and that was a very nice pic you had up too....I've seen Shour before..and I was shocked for a second by his voice..but after a few minutes I was like ,yeah ok..I get it now. He looks so young..I imagined him sounding more I guess like a teenager..but he was all manly sounding.LOL



He does look young, I totally agree. And thanks for saying the pic is cute. :) I struggle with accepting how I look.
 
Here is a true story. You guys above just brought back a awful memory,lol.

My parents were loving, but weird with food. They would give us kids.....COWS TOUNGE!!!!!!!

Oh ya.....my father would make it a production to boil that sucker, plop it out on the cutting board...make funny faces and eye rolls and make us eat it!!!!! It was so grose. I don't think I need to say anything more...:(

You poor thing. Were they aware that this is America & not some third world country? We do have yummy foods here. lol

bananas are okay, but not the raisins. Raisins are evil.

Not even chocolate covered raisins? What about grapes?

I've got pop country lyrics going through my head. Sigh.

I think I'll be praying for YOU today.lol

haha! I had a crazy french grandmother who gave us cow tongue. Of course, if she had had more money, she would have just been eccentric, not crazy.

I actually like tacos de lengua. I don't know how I would have handled it as a kid though. I suppose that if I had been a Mexican peasant child and it were presented as normal food, I would have accepted it.
 
I wonder where DED is today??? It's so unlike him not to be here. lol I texted him even & nothing back. I hope he's ok.

You mean "chocolate covered evil?" And grapes are great, when juiced and fermented, the way God wanted us to enjoy them.
 
Yes really. I don't believe I'm all that pretty or anything. I struggle with how I look for lots of reasons. If you'd like to know, you can PM me. But I don't want to broadcast in the thread.

Ohhh no,I was just saying...you act very confident,that's all. I know though...sooooo many women deal with looks & self-esteem. Men have really not helped this issue one bit. Sometimes I want to write a big huge apology across the sky telling women I am sorry that men have pushed a lie onto you about how you should look. Granted women have chosen to accept that lie,but when uit is drilled into you from a tiny age that your worth comes from men and how pretty you are...that must be a terrible weight & pressure to feel you have to attain or live up to. :(

LOL...see,I can't drink wine...I might be allergic,though I have no actual proof of this other than after a half glass I get a splitting headache. Now tequila,rum or vodka...no problemo...not even slightly a tinge of badness involved.

I've been told I'm gorgeous and beautiful and all that, but the men that said that to me turn out to be awful men. So my mind says, "Okay, if they lied about pretty much everything, then they must have lied about my looks too." Which may or may not be true, but since I can't separate the lies from the truth regarding them, I have to assume they lied about how attractive I am too.


I'm sure that's unhealthy, but it's how my mind works at the moment.
 
did ya'll ever sleep last night? lol.
Went to bed @ 4:30-ish...lol You?

Totally understandable. I will pray for you concerning this..that you start to see yourself more like Christ does. people can be really sucky at times.
 
OK..Matt........spill the beans...why am I sensing you are all janky feeling today????
 
Okay, I think I went to bed around 2:30 or 3:00. I did get up this morning and do more of that industrial song and then crashed again. lol.
 
Time for...a list post!

1. Raisins. SICK. Evil, yes. Vile. Revolting. Chocolate covered isn't even good. Yogurt covered isn't even good. They're just wrong. WRONG.
2. Mornin' there, DED.
3. I thought it was bad when my mom would make us eat ham and beans...a lot. It was cheap. But cow tongue? I saw one in the store...and gagged just looking at it...yuck, and sorry that ever went down.
4. Aimee...I said this in a PM, but I'll say it here too- just because the men who've told you good things about yourself were liars and maybe didn't mean all the compliments when they said them doesn't make them untrue. You're beautiful, brilliant, and awesome. If they can't see that and respect it...I'll sic the deer on them (well...deer can kill a dog, I dunno how they'd do against a human).
5. I'm so tired of people just assuming that I want to do things for them...I don't mind helping people out, but sometimes it would be nice to be ASKED.
6. It was super cool to finally see Rose's pic...such a pretty smile!
7. ...I don't have a 7. Well, there's a magnetic 7 on the fridge...
