All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm trying to work something out regarding my facebook friends from high school. Compared to the friends I made as an adult, this list seems full of...I can't put it in any other term but Jesus Freaks. Seriously--daily devotions, praises to Jesus, thankful for Jesus and God-will-provide-or-at-least-has-a-plan kinds of posts. These are people who partied their way through high school. Drinking, drugs, sex and the usual teenage high jinx. None of them seemed overtly religious in school.

There is a lot of that with my high school friends, too. And with a few it's kind of obviously all talk no walk.

Brenda! Congrats!

I have successfully deposited a check by taking a picture of it with my phone

I can do that, but I haven't tried it yet. I'm still getting over the idea that I can lock/unlock my car with my phone.

"Ancient Mayan Secrets for Reclaiming the Modern Feminine"

Being sacrificed in a sacred well?

Grinding corn?

Trying to make your children have flat heads and crossed eyes?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have to confess that I googled Mayan virgin sacrifice and found that apparently the thinking is that they actually sacrificed boys and some men. So maybe THAT's the secret!

Maybe they'll be teaching the Mayan art of piercing things with thorns. Or was that the Incas?

ION, I found a place that has bayberry candles! One good thing about the holidays, old-fashioned smelling candles make an appearance, as opposed to fake-fruity smelling stuff.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, you will all not be surprised to learn that there is a lot of empty Jesusing on my friendslist. But there's a reasonable amount of peaceful overthrow of the state anarchism, too, so I figure it all balances out. The juxtaposition is pretty funny sometimes, though.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My god, my husband is throwing away paper. It's a miracle.

Then you get me in the middle posting things like "I made pot pie! Here's a picture of it!"

I'm like the Ralph Wiggum of Facebook.

Or from me: "CAT X DID THIS." "Here's my current house project!"

Man, my ear finally cleared so my hearing is normal, but the amount of snot coming out of my head is truly epic. The human body amazes and disgusts me with the ability to produce snot.

And my nose is now chapped.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I love my neti pot.

I'd need a hose. My problem is production rate, not getting it out. I have something similar (squeezy thing) but ....I need a hose.
