1. Today I went to a neighbors house and brought her a large sack of
pecans for her fruit cakes. She was happy to get the pecans.

4. That was so nice to give someone a star, and give food.
I know someone who works at the foodbank here, there are so many hungry people in America.

5. I refrained from grabbing my boss's nose in a viselike grip
while also refraining from telling him to "Fuck off and get outta my grill". That's two, right? Did I do good?

13. If you look, her eyes would have described the 20's
aesthetic canon perfectly for "beauty" and "glamor". She has roaring 20's eyes, the eyes of a flapper. Beyond them, by a pale 1/8 inch, there's nothing but garbage. And her expression is the opposite of Free-Spirited Flapper, obviously.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :loveya:

14. Definitely nothing behind her eyes but garbage
That's because that is all that's in her head--pure fundie nonsense and hatred. It's sad really.

18. There really are people like that
Margaret Perrin is a real person, and there are others like her. They think the Bible is an instruction manual and that anything their Church says is law. If they come across anything that contradicts the "teachings" of either they short-circuit and/or go on the warpath. They honestly believe they are on a mission from God to set the world straight. :scared:

24. In that vein....
I punched the hood of a minivan that almost hit me instead of attempting to punch the driver.

Like, oh my God! We're downtown where there are like thousands of pedestrians! Isn't like so totally awesome that we like didn't bother to scrape more than 8 square inches of ice of our windows! It's like totally awesome not to be able to see anything! Oh my god! Like, I hope we like don't hit anybody!

11. I bought an "igloo" for the ferel cats who I support, and placed it...
...outside their feeding area. It's going to get cold soon, so I felt thay needed something to combat it. It was the least I could do.

23. 2 animal related ones in the last hour.
We took on two cases:

One woman who's facing code enforcement issues over her 5 acres and her budding animal rescue; and,

A gentleman who's being forced to give up his pitbull by his apartment complex.
