At Long Last

I just realized that it's been almost two weeks since I've posted...I know you missed me...but there hasn't been much to write about...of course, this might be because I don't check my email everyday now...so I don't have forwards to comment on...

Like the one I am looking at now...pictures of men who have several...interesting...piercings. That is putting it mildly. Several ear piercings..nose piercings...eyebrows...noses {sides and middle}...upper lips...lower lips {?}...the front of the neck {with 'shoe lacings'}...spikes out of the foreheads...fingers.

The email is picking on these men, poking fun at how they're unemployable. While I do not support these wild piercings...my heart breaks for the men...I don't know how else to say this...and it has little to do with their piercings, honest...but I can see the LOSTNESS in their eyes. "Please..somebody save me...help me..." - that is what I see in most of their eyes. I wonder if they're aware of it. And what do us Christians do...who are supposed to have all the answers? Perpetuate the problem!!! I have half a notion to "reply to all" with a comment about their lostness, but after looking at who else it was sent to...I have decided not to...I would no doubt get in trouble with Pastor...I'm there enough as it is. I shouldn't worry about that...but I do...

In other news...Jerry has decided to play with our schedules...giving us "official" days off. Meaning that barring special events, such as my sister's college graduation, we will have the same days off each week, up until the end of July when he'll play with it again. The days he gave me were the same ones I've had off for the last month...Wednesday and Thursday...not only will I get to keep on going to Wednesday night church group, but I'll also get to keep on watching CSI {I am SO bad!}.

I have to go now. PS, Cliff, I answered your questions down below...

:D

Some piercings are weird to say the least.

I have no piercings yet I feel lost too. Hmmm. Might be alzheimers...

Jean-Luc: At least they didn't show any of the "below the belt" piercings!!

Utnezi: LOL!!! Just make sure you're not out after sundown, it gets worse after then.

Types of Friends

The other night, the friend that I watch tv and movies with was sharing something she had learned from a MOPS meeting. About the two different types of friends. Since that discussion, I've realized that there are at least 2 more types of friends and goofball that I am, I thought I'd share it all with you! Don't you feel lucky and special? :) 1. Mushroom Friends : These friends spring up over night and are in our lives just for a season. Kind of like the friends I made in school. The season is way over as I didn't even get Christmas cards from them this year [yes, I sent them cards]. 2. Oak Tree Friends : These friendships develop slowly, starting out small and laying down deep root systems. They last forever no matter how far apart the friends grow; time, distance, oceans and death cannot break the bond of friendship. They are the kind that years after being out of communication, if they heard you were in trouble {death in family, illness, etc...} they would drop stuff

A Situation

Ok. I need to think out loud here for a bit while I wait on email. I have a situation going on that could become tough. A bit of background: About 2 years ago, a single man started coming to my church and showed an interest in me. It lasted about a month and a half, with him giving me mixed signals all the time...since I have been praying for a husband for a while now, at the time, it seemed like my prayers were being answered despite the confusion. It all came down one night about midnight in his parking lot and I haven't talked to him since. He only stayed around for another 7-8 months, and those were very hard months. He lied to me and mislead me, often. Like it was second nature for him. It was made even more traumatic by a discovery of mine on a website shortly after he left the area. In September 2005, I had a blind date that was far from fruitful. My singleness and desire to be married is known to all in church, and so... To the present: Yes, another single man has walked in

My Happy Face

There is something wrong in this world when they steal the magnetic smiley face off the back of your car. Which someone has done. But, I only rolled my eyes heavenward and said, "Whatever!" Must be the neighborhood kids were bored or something.
