Giles ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
P-C -- what everyone said about your sister and the email. It's a load of bullshit, typewritten manipulation of the worst kind. I don't know if you're looking for how to respond but if you do, remember to use "I" statements.
And sadly, as I found out, "I was wondering what the FUCK is wrong with you?" does not count.
And sadly, as I found out, "I was wondering what the FUCK is wrong with you?" does not count.
You need to put the statement in terms of your feelings, such as "I feel terribly confused when I can't work out what the FUCK is wrong with you."
Yeah, that didn't go over either.
Oh, James Franco. WTF. He's got an art exhibition. [link]
Another work explores a romantic encounter between "Star Trek" characters Spock and James T. Kirk.

Oh, yeah, he applied to the grad program at Maryland Institute College of Art this year! He got in, actually, but decided he wanted to pursue some other program at, possibly, Yale?
P-C, I'm sorry you're going through this. And I find what you're going through very much like what I went through with my family. It sounds like the relationships were similar.
Assuming that, I have two things to tell you. First, you're never going to satisfy them. Whatever you do, however much you give, they'll find fault. If you met their every demand, if you anticipated their wishes and fulfilled them, they'd still find something to criticize. That's the bad news. The good news is that it has nothing to do with you. It's them. They want something that doesn't - can't - exist. They don't understand that their demands are unreasonable, all they know is that they want something and they're looking to you to fill their needs.
So I'll repeat what everyone here has been telling you. You're a good person, a good friend and, in spite of what you're being told, a good son. Do what your heart tells you is right for you and, as much as possible, for your family. Take care of yourself emotionally and physically.
{{{{{P-C}}}}} I'm sorry your sister is piling on to the guilt trip. Stay strong.
I need to stop panicking and start getting stuff done. I really don't think I can handle this upcoming weekend. The house is still a mess, and I still feel like crap.
I just got into my office and checked my messages, and I've got another phone interview. This one is for a job in Savannah.
Ooohh, Savannah! 3rd oldest Reform Congregation in the US at Mickve Israel, which is a lovely Gothic synagogue right in downtown. My grandmother used to be a docent there.
