I love my bus commute. I mean, okay, I'd rather walk (in good weather), because sometimes the bus makes me carsick and sometimes the high school kids get too loud. But as commutes, it's not bad: only half an hour, and I can listen to my audiobook or podcasts and just zone out. I'm worried that when we move our office it will be to a place not near a good bus line for me.
Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
The transit reminded me- the woman who thinks I smell bad (and is conservative and somewhat bigoted) said the most surprising thing yesterday morning.
She started talking about having an argument with a fellow Christian tat weekend about gay people, and I though "here we go!", and she started going off about how you couldn't call yourself a follower of Jesus without being upset about how people have marginalized gay people, and that the only things that Jesus taught were about love and acceptance, and that he had nothng to say about it at all.
You could have knocked me over with a feather. She says that she personally doesn't understand it, but it is not hurting people, they aren't hurting people, and if they want to make families and be married she is all for marriage. She even understood that churches wouldn't be forced to marry people they didn't want.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My commute really is ideal -- 1 mile walk, 15 minutes in the van. I took a cab on Monday, and missed the walking.

People are endlessly fascinating, aren't they?

The status is NOT quo.
I'm in urgent care at the moment, TB. I could at least get up and shower this morning, but the mid-section is pretty painful still. I came in because I think muscle relaxers are the only thing that's going to prevent another night of pain.
But really, it could be worse. I'm okay. Thanks for asking.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
oh peoples, I hate people having rough days.
but still I am going to whine. I am starting in on hour 5! of working on 2 applications for Federal jobs. The deadline is midnight tonight and I will get them done, but at the moment I am taking a short break because I CANNOT STOP CRYING. Yes, Federal Government, you win, your application process has completely broken me. Congratulations, you can wear down the un and under-employed.

PS I get that people lie and they have to make absolutely sure that I'm not pregnant, but OMG seriously! I'm not pregnant! ND has either been gone or on opposite shifts most of the past three months AND I'm on the Pill AND I'm infertile. Really and for sure, NOT PREGNANT.
