Story I told in IRC.


Krisken> We've been watching Northern Expose and just saw one where Maggie's house got burnt down

<Krisken>She is asleep and suddenly says "Maybe she shouldn't have burned down his house"

<Krisken>I said "Who burned down a house?"

<Krisken>"Maggie did."

<Krisken>"Whose house did she burn down?"

<Krisken>"The main guy."

<Krisken>Me "Joel?"

<Krisken>"Yeah"

<Krisken>"Why did she burn down his house?"

<Krisken>"Her dreams told her to."

<Krisken>I can only imagine she's enjoying the show if she is inventing new episodes in her head
 
That's what I keep telling myself. I have everything in place to be ridiculously happy. There's no reason why I should question any of it, and I hate that I do even in the slightest.

Irregardless, I'm going to move forward from this and let time push away those doubts as I spend more and more of my life with her.
Ever considered that you subconsciously like the drama? Like a drug, it hurts you, but you gotta have it?
 
"We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

I honestly still wrestle with it, but I have completely cut off contact with the ex. I know it'll get smoother with time, I am still very VERY happy with my current relationship and wouldn't trade it for anything.

As for the question, I hate drama. I hate ever minute of it and crave content and understandable life.

Been back home for 4 hours and I already hate it. Someone hire me so I can move out of here, please. There are a lot of things up in the air, teaching and non-teaching, including an after-care job at that Catholic school where I applied if they can't offer me a teaching position. So far nothing's come of my prospects. Tired of being a burden on my parents and tired of them, too.
 
If I ever have kids I'm going to show them only the first 10 minutes of UP and insist that it's a short film about not putting off tomorrow that which you can do today. Hopefully when they're like 25 they'll finally see the whole thing and have their mind blown.


Also, I have to wear jeans for work but since it's hard to find my sizes my work pants are a bit too long. I could just cut the extra inch or so off but then I'd be wearing really long cut-offs.
 
My Dad asked me this weekend, "What pan do I cook my meatloaf in?"

He's used the same damn cast iron skillet at least once a month for 30 years to cook meat loaf.

It is hard to watch your Dad slowly losing it...

As long as the meatloaf doesn't become Cat/Dogloaf, I think it'll be ok for now....

All joking aside, I know EXACTLY what you mean. My mother has been going down that path for about 2-3 years now. She'll completely forget really important things (like my sister having a baby) and constantly repeat to me the same conversational piece every time I call her (2-3x a week).
 
What the fuck? They set a trap for the police? Is that common?
No. Not for Savannah in general, and definitely not for my area in particular. What was not told in that particular news release is that both cars had JUST been stolen - that was why the first one was being pulled over, because the officer had observed the two of them being together. Apparently the driver of the stopped car had ties to the shooter in some way.

Most amazing part, apart from the fact that the officer was completely unhurt, even though this prick was chasing him down the street whilst shooting was that this asshole only got scuffed up when he wreck whilst trying to run.

In situations like this, our department's "no chase" policy bites us in the butt. The dirties think that we're not allowed to do ANYTHING, so they get cocky. Now, we can pursue in the event of a forcible felony... and if there's assault on an officer, then we'll chase until the wheels come off. *evil grin*

I wonder how the immortals in the Highlander universe would deal with the new airport security protocols. Hard to get swords past those guys.

Duncan MacLeod can be wearing naught but a bath towel, and still manage to pull out his katana. Wherever he stores it, I think he can get it past airline security. (Especially considering Adam Savage got 12" long razor blades past on accident.)
