i'm curious: what rules have you dealt with that were just "too much" -- whether they were "official" (i.e.
in print) or not?.
i think a good, general one is r-rated movies.

after 29 years of bondage.... i'm loving living it up.. and wondering.... when you first left,.
what things did you most look forward to doing.
or, for that matter, what things do u still look forward to?.
sex
reading whatever the hell i wanted to, same with movies, tv and music
choosing my own friends
college
free saturday and sunday mornings, tuesday and thursday nights
drugs
exploring my sexuality
basically i looked forward to being my own person making my own decisions based on what i needed/wanted instead of having to always think of that damn borg first :)

the subject of crime fiction was being discussed on the radio this morning and whether the partrayal of gruesome crimes inspired murders etc... to commit copy-cat crimes.. an interesting point was made that very often, serial killers do have a favourite book - and it's usually the bible ...
RW, sarcasm turns me on

tonight at the beginning of the "hannity & colmbs" program, the topic of the jw who is suing a doctor for administrating a blood transfusion against his will, was debated for about 30 seconds.
both commentators agreed that this is a "tough subject," however each felt that "religious freedom must be protected.
" sean hannity ended by saying that "there would be more about this later.
i saw a blurb about this story on cnn's headline news this afternoon while i was getting my teeth cleaned. the caption read something like "save a life, get sued?"
i have a theory and i'd like to put it to the test here.. i would be willing to bet that the posters who post a great deal probably commented more than the average publisher at the meetings.. i know it's true in my case.. on simon's forum we have the whole range of 'publishers-' from those that comment a lot ---down to those that are just there.
the lurkers.. what about you?.

i hated commenting at the meetings and would do it as little as possible. lucky thing my mom and dad weren't commenters either, they never forced us kids to comment :) all seven of us sitting there without raising our hands hehe. at the bookstudy i'd comment out of sheer boredom sometimes, but usually i just daydreamed. weird thing is at school i always had my hand up. hmmmm
i was just thinking about being single today.
i feel like it is the yin-yang experience.
there is good and bad with the whole experience.
bea, thanks sweetie and i know what you mean about that feeling...i was missing having someone in my life so bad i had almost called my ex to see about getting back together!! but i woke up the next day and realized that wouldn't solve anything. i just keep telling myself, someday it will all fall into place :)

end of may i'll be coming up on my one year of being single. so far i'm enjoying it and i know what not to do in my next adventure in romance hehe. i do miss having that someone special around but am not willing to just be with anyone. i wouldn't say i'm searching for someone but well, always open to the possibility. my problem is i hate dating!! the whole "date" thing just turns me off. i just want to go out and have fun and not worry about who's paying or if i have to or should kiss him goodnight (esp. if i'm not very interested in him.) i also think my town is just too damn small. everyone seems to know someone i know. i'm just dating retarded. my last boyfriend and i started out as buds which turned into something more. and then turned into something bad....
i'm looking for someone who wants to go out and have a good time, talk about real things, likes sex and won't become a possessive jerk or try to change me. also someone who needs their independence since i'm just figuring out how great it is to not be dependant on someone else for my happiness. so anyone know where i can find a guy like this? :)
since i left my ex i've realized a lot about myself, my tendencies with guys and my reactions to things. i am working on myself so i hopefully won't attract psychos, losers and jerks :)
bea, marriage!! you talking crazy talk now ;)
ww, thanks for starting this thread :) good luck with school and life!
