So feeling the opposite of good. Why do I live in Michigan, again? Cause I can't help but think that if I lived somewhere that wasn't so damn cold I'd feel better. Oh yeah, that's right, cause I'm a friggin' masochist and actually like it here. Ugh.

In honor of baylorsr reading Twilight I think I'm finally going to sit down and type up my whole post about

Why are you going ON and ON about thoughtful issues when the real topic clearly is, baylorsr is reading Twilight!!!

edit: It was very informative though. I'm always interested in reading up on the other flavors. My cousin-in-law is a committed Bible Student and I've always found it breathtaking to see how much Scripture she knows. Of course I shouldn't put you and she in the same room because of the feud between J-Dubs and MMs.

No, baylorsr read Twilight. Just the first book. One of her cousins (one whose opinion Our Baylor trusts) read it and recommended it so Baylor decided to give it a try. Her reaction was pretty much "Edward should eat Bella and then Buffy should stake Edward. The End."

MMs, I like that, it makes me feel like candy (rather than Morons, which is rather less tasty). =D And I'd love to talk Bble with your cousin-in-law since I'm not really into any of that feuding that might exist.

Would that be Julie Beck's awful talk, "Mothers Who Know"? That woman officially lost all of my respect when I heard that talk. And I'm pretty certain that I'll always and forever look at the RS and YW programs with indulgent contempt. I just can't bring myself to see the need for either of them

Yeah, I think that was the talk. All I remember about it now is reading it at some point before that lesson and thinking 'Oh no you DIDN'T!' in response. That was one sister who did not know how to get her point across and was so not aware of all of the cute little Utah euphemisms she had everything couched in. *rolls eyes

That, and a facebook meme was floating around "Twenty Random Facts About Me", and I was tagged by half my ward. I admitted to not liking babies (they scare me, I like toddlers and above), and one of the girls flipped and asked how I could call myself a woman. I don't get what my being a woman has anything to do with it.

My parents came up to Utah for the conference at which that talk was given. I opted to stay home and sleep through the Sunday morning session, and when they got back to my apartment, mom was all, "Thank you for not coming. Please don't listen to Julie Beck's talk, you'll freak out completely." Of course, it's just the thing they like to have the women listen to. *joins you in eye rolling*

And I think the fact that I'm just not Molly Mormon enough (or at all) is driving my roommate up the wall. I get lectures. Thus, I try not to engage her in conversation that often.
