Now I'm picturing Trudy's grandma having kid after kid just to get out of going to confession.
It does make one wonder...
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Actually, half of them are born in June which always makes me wonder if my Grandparents were having nooners as soon as the kids went back to school.

Always Anti-fascist!
I've lived a distressingly pure life, not really by design, and yet, the way I understand it, since thoughts count, if I'm being honest, I would have crazy-long confessions. "Father, today my brother took the last lemon for my water and I wished harm upon his person." Then I go to a lot of internet communities founded to house covetous and lustful thoughts(BITCHES: Shoutout!) Sometimes about public officials(RahmBamarama) or newscasters(ko_daily, RPF) Cursing alone could take up a lot of confession time.

Congratulations, Gris!!!
Interview~ma for MM.
Gronk. I slept in so late today. It's been a crazy couple of weekends with another crazy weekend coming up. So, I figured I should take advantage of the sleep while I can. Tonight TCG and I are going to look at the notes we made of all the places we visited and decide when we are going to get married! I am worried that are preferences are going to be different.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I miss church more weeks than I go. It's such a good thing I'm an Anglican. (Where I can also be gay. As long as I don't try to get ordained. Because we're all about the hypocrisy.)
Cursing alone could take up a lot of confession time.
I used to try not to swear, but I've given up in recent years. Calling other drivers bastardy fucking wankers is preferable to attempting to kill them. I think.

Yay! Have fun.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Congratulations, Gris!
I like the general idea of confession, but I get hung up on the priest part. I don't see where they'd have the authority to absolve someone. That seems like it goes against "judge not lest ye be judged," and infringes on a deity's territory.

masturbation [yes, whacking off is equivalent to murder]
And here's where I pull out my Catholic grade school story in which it was announced that masturbation was a sin. Cue every kid in the room looking confused and asking the kid next to him/her, "What's masturbation?" Good old Catholic education!

Good wishes for my oldest sister as she starts another round of chemo, this one involving hospitalizations because of the time it takes for administering the drugs. She's feeling frail and listless and has to force herself to eat because of the growths in her pelvis. Reconnecting with family over funerals is not the way to do it.
