "Jesus cleansed me from my sins."

Huh. In that case it seems kind of assholish confrontational.
