Westboro Baptist Church logic:
Gays give us the willies.
We're nuts enough to think God thinks like we do.
Therefor gays give God the willies.
Gays get to walk around like everyone else in America.
We think that's not right.
Therefore God is displeased with America
Bad things happen to people who are defending America, which is evil.
Because the God in our head has the moral sophistication of an especially bratty six-year-old, he is pleased when bad things happen.
Because the rest of the world doesn't see the grandeur of our vision, we must go out and scream our fool heads off to the greater glory of God.
I am incredibly uncomfortable being on the same side as the KKK.
Sometimes the enemy of your enemy is just your enemy.
The Phelps group are energy creatures. Don't try to make sense of it.
ita, did you look at Levis curve id?
Sometimes the enemy of your enemy is just your enemy.
heh. right? it is kind of fun when an enemy hates another enemy. It's like I can take a break.
Situation "let's you and him fight" was invented for.
-Ma to you and your family, Maria. And procedure ma to you, typo.
I took Clio to the vet today because she's been chewing the hair off her feet. I was convinced - CONVINCED!- it was a stress response to Oz being a jerk to her, but no! she's actually sick. She's got an ear infection (she's also been scratching one ear a lot), and her blood result indicate a allergic response to something. So eardrops and antihistamines for now. If it persists, the vet want to look at maybe hormonal causes...thyroid or diabetes.
The high today was supposed to be 93. It was 98. It's 96 right now. Tomorrow's is 95. I'm wondering if we'll break 100.
My ac units have been running top speed all day. It's working, thank god, but pretty sure that this is as good as it gets.
After running around earlier, I took an hourlong nap to diffuse the headache that had developed. I don't think it was the heat (I was barely IN the heat and stayed well hydrated) but the awful air quality.
Picking away at the clutter. It's very cleaning-resistant. Thank God there's a MSCL marathon on Sundance. Angela's mom and dad just got audited, Grateful Dead tickets are in dispute, and Patty just said to Graham, "She
adores
you. And I have dibs on her silent contempt."
No amount of evil clutter can make this a bad afternoon when I'm spending it with the Chases.
But, more than anything, I just want to say how awed I am by how much you care for these girls. I read your post with a tear in my eyes, wishing someone like you had been in my life when I was that age. It is a gift that you care so much, and a testament to the kind of person you are.
Thank you so much, bonny. I have to admit, I'm feeling quite proprietary about these girls. They're MY girls. I love them and while I know I haven't given them my best or my all this year and I could have done better, I have enjoyed every single minute I've spent with them. I keep reminding myself that if they stick with it through high school, which a lot of them have said that they wanted to, I'll get them back in middle school.
But still, they will always be my girls, no matter who their leader is. And L is amazing and fantastic and will give those girls her absolute best and will be an amazing leader. I have no doubt. I'm just as upset about losing her as I am about the girls.
Uh, defending the US? I should be more precise--defending a US that refuses to completely stigmatize and/or punish homosexuality. At least, that's how I read their protest of soldiers' funerals.
But this was in Joplin, not at soldiers funerals.

I know, I know.
