What's everyone up to right now?
RE: What's everyone up to right now?
I just hung up on my mother.

This is crazy because just last night I dreamed she tried to bully me into conformity and I walked away from her. On the phone with her just now I hadn’t even remembered the dream.

We has been getting along for a while since we had other things to talk about besides religion. I let her read my interview, forgetting that I had described my characters as atheists because they refuse to do what I tell them to do. She was upset about that until I showed her it was just a metaphor. Then she demanded to know if I believe in god.

This wasn’t an honest question because she knows my status. In the past whenever I’ve tried to be honest with her about my beliefs it always turns into an argument. She’s a thought cop like the inquisitor.

I love my mother but I’m sick of the mind games and the way she tries to bully me. She hasn’t been able to do it in decades, butt she still tries, accusing me of being angry when I don’t capitulate. Years ago I told her I’m not angry yet, but I will be if yo keep bothering me.

I don’t feel bad about hanging up on her. I just hope she won’t use this as an excuse for not paying the $1800 she borrowed from me.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

Jk! Sorry that happened. My dad and I used to have these types of issues, but a few years ago, we made up, and it's been much better, now. But, I can relate to mind games. Sending you hugs Rhonda Heart

Started in on a wood carving of my family coat of arms. I'm probably about 1% done, after several hours. At least I'm cutting the wood that shouldn't be there off, finally. Lots of gluing wood together, to begin with. I ended up making it half scale. I didn't want it to be full size- that would be 40 inches wide, and I don't have any place to put something that big.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Hanging out in Williston, ND. Why? Because that's where the oil is. Or, more precisely, the client sites I have to visit.

Thinking about what to wear tomorrow. A dress. Pants and a top. Heels or flats. It's exhausting.

I wear heels a lot, but they're comfortable. Like high wedges, really. Not spiky heels. I hate those. 

Flats sound like a nice change.
