  so i wake up feeling alright, i have to unbraid my hair (which will take well into the night time) and so i come downstairs, turn on the computer and chat and unbraid my hair, thinking, this is a good day.

  low and behold my mother comes down... "sh*****, i need the computer.

  " "ok, mom..." i put an away message on my aim and then when she sits down, "i don't want you talking on that thing, jehovah wouldn't like that.

  Are you allowed to have a walkman. I bring my iPod in so when I want to be left alone I just turn it on and I'm in my own little world. It's great :-)

  My biggest problem at the office is lunch. I try to eat in my car because people bother me if I eat in the office. Even if I'm in the kitchen, people come by with work stuff. "oh, when you're done eating can you..." it pisses me off. Or we have people that see that I'm eating and stand over my shoulders, ask what it is, and then talk about food. I'm like those Carl's Jr commercials "Don't bother me, I'm eating"

  Do you look better or worse

  the other day i was looking at some old photos of my wife as a young witless teen.

  several of the pictures were taking at assemblies and gatherings/weddings.. what amazed me is that she looks better today than she did as a witless teen or early twenties.

  i don't mean just the expression on her face, but also the way she was dressed.

  A million times better. I think it partly has to do with self-confidence. The better you feel about yourself, the better you look to other people.

  Do You Ever Have Dreams About Being A JW?

  by minimus in

  i had one disconcerting dream last night.

  i was in a very large assembly hall and explosions started occuring and rather than wanting to leave everyone stayed and chatted like whatever was happening out there was not going to affect them inside.

  they were all very smug.

  OMG, I had a dream last night. I was visiting my parents and they invited the elder's over. For some reason my friends were with me and we just hid out in my room and drank champagne. But I woke up wondering if they are planning on doing something like that when I visit in April. Better stock up on champagne.

  Not sure if I told this story before, but here's another go:

  I remember I used to do a lot of creative writing back in High School. One time I wrote a story and it involved some kids going to a party that had drinking and a ouija board. I showed it to one of my friends in the hall to read. I was so proud of myself. Well my friend showed another friend and it went out from there. One day after a meeting a MS who was supposedly the "cool one" who was young and would hang out with all the young people pulls me aside and starts counseling me on my writing. "You should only write about things christians would do." I was floored.

  It had such a negative impact. I stopped writing creatively for years. It wasn't until about a year ago when I had to write for school that I fell in love with writing again.

  Moms' Genetics Might Help Produce Gay Sons

  i thought this article was very interesting and seems to indicate that homosexuality is something inherent.. i tend to agree with this, but also believe that people can be introduced to the lifestyle either through curiosity or environment.. http://news.yahoo.com/s/hsn/20060222/hl_hsn/momsgeneticsmighthelpproducegaysons.

  In some cases, it was theorized that the Y was overshadowed by environmental influences.

  If this was the case, how would you explain lesbians.

  I always wonder why truthseeker is always posting stuff about homosexuality on this board. It's always interesting when someone takes more interest in the topic who is not directly effected than someone who is.

  Fred Phelps is like that. Makes me wonder about him. The guy is a total nutcase. His recent sermons say that god is killing soldiers in Iraq because our nation harbors homosexuals. HAHAHA! He probably would be shocked to see how much he and the extremist muslims have in common.

  Genetics can be very interesting. I really don't know where my homosexuality came from. My mother is the only girl out of 12 children. I would assume all of her brothers are hetrosexual (married with kids) but that always isn't conclusive evidence that someone's hetro. I have two brothers, both are hetro.

  As far as environmental factors. We lived in the middle of Connecticut. No gay scene there. The funny thing is that I know of 5 people in my graduating class of 80 that turned out to be gay/lesbian. We had a chemical plant in town so there's a running joke that there was something in the water.
