What's everyone up to right now?

Just got an email from my brother - he's getting married.

My mother has already hit him up to have a church wedding. Tim, an atheist (which is apparently my fault despite the fact he lost any interest in religion while serving in Afghanistan), just wants to have a secular wedding somewhere nice - and not in a church.

And I'm bound to get the blame for that, too.

My family: because the Three Stooges can no longer be hired!

It's their day (well, her day). Your parents can show up and have a good day n celebration of that.

My mom said the same thing about my brother's liberalism. I am happy to take the mantle, even though I had nothing to do with it. He lived (on purpose) in the inner city, teaching at shitty schools and trying to affect the communities. He's liberal and has thrown away much of the literal Bible because he has experienced the real world. Nothing to do with me.

My mom can think what she likes and blame me for whatever. I'm strong enough to cast that aside as her reaching for a reason that her upbringing and plan for two out of three of her children failed miserably. We didn't turn out the way she wanted (ironically both of us are awesome dudes) and she needs to have a reason for that other than that her version of reality doesn't line up with actual reality, and we chose not to live in that fantasy world.

I hate weddings. I'm the wedding grinch. Got married once, and that marriage had a slow and tiresome  death. Won't make that mistake again. I'm anti marriage. Marriage=run! 
Did I mention that I hate weddings! I do. I hate them.

But congratsBig Grin

Oh, I'm anti-marriage too.

Don't wanna get married. Don't want kids and want to concentrate on my career.

My mother hates that.

My Dad's good with it, being an atheist himself.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

Listening to KGB in San Diego, which is a Classic Rock station. They just played Nirvana, then STP, then Foreigner.

The fact that Nirvana and STP are in the same genre as Foreigner now makes me feel ollllllllllllllld.

Are you putting it in framed or is it going in an existing frame?

If the frame is there and you are hanging a door inside a pre-existing frame, it's not the door. It's your house.

Looking at survival gear. Might buy myself a new knife to add to my collection.
