Annoying Things II

[Voodoo Lady]

Wooooooow.

Do your customers know what you're going to be serving them? I'd be super tempted to clue them in. Make it part of a sales pitch. "Step right up and get a bowl full of Britain's finest powdered soup! That's right, no fresh, natural, healthful ingredients here; just good old fashioned dehydrated, tasteless veg and loads and loads of lovely chemicals! What? No takers? =puzzled face=



My gripe of the moment: Bigotry in the name of love (not really sure how that's meant to work). A friend I respect in a lot of ways posted the linked article below on facebook. We don't always see eye to eye when it comes to religious issues, but I tend to be a "let everyone believe what they want as long as they don't hurt others" kind of person, so I let it be. I'm having a hard time with this one, I have to admit.

Wow...just wow. You might as well be telling black people that they're sinning by being black, but it's okay. Being black is a sin, but it's not THE sin, so they might not go to hell for it. Oh, and while you're at it, why don't you apologize for all of the racists of the world who are too small minded to realize that name-calling and violence is the wrong way to go about letting minorities know they're inferior.

Super sad.

BTW, Pastor, sir, way to judge the book by a cover you only *assume* it's wearing. So much for your so-called "loving" god.

The article made me want to cry.
How dare they. How dare they think they can say something like that to anyone

If it was someone I was friends with then I'd call them out on it, and I actually don't think I could be friends with someone who had such hateful views.

Think my friend is wearing a very similar dress to the one I'm wearing to the wedding we're going to! She absolutely loves it but I love mine and don't really want to have to buy a new one. D'oh! We'll be together all the time too. Nevermind hey? Maybe we can stand apart for any photographs.

[Papa's new wife]

an you wear lots of accessories (jewellery, bag, shoes, fascinator etc..) that she won't be?
I haven't been to many weddings but the style of dresses that most people seem to wear are pretty similar so you tend to see people concentrate on the teeny hats/fascinators and jewellery to make them different.

[Beast]

The styles are different thankfully but they are both black lace over cream so there's not much disguising that. Ah, well.

It's so hot that the only night I haver slept even sort of properly was Friday night.
I can't abide hot sticky yuckiness
Today I wanted to sleep in but it is honestly too bloody hot again.

I also got sunburnt on my arms when I was at my Mum's last week and my arms are so bloody itchy it is actually painful.

Sodding spider scared the bejeezus out of me earlier, it was ENORMOUS. Really, really huge.
It was on the wall cos it had snuck in the back door.
I had to take several deep breaths, almost do a bit of wee and then ran to get something to hit it with.
Of course it was too big to go near in case it ate me.
I found a long plank (part of a bookcase?) in the kitchen (my Landlord is a quim (ha) and never tidies up his crap so there is stuff everywhere) and attempted to best the beast.
It jumped off the wall and hid in a curtain, I had to hit the curtain until it came out. Then I tried hitting it again and again it hid. Then it went on the floor and eventually I bested the hideous beast.

I am still shaky and won't sleep tonight.
I was knackered and on my way to the loo for my wee before bed before I got attacked.

I will slay any spider bastard who comes near me and my kind. Or throw them outs the window with the aid of a glass and cardboard. I had flatmates wake me at 2am for spider removal duties. They nasty beasties. Thankfully British ones are harmless.

What a horrid shock for you, kiddo. *soothes*

[Voodoo Lady]

Ugh, how horrid! Glad you were able to get rid of it. Blech.

[astrid]

Yip, with you on the spider hate. Sometimes I am brave and others I go running.

I myself had a massive one in the bath the other day. I was shielding my eyes because I couldn't bear to look at it. I wonder why they seem to be more around now rather than when it was a little warmer. Also why do so many people have arachnophobia? I wonder if it is because due to their nature of getting anywhere it is quite common to be attacked by them when a baby. I have a vague memory of being in my pram and one being in it with me but in many ways I think I may have made that up. Most of my very young memories seem to come from photos so I assume I am just matching photos with imaginary incidents somehow.

My boobs have been so bloody sore these past few weeks
I really don't want to be on long term medication but my periods are getting worse and worse. My PMT lasting longer and longer, I am in pain more and more and get withdrawal problems from the stupidly strong pain killers I have to eat like sweeties. Don't want the Pill but I guess I have to
Plus my chocolate cravings are ridiculous. Just eaten 4 Flakes without even noticing.

(Sorry Paul )

[Son of Tubbs returns!]

This board keeps me in touch with all things female!

[Papa's new wife]

Ha ha
Sorry, tis really getting to me.
I've just eaten more chocolate *burps*

[Voodoo Lady]

Oh wow! I'm so sorry! The pill would definitely help, although it can make your boobs sore, as well. Still, I think it's worth looking into. In the meantime, you might want to buy stock in Cadbury!
