I don't know whether to go to services at a new synagogue or sit here on my comfy couch drinking coffee. I've been wanting to join a synagogue and get all active in the Jewish community again... but dude, I'm tired and I want coffee and I need to straighten up the house and go grocery shopping and run by the bank... augh, I'm too sleepy right now to make this decision. Somebody tell me whether I should go be a good religious girl or a Saturday morning slacker.

I'm.......gonna pass on being anybody's moral compass. ;D
Wooooo double sexed already this weekend, delicious breakfast courtesy of me, and Natural Bridge Caverns this afternoon! This is the good life.
Since nobody's answered my Q in Body Business, does anyone know if there is any problem with me having my first laser hair removal session while I'm on my period? They're gonna be zapping my kitty and I wanna know if I should reschedule or if I'll just deal with the embarrassment of tampon string and the increased sensitivity to pain....
Also, Stella, I very much hope you're feeling better today. I'm gonna call you later; feel free to tell me to fuck off if you don't wanna talk about it, my feelings shan't be hurt.

^Wooooo I won't even get my eyebrows waxed on my period....I'd def reschedule but maybe that's just me.
You should see the front page of the ABQ Journal this morning---a 38 pound cat!! So sad and yet so squishy.

For FUCK SAKES. My homecare nurse pointed out that I have a YEAST INFECTION in my caesarean incision. And here I was thinking that it itched because it was healing. I'm so pissed off.

To go to synagogue I would have to leave in 10 minutes and I'm not dressed yet. Fuck it, I'll go next week, I promise. Really. I will. Right now I want to get up and make some coffee but my stupid cat is curled up so contentedly against my arm that I have to keep sitting here. *sigh*

Just pray to yourself at home today. God doesn't care where you talk to him. The synagogue is more for a sense of belonging and social purposes(same as church).

^^^ Well yeah, and that's why I wanted to go, LOL! But fuck it. I'm going to clean my house in a minute and then go shopping and hit the spa, maybe kick back and do some knitting tonight. That sounds more pleasant.
I'll go be Jewish next week. ;)

Oh, BTW, I want credit for this. I have a plan that involves putting $250 a week into the savings account, adding up to $1000 a month. This being the end of the first week, I tallied up my finances and moved the $250 into our savings account (which is really difficult to take money out of for impulse spending). I wanted to get my hair done and get a mani-pedi, and go out for a nice extravagant meal, but I put it in savings instead. I was a good girl! Go me! :angel:

This morning I was shuffling around in my dark apartment, curtains drawn, in my underwear, waking up after a late night drinking. I can tell it's sunny outside but I'm not quite ready to let it in yet.
My doorbell rings.
I run to get my bathrobe. No one knocks on my door, ever, normally. I figure it has to be important. But while I'm running around trying to cover up for this emergency that has someone at my door, they knock again. Must be urgent.
I glance through the peephole at the same time I'm pulling the door open, but all I get is a flash of dark hair and white blouse.
Standing at my door are two young, pretty, Asian girls, in crisp white blouses and pressed knee-length skirts. Are they going to try to convert me?
I smile nervously and slightly hide behind my door, aware of my hairy naked white legs, even though everything unseemly is covered up, for some reason.
The first girl leans back upon first seeing me, and after the awkward moment, she says, "Oh, we're sorry! We were looking for Korean people!"
My last name is Moon. They must have gotten my name and address from some ethnically-sorted list. I get junk mail in Korean all the time. My nickname in high school (one of them) was "The Reverend". But my ancestors came from England and Wales, at least on my dad's side.
"It's actually an English name," I say, my voice crackly with sleep.
They're backing away, nodding, shaking their head. "Oh, is it?" the first girl says, and then they're gone.
Looks like I don't get to cross that item off my list of things to do before I die. Not today.

What boys do, around the age of eight or nine, is pull their package back between their legs, and then close their legs tightly -- trying to imagine what they look like as a girl. I was the asshole who told them girls don't look like that -- it's not the absence of a penis, is the presence of a vagina -- but since none of them had ever seen a vagina, nobody believed me.
Just for the record, if a guy does it right - he can make it look like there's a slit, and it really can look like there's vagina. A male stripper showed me once. That was a weird night - I thought he was gay and he thought I was straight - everyone was disappointed.
It's snowing, and for some reason that make me feel a little less cranky about being a shut-in sickie. I'm wearing my housemate's selk'bag http://www.lippiselkbag.co.uk (it's like a sleepingbag astronaut suit), because I'm freezing, and it's too big so I kind of shuffle around - the cats are petrified with terror.

It's such a beautiful day outside. OMG. I haven't seen a day this beautiful since we got to Portland. It's perfect! Long sleeves but no jacket, sunny but not too bright... I went to Trader Joe's and Limbo with the windows down and sang all the way there. I bought a ton of yummy healthy foods, I'm on my way to the spa, and afterward I think I shall come back here and make some veggie-lentil soup.
I'm so fucking content right now I could die.

I hate the weekends. It seems like you work all night Friday, stay up til sunrise, sleep, wake up around 3 or 4, then you have to get ready right away and go right back to work. It's almost as if you never left!

Caverns are nifty! I saw rock formations that looked like yeasty bread, shark fins, alligator heads, the spiky descending ceiling from Indiana Jones, and a perfect vagina. Not to mention all the droolable huge stone phalluses. *sneaks away from the group...humphumphump* It was sooooo neat. I'm definitely bringing my family there next time they're in state.
Ate the nummiest fried rice. Enough leftovers for two more meals. Yay!

Can i just say for the umptenth time that i fucking love this thread. Not only does it give me a safe mostly non judgmental place to share my thoughts, feelings, activities, aches and pains and everything else, it appeals strongly to my voyeuristic side to just know what everyone else is doing, eating, thinking, reading, watching, humping ect. WOW that was a run on sentence and i'm not going to fix it because it is the random thread and anything goes!
My on going Wedding Thank You card saga is almost over, that was a nightmare for me. I am just not organized enough to get it all together and remember everything. I'm glad i don't believe in divorce and will never have to get married again.
Every time i eat i get so full i feel sick. I like can't stop myself from finishing the food on my plate way after i'm already full. Its like a sickness
Rant of the day-
Why does everyone feel the need to tell a very pregnant woman their oregnancy/delivery/new baby horror stories? Like do they have any idea how mean that is? I swear to god everyone has some sort of scarey story saved up that they are just waiting to unleash on some poor unexpecting pregnant woman. All the delivery horrors and sick newborns and bleeding cracked nipples, enough is enough all ready!
/end rant
I'm feeling very restless and bored and a little sad for no reason.
I'm the type of person that has always craved excitement and likes newness. I used to move a lot, jump apartments and states and jobs just to always keep things fresh. I knew having a baby and getting married was going to make living like that impossible, but i think the reality of it is really setting in. This new life is so safe and stressless and beautiful... but my old life was more...hmmmm.. exciting and scary and spontaneous. I used to always feel like i was just surviving, doing what ever i had to, to keep going. Now i feel like i'm finally living but sometimes it feels like someone elses life.

Well, since all penises started out as vaginas, that makes perfect sense to me.
