Hypocrite
I hate how people say they can’t find the words to say something and then proceed to be incredibly verbose about it.

noruffles: Hey guys. If any of you want a prophetic word, let me know. I will ask God.  I know some of you will probably get your backs up at this - but I believe God likes to be asked for things, specific things, because He wants to get glory, so He wants to do the work! And, it’s easy over the Internet, with limited preconceptions as to what you want, what you need etc.  It was on my heart...

Rant: Triple J Hottest 100
Background: I live in Australia. It’s Australia Day. On Australia Day a radio station called Triple J has a hottest 100 songs of the previous year countdown as voted by listeners through their website. The number one song was… Gotye “Somebody That I Used To Know” And EVERYONE IS RAGING ABOUT IT.  I mean, for flip’s sake. Everyone is so against it but SOMEONE had...

After watching Megamind
StarkRaving: It's not that I didn't like it, it was just that it was a bit... 'meh'
NoRuffles: I'm not surprised you think that.
SR: It just had a very 'Ben Stiller Vibe' I wouldn't be surprised if he was producer or writer or something.
NR: *Looks at back of case* What even is a Ben Stiller.... Are you serious???
SR: What?
NR: Ben Stiller: Executive Producer!

Today's Origami was an inside reverse fold
Nothing exciting. I’m not taking a picture of an inside reverse fold.  Also, it was part of yesterdays pattern. I’m thinking this calender is less than quality.

Follow Back Girl
I get really nervous when people follow me back. Especially people who must have thousands of followers.  Then there’s me, on the raggedy edge, carving out my tiny little piece of cyberspace.  People follow me and I don’t always follow them back. I should edit that to rarely. Because I spend A LOT of time on here. I’m committed to going back through my dash as regularly as I...

It is Australia Day. Which we should celebrate in the sense that this is an okay country to live in. But we also need to balance that with understanding that we forcefully colonised and tried to genocide the native people. We are one of the few nations not forged in war. Then again, we do come from a large swathe of convicts, though the real criminals are probably the wardens and those who had...

Windows
I’ve just realised how many windows are open in the house right now. It’s 11PM.  And the person who opened them is in bed. There was a rule about this. I’m so not a window person. I mean, letting nature in? Why would you? I normally don’t notice them but I just got a mosquito bite.

Dad: Aha!
Me: What are you aha-ing about this time?
Dad: I found my birth certificate.
Me: Good, good. Some people need proof that you weren't hatched.
Dad: Come look at it, I have proof now that I'm a bastard. See that, the day I was born and that the day my parents were married. Bastard, for six months at least.

Things
Why is it so hot? I do not like it. One of the departments at work today refused to take my calls. I wonder if I’ve offended someone. I wonder if I’m paranoid. It could go either way. I had to do a pointless job but my favourite line manager was on and so we could laugh about the idiocy of the duty manager.  I’m meant to make a pavlova tonight for my uncle’s birthday...

Anonymous asked: I'm glad to hear a rational response! I believe in a god-like entity, but not exactly your God. You have made my night by reassuring me that though you may label yourself as "stark raving" (which is usually associated with "mad" as well) you are a peaceful Christian. My best wishes on your spiritual journey.

I've Discovered
There are people who I have not unfollowed who I am not following. This happens a bit with my tumblr account. And, ironically, I only notice because I’m unfollowing people, I go to their blog page to do this and see something reblogged from someone I thought I was following and realise that I’m not following them. Tumblr, please stop unfollowing people on my behalf. I’m...

Divorce
No one plans for it. No one wants to do it. No one goes into marriage thinking, ‘if we get divorced, no big deal’.  No. On your wedding day, you are pretty damn sure you’ve paid a lot of money for a ceremony to indicate that you are going to spend the rest of your life with someone.  My parents got divorced when I was a teenager. It had been coming for a lot of years, and it...

I Am Forgiven.
leeyounger: I’ve been a mess. I won’t try and hide it, and you wouldn’t have to dig too deep to find the evidence for it. I’m a sinner. And look, I’m not just saying that I’m a sinner in theory - like when folks say, “Nobody’s perfect” or something like that. I mean that I have a laundry list of actual bad decisions, messed up thoughts, harsh and cruel words and on and on. I have been a selfish,...

myquietcolors asked: Hey dear, I saw your comment on the other ask. I wanted to say that God is using me to speak truth on this issue, and he is using me specifically because I *have* attempted suicide. I have been there. So often we pick parks of the Bible we like and forget what corrects us. God is a God of miricals, he can heal. The world is waiting for Christians to fall. We have to put on the armor of Christ...

NoRuffles: Inara reminds me of Sarah just there.
