Either I’m too sensitive or else I’m getting soft – B Dylan

Monday, November 29th, 2010

Yesterday something that happened at the budget meeting after church horrified and disgusted me.  I exercised my democratic franchise and voted – alone of the congregation – against it. A church is bigger than its minister.  After all the f-cking scandals – and guh knows Unitardians have theirs – this is the lesson.  The people [...]

I have to leave the house at quarter to seven to buy stuff for church today.  I forgot to do it yesterday.  I forgot to do anything except some transcription, some laundry and some cooking.  Still no snow tires, yes I am lazy. It was good to see Keith.

Generally, people who work in slaughterhouses don’t become vegetarian.  So, PETA, making comments about how people would become vegetarians if they really knew what goes on in slaughterhouses will not fly.

I appear to have made an ass of myself

To preserve Katie’s dignity and privacy I’ll say little about her disappearance, but it ain’t been swell for her and she has resurfaced at the home of a friend.  This is what touched my heart while she was gone…..

It’s steampunk, it’s a repeater.  Hopefully he’ll forgive me that it’s French. Still no sign of Katie.  I’ll be talking to Paul, who’s off today, to go to where I think she is prior to calling the cops.

Katie hasn’t shown up for work for two weeks now…. True, she had a week off, but they would like to know if she’s still planning on working there.   So I’ve left messages, and wailed on facebook, and texted her, and left more messages, and it matters not, because she’ll call when she’s good and [...]

There’s four inches on the ground and it’s still snowing like a pillowfight.   Going home is gonna be INNARESTING.  Note to self, really must get new fracking snow tires.

Snowing and assfreezing cold

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010

Work is, like, amazing.  I feel like I’m looking at the stars, and they’re just the little lights you get when you’ve hit a wall abrumptly (deliberate typo).  Yet everyone is so nice, and I feel so fortunate. Katie is refusing to answer the phone or talk to me except a terse ‘alive’ on facebook. [...]

It is freezing in this house… but that’s because it’s freezing everywhere. I think Katie quit her job but is too scared to tell me. I will know more later.

If my parents had really loved me….
