I should be using my motivation on working right now, but I don't wanna. Quick, take the motivation before I change my mind.
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

ow. Sinuses are really hurting. Like, cheek bones are hurting. Eyes bulging. I succumbed. I took some cold medicine. Something I haven't done in ages, because it always sends me to the stratosphere. I'm hoping the 1/2 dose dries out the sinuses, gets rid of the aches and pains, but not enough to launch brain into space. Ugggg. I hate having to work in these conditions. Stupid tech.

gathers motivation to her, then realizes she has to swap over loads of laundry
Laundry won't use up the motivation. It won't, it won't, it won't.

All is well that ends in pizza.
My boys. My friends. My generation. The stuff we'll have to cross to make something worthy out of all of this mess.
Bears.
Oh, the bears you'll cross!

I decided upon the BluRay of the third PotC movie, as it's silly and over-the-top, but I don't feel the need to watch it closely. I've copy & pasted the two letters I'm answering in this GCS column into a Word doc, and the info that Liese kindly sent me about Christian goth resources. That counts as progress, right?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
That counts as progress, right?
Excellent progress. (And blessings to Liese -- I frequently think of the unknown-to-me-personally girl who was kicked out of DH's hardcore fundie high school and her family from their church for practicing freakin' witchcraft, when only her crime was being the only goth kid in a tiny town in New Hampshire.)

Yes, you're absolutely correct. You are no help.

Oh, poor kidling! Yeah, this GCS is going to be a tricky one. I've got lots of info and advice for the gothling who's parents are concerned she's abandoning her faith because she's wearing black Victorian clothing and likes Nightmare Before Christmas. But the other letter is from a reader who went to Christian school for six years, and after leaving school started exploring other spiritual paths and has become a Satanist. (Which, fine. I know some very nice Satanists.) She wants advice on how to explain to her still-Christian friends that she doesn't intend to go back to their faith. That letter, that's the one that has me scratching my head. It's a great question, and I really want to address it. It's just going to be complex.

I don't know why I think "very nice Satanists" is funny. Given the numbers of scary Christians, I shouldn't be surprised, but still...
