He would probably be regarded as a conservative in many things, but he is also a Christian in the old sense of the word: he funds foster homes and millions in scholarships and employees are rewarded for participating in the community.

unfortunately this old school Christianity is reflected in the company's treatment of gays. There was an article in the New York times about it earlier this year. A friend of mine has a gay friend who is in PR, and the Chick Fil A people asked that he be removed from the team.

I'm sorry to hear that, because they are good about so many things.

You mean Mary Sue Silverman?

Lacking only the violet eyes.

I can't raised one eyebrow or curl my tongue, but I can wiggle my nose and I have a finely honed look of disdain.

I can raise one eyebrow (the left is easier than the right) and curl one side of my upper lip in a disdainful snarl, and roll my tongue. I cannot wiggle my nose, but I can wiggle my ears. I cannot cross my eyes, but I can touch my nose with my tongue, which is probably my main claim to fame.

I can sneer and wink and cross my eyes. Can't do any tongue tricks, sadly. Although I do give a hell of a blow job.

And I actually checked to make sure I was in Bitches before I posted the above.

Roll tongue, check. Snarl lip, check. Blow job, (on good authority) check, check. Cross both eyes at the same time (Don't do that, they'll get stuck that way!), check. No nose or ear-wiggling, for all my attempts to learn.

That is so wrong, but I might be resigned to it if he could be convinced to kill off Susan Silverman.

I'll see what I can do.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. Pshaw! Don't you know we're the creative ones? I occasionally cave to my cravings for a Chik-fil-a sandwich and waffle fries.

Any pregnancy of mine would automatically be considered high risk, so the idea that I am also approaching my mid-thirties, which is also considered high risk for pregnancy sort of freaks me out.

Thank you for the birthday happies!

It's actually been a nice day. Started early and hung out with my stepmom and sister. I found a pair of very sparkly sandals on sale even. Family dinner tonight. Taking a quick internet break now though. The people in the box are My People, yo, and I want to spend some time with them. I am feeling better being 40 today than I was about being on the verge last night.

I can curl my tongue and Wentzface but I can't wink and can barely raise just one brow. I really want to be able to wink.

To be clear- I have nothing against Chick Fil-A. I take issue with the magazine that defined keeping the sabbath holy as a conservative value rather than a Christian one. I'm pretty sure my parents would define themselves as conservatives but if they owned a restaurant it would be open on Sundays.
