AWKWARD!

[uberreiniger]

So a few days ago I started a Facebook. Didn't really want to, but hey, I want people to buy my novel and anything to reach a broader audience, right? Well who just friended me but my high school youth pastor? And here's my profile advertising a nice big smut novel, naked woman posing all suggestively and everything

Reminds me of the time my rabbi found a first draft of my novel which was...really violent and disturbing. Ended up in therapy for two years after the school got really freaked out.

Well, at my age I don't think I have to be worried about being sent to the principal's office :) I still remember the time I wore my Suicidal Tendencies t-shirt to prayer group and I was the only one who wound up coming. Thus prayer group was an hour of him and me debating the merits (or lackthereof,) of my musical choices from a religious point of view.

lol .. thats quite and anecdote :)
if he could stand this, maybe you shouldn't worry about his reaction so much.

[uberreiniger]

You may be right. And if he does take issue with my sexual immorality maybe he'll just blame it on the music :)

As someone with a sibling who is a stripper, I can tell you she has stories and a half to tell about people high-up in the church we attended as kids who come in on a regular basis to spend money at the strip club where she works.

Every church has its hypocrisy. That was another part of my decision not to hide: I'm religious and I write erotica. I believe the two can be reconciled and if I hid my writing then I would feel be denying that belief and admitting guilt. But I would get a kick out of your sister's stories, I'm sure :)

Love the icon :)

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Missionaries tend to be a bit more laid back on things like this than regular ministry folk. ;)

[uberreiniger]

I know missionaries invented that handy dandy sexual position, but what have they done for us lately? :)

[ladytamli]

Nothing much; fed the poor, taught third-world kids math, provided medical care for AIDS victims in Africa..

You know; not much at all. ;)

[uberreiniger]

Yeah, but... no new positions ;) (I'm being silly.)

I JUST ADDED YOU ON FACEBOOK.

Now you can be subjected to more photos of me.

[lordhellebore]

Ouch. Yes, I can see how this would be extremely awkward for you.

[uberreiniger]

I suppose it comes with the territory. That's what I get for not expecting him to find me I suppose.
