    I spent the whole morning reading, finishing one book and restarting another.

    Now to get some provisions and then I intend to take some notes (the memoirs I mention in the reading thread makes for good reference in the process of mortuaries and post Mortems) and then maybe more reading.

    You can tell the ungrateful bastard 'hi'. :p

    I chose the bestest, most greenest grass away from the road for him, too. That's what makes your answer 100%.

    I have two cats now (or a cat & a kitten).

    Parents rescued another feral kitten and got her all healthy and social.

    I was ranch-sitting this weekend in case of fire while the family went to visit my little brother, his little baby, and his wife. So when I was heading home, mama bear asked if I would take the kitten back with me & Namir.

    After half a day's worth of stressful contemplation, I ended up bringing her home.

    Namir has been ecstatic and wrestled Kailea all last night till this morning. And I feel great that I don't need to feel guilty for working long hours or even now going out for extended periods and leaving Namir at home alone in a studio apartment with little stimulation.

    Now he has a playmate.

    But I'm still a little stressed about ramifications.

    So it's a happy-anxious.

    what sex is the kitten ? If its female I'd urge biological intervention early, before you wind up with lots of kittens

    Today at down I was sad, nervous and unsatisfied. I thought, God doesn,t like me, is angry at me and behaves to me severely. I slept unsatisfied and even didn,t do my obligated prayer.

    I woke up three hours later, while had a different feeling. something inspired me to change my wrong veiwpoint about merciful God and do my obligated evening prayer.
    I got up and did. In the prayer I felt
    the dissatisfication was removed from my heart and was replaced with a pleasant relaxation and sureness.
    Now I'm calm and have a good feeling,

    Some men like their wives be similar to a pillow full of feathers. some other like their wives be skinny like a spider, and the choice of some of hudbands is in moderate.

    well, these men are not blamable, because in fact their choices are their interest.
    I believe wives should accord themselves with interest of their men and give them whatever they like.
    of course some women are obese or skinny genetically and they are not capable to lose their fat or become obese. their husband should understand the fact and be adaptable with the condition. If some wives eat a truck of meat and fruite everyday, they will not become fatter than what they are.

    I wish a good luck for you and your husband :)

    Really? I believe relationships are based on equality and partners should give each other the freedom to have the body they feel comfortable with. Women aren't obliged to cater to the desires of men.

    You'll note that Mans is posting from Iran... I think we need to make allowances for cultural differences ;)

    I don't think opinions should be safe from being challenged solely on the basis of cultural differences... especially not if they are devaluating half of the human population. But I get your point, don't worry. I'll leave it.

    Certain schedule changes and various restructuring measures at work have resulted in me being scheduled to work four twelve hour days a week; three of them solo. I have a very nondemanding job, so that means on three days of the week, random customer interuptions aside, I will have twelve hours to write while drawing an hourly wage. I still have my regular duties to tend to, which aren’t severe, so that may cut me down to about nine or ten hours writing time, but I can live with that.

    I found six pounds, will I do? I’m up to 209lbs. It’s great, when I turn sideways people don’t ask ‘where’d he go?’ anymore.

    1. I was able to have a conversation with my mom about romantic preferences. She said she thought I liked men and women and I was able to say, "Not romantically. I don't want to marry a guy."* I was also able to tell her that I still find some specimens of the male sex attractive. She wasn't defensive or anything and we had an actual conversation.

    2. My parents are away for a few days and today I'm off of work. This means that today is a Fallout day.

    * = this may change. I don't classify myself as anything but gay, asexual, and non-binary.
