Post your random thoughts/feelings etc

I care~ Decorating and organization is my life next to pizza and lame puns. ::p:

Neat.

hehe. I had no idea. Do you get as excited as I do when you move furniture around in a room? To me, it's like a whole new space. Almost as exciting as moving in to a new place :p

@dottie I LOVE banana bread :D ESPECIALLY a warm piece with butter on it. It's the ultimate comfort food.
 
I wish I didn't get embarrassed on behalf of others, even when they're clearly not embarrassed.... My husband's grandmother visited for a short while today, and he was showing her some songs we like on the computer... She was singing along (we showed her lyric videos) and dancing, obviously enjoying it and not in the least bit embarrassed... I enjoyed watching her being happy, but at the same time felt extraordinarily embarrassed... I think because I am naturally empathetic, I easily slip into another's place, except I imagine my own feelings as well... The idea of singing and dancing in front of anyone is just horror, the embarrassment I would feel would be off the scale.

I am the exact same way. If I see someone embarrassed I feel terrible for them - as if I were (or is it "was"? - damn subjunctive. ahem.) the one embarrassed. But even if they're not showing any signs of embarrassment, I feel awkward.
 
FINALLY got the house decorated for Christmas, with less than 10 days to go til the holiday. Yeah I know, I'm a bit late. :rolleyes:

But better late than never, right?

Our house isn't decorated yet, at all. We don't even have a tree yet :/

It's cold in my house and rainy outside. That tends to put me in a better mood... however adding loneliness to the mix takes all the joy out of the weather that I prefer. :thumbdown:
 
I had to call for customer support because our router was being a bit of a ditz. Was on the phone for over 3 hours trying to get everything working. Actually had to recall because the laptop I was using to reset the router setting died on me.

God, I feel for the people that work these jobs and end up with people screaming at them. The woman that helped me out was very nice and did a wonderful job working me through it. After it was all done, she said "bye bye" in a cutesy kinda voice. I think I may have made her day a bit better. Dingoguy! AWAY!

Oh yes, I do. It's not so much the moving and freshness as much as the new set up being more efficient. I have a small room, which is absolutely cramped with things.

But it doesn't look crowded, and everything functions as it should. Tweaking and pondering about how to make it even better, and succeeding at that makes me quite happy.

It's like a compressed living room.
 
Ironically, this will probably give that excuse of a group more exposure. :eek:mg:

It is clearly a hate group, though, and I hope it gets disbanded (although they'll probably still exist in some form).

Yeah, that's true. But the thing about these people is that ignoring them won't reduce the awful things they do. Their propaganda is extremely dangerous to people they target. A insecure homosexual or lesbian for example might start hating him/herself to lethal consequence because of the things they say.

And that's without acknowledging what happens to the members of the group itself. That inside story of what happened to the children of the leader of that cult is particularly tragic. They've been abused physically and mentally to the result of brainwashing. And of course, the kids that are currently being brainwashed and put in harms way.

Anything that limits their range of influence would be a benefit to everyone.

You're totally right. Hopefully something is done to stop their influence.

Biking to work this morning resulted in a rather strange experience. Where I'd normally expect to see grass and meadows, I saw ducks, swimming in the reflections of the street lights and the early pale blue morning sky, exploring curiously new feeding grounds. The trees stood nearly twice as tall than they used to, with their black silhouettes gently rippling beneath, and here and there the tips of single grass leaves broke through the waters surface, seemingly turning the landscape into marshlands.

People biked and jogged past me, as I stopped to make a photo. As always, when I stop all of a sudden amidst a fast biking trip, the world around me seemed to turn silent, as the hormones my body had released were pulsing through my blood stream. I wondered how many millions and billions of decisions in my life brought me here at exactly this place at this time.

But time did not stop, so I hopped back onto my bike to get to work.

Not sure if this is real or not, but you should totally write a book or something because you have some unique writing skills. :thumbup:
 
I wonder if I turned into a ghost recently without realizing it. I don´t seem to matter to anyone to just even shortly reply if I ask something. At most I get noticed when I say something "wrong". Guess I should become a hypocrite to be more likeable and worthy dealing with.

Nah uh, don't sacrifice your standards for popularity. The fact you stand your ground is what makes me respect you.
