my wife has been struggling with her weight since the birth of our children.
she's done every fad diet and always gives up.
now she's turned to phentermine, a controlled substance for weight loss.
Phentermine is a sympathomimetic amine, which is similar to an amphetamine. like amphetamine, it's addictive and harmful...but, hey! it's an upper!! wooo hooo
if she's having trouble sleeping she may need to tell her doctor to adjust her dose...or take it early in the day. if she decides to stop taking it all together...let me know, i'll email you my address for the left-overs.
i've emailed laura for extra xanax as well.
things like jesus going for a pee, someone splitting thier hose, cutting their finger, are never mentioned in the bible.. one argument is that these things were so commonplace that nobody even thought to mention them.. since there is a rant in the jewish law about men not being allowed to dress as a woman, one would think there might be one recorded instance.
after all they did a tale about the egyptian gathering wood on the sabbath.. does this mean that cross dressing was so common in bible times it didn't even rate a mention in the book?.
was moses a drag queen?
i was really trying to sneak in here...but, it's only right to say "hi" and make a brief introduction.
glad to be here.
i just want to say that i apologize in advance for anything i might say from here on out.
awww you guys are making me blush ~
whipped cream and jello shots for everyone!
just not this guy ------>
i used to try and avoid running into jw's after i was first d/f, but the past few years i have taken a different spin on it.
at my old job as a cashier if i was the only cash open then they had no choice but to have me wait on them.
the apprehension on their faces as they approaached was hysterical.
Anyway I think it is very good not to shun yourself if you are df-ed. -DannyBloem
me too danny. i hate it when i ignore myself.
i have been thinking about this because of another post where the question asks have any of us ever been blackmailed to stay in the watchtower organization.. no, i won't say i was blackmailed; however, after i wrote my note of disassociation, the congregation overseer wanted to visit me in my home with two other elders.
i repeatedly said no, that i would not allow them to chastise me in my own home.
therefore, all of my conversations were over the phone with the overseer.
he told me I was condemned to death with absolutely no hope of resurrection. -grace
how appropriate that you chose "grace" as your name.
i'm not religious and it's been a while since i quoted any form of scripture. but, when an elder told me (after i became inactive) that i didn't have to pray anymore...jehovah had written me off already. i read him a scripture from the reasoning book. "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2:8-9 somehow, the witnesses have scribbled out the word "grace" and replaced it with other stuff that's easier to explain away.
it's funny too that the elder didn't even let you have a ressurrection! lol so where does jesus fit in??? didn't he "conquer" death and sin for mankind or not? (Rom. 6:9,10) Romans 6:23 says - "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
oh well, silly questions! i think his self righteous condemnation of you was just a last ditch effort to try to do his job. he's supposed to keep you IN and you got free anyway. pay him no mind. someday, if the universe lines up just right he'll step on a cactus or something.

there was this one apostle. the bible doesn't mention him much. he was kind of a drag.
i went to meeting last night (don't ask) and someone asked me to go out in service.
i was taken by surprise and actually agreed to do street work on saturday.
the sister that i'm supposed to work with has always been very kind to me and i know that there is no one else in our hall that will go out with her on saturday morning.
hi lola,
i feel for you. when i was an active witness...i always said "yes" before i thought about what i was being asked to do.
one thing i would never do...and everyone knew this is take the first door. i just couldn't, i had to get it together and could do the next one. some days, if i wasn't really into service...i would ask the sister if she would mind taking the next door as well. if i was lucky she wouldn't mind and we'd get lots of not-at-homes or i'd have her take most of the doors.
street witnessing isn't so bad. if you really don't want to get out of it then see how much you can get away with. don't talk to anyone if you can help it. if you do talk to someone just ask them how they're doing...comment on the weather or the landscaping, something very neutral and then wish them a great day. leave as many magazines in one place as you can. 10 on this washer, 10 on that dryer. you'll be out of literature in no time! then complain that you're real hungry and need to take a coffee break or really have to use the ladies room. sprinkle the morning with comments on how bad your menstrual cramps are today and how heavy your "flow" is. that will give you an excuse to go home early.
or...if all else fails...call up another sister in the hall that you think may be easily persuaded and tell her that you agreed to go in service with this sister but something came up. ask this sister you call if she could please, please take your place. if she says yes, call the first sister and tell her you just can't make it...but, another sister can.
if you want to fade right just start complaining to everyone that you don't feel well. you're tired and just don't have any energry. everyone will be happy to offer you advice or tell you how bad they feel. they won't question you missing so many meetings if they make up their mind you have something wrong with you.
i dunno, just my 2 cents.
ladies,.
in preperation for a class i'll be taking starting next month entitled "history of love, sex and marriage" i would like to probe your heart's desire to find out the 5 biggest turn on's and 5 biggest turn off's you find in men.
and well, hell, i also would just like to add to my general knowledge.
BTW...erm...I'm kinda surprised none of you ladies mentioned "good weenie" in the top 5, even after 5 pages.....something amiss...- Preston

In the Netherlands such facial hair is crudely termed a 'kut gezicht', or a 'c*nt face'. -Abaddon
you naughty, naughty boy. bend over and take your punishment. that asterisk is far too sheer to disguise that word. i suppose then, a man with a clean shaven face could be crudely termed a "c*ck face"
what do you have to say to all the jws who under the direction of the governing body are lurking and spying on this forum and then give the gathered intel to their masters?

i'd tell them to look for the wireless mics and hidden cams under their computer desks.
there is a rather large, luxurious (clothing optional) "viewing room" that the governing body has set up for their carnal viewing pleasure. in this room are dozens of live feeds from around bethel. hidden cams are placed in strategic places around the watchtower facility (ie in showers, the lamp next to your bed, under study desks and cafeteria tables, kingdom hall podiums) these hidden cams and wireless mics were the brainchild of Leo Greenlees (gawd rest his soul) and Percy Chapman (who had a hankering for young, buff, handsome "percy boys"). the "viewing room" built in the 1950s underwent an extensive renovation in 1969 (an appropriate year) when sixty homosexuals left the world headquarters.
of course now, since 1986, the watchtower, after investing in high tech war technology, has used nothing but the most up to date electronic devices. these motion sensitive web cams are now fed at 45-second intervals to a worldwide audience (for a small donation to the world-wide work of $2.99 a minute of course).
these live bethel web feeds threatened to make the "viewing room" obsolete...so true to nature, the watchtower has kept up with the times. thanks to the generous donations of witnesses around the world, the viewing room has been updated to accommodate 12 private "viewing booths" each equipped with a Dell Inspiron XPS (Extreme Edition) hands free laptop computer with privacy screen.
since the "viewing room" is considered the greater "most holy" room only to be entered by the latter day "high priests" for atonement... we of the earthly class can only imagine how much of jehovah's spirit permeates that room. even though this spiritual paradise is invisible to us... we can always look back on the time when the "viewing room" first opened. it was a primitive slide screen/ picture only set up...butt, it was standing room only.
