Alright, I left all the tabs open, so I could go back and refresh my memory of what I wanted to say.
[As an afterthought, I should mention that this is a mass comment to all of the entries. Enjoy! ^_^]
First: The entry for February 2005 about mistakes that men and women make (which I desperately wanted to read ::tear::) is not there. I will attempt to hunt it down, once I am done reading the manual for Roller Coaster Tycoon 3.
I know what you mean about the prayers. Those little things are what help remind me to not be too needy of God all the time, for something big. (That sentence was probably horrible, but I'm not going to read it over or else I'll spend five minutes on it.)
I was contemplating never having any more male friends beyond the two I care about the most, but your first argument gave me food for thought. Men do satisfy emotional and psychological needs, even if they are not your boyfriend. I know I can be a pain in the butt to mine, but sitting down and playing Call of Duty 4 with my best guy friend is sometimes what I need more than talking to my friends (girls).
"Let's not talk about the singles who come to eHarmony, use our process, and experience the absolute joy of being stalked by a desparate 50+ single man in Montana." I could NOT stop laughing at that.
I cannot find the words adequate enough to say thank you for this entry. (What sports are NOT about.) Some people think it's blasphemy when I tell them that I in fact, do not watch their favorite sport (football) and go on to explain how amazing it is, never mentioning that it is just FUN.
Even though I got into playing volleyball a few years back, you completely out do me. Though I have to say I stopped because of the "professional bums" who put me to pitiable shame.
Your perspective on "doing the math" is something different. (I wonder if that Bill Gates scenario actually happened...) I hope you don't become like that either. So dull. ^_^
Your advice for grad school is duly noted. I never thought about NOT going but #'s 5 & 6 gave me things to think about.
I thought every Christian overlooked the selfish-Christian attitude so I am ecstatic you posted something about it, even if it was some time back. The point in my life when my faith was at its worst, I used their selfishness as an argument against Christianity but now I see I was being selfish as well.
You are entirely right about guys and beards. It was very humorous and then after I was done, I thought of my boyfriend. I'm now hoping it doesn't go on as long as yours did. ^_~
