Going under the knife tomorrow morning :S
by Elsewhere ini'm not a big fan of surgery.
i always exhaust all non-surgical options before doing it.
i know enough about medicine to know that surgery is effectively a controlled injury... and that makes me nervous.

my sister lives in a small town where it was a big deal when one went up... the whole town (ok.. not all of it) was in an uproar..
but they got it any way..
My sister cooks/bartends for a bar two doors down and we've talked about it.. Her bf has been there a couple of times.. but the odd thing is you can't have a drink there... and he does like to drink so... he doesn't spend a lot of time there..
My sister says the girls come in to get food sometimes at the bar.. she says she just doesnt' want to visulize them stripping as she serves them their meal..

I am Frustrated beyond belief~/Please read!
by restrangled injust had a conversation with my mom about 13 million spent on defending and losing court cases by the society.. i argued that they can't argue against the catholics when they themselves are guilty of the same.. she replied she didn't care.
(after sending them $100,000.00 dollars) she stated that the catholic church had spent billions defending them selves and if the jw's had only spent millions .
that the society had spent billions sending a message, and if i didn't like their message then leave her alone and the rest of the group.. i am burning with rage......i was accused of trying to destroy her beliefs, and if i was not in agreement to reject the entire religion........which of course i have already done many moons ago.. r..

My first week here ...thoughts
by emy the infidel ini have been hear for about a week now, and have not been is such a strange mental place since i was a witness.
it has been good, the programming still kicks in however, but i'm getting less and less afraid to reason with it.
i got my coc book yesterday.... i sat looking at it and thinking of all the years i avoided it, mischaracterized and marginalized it, w/out having any specific knowledge of what was actually in it.

my friend (at the time.. I was still a dub) angie called me.. she woke me up and asked me if I knew what happened? Being in Cali, it was earlier when the first plane hit.. I turned on the news.. dumbstruck..
then I went to work..
we found out the president (at the time)'s brother was on the 15th floor.. and one of my coworkers cousins was in one of the towers too...
they sent us home from work in case LA was another Target.. so I headed home and Simplesally.. (who was also still a dub then) invited me to come down to the OC to be with her.. rather than be alone..
after all.. we never knew if Armegeddon could be triggered at any time you know.. so we watched the tv together.....
fyi.. the presidents brother survived the fall to the ground from the 15th floor.. my friend/co workers cousin did not

What exactly can I get disfellowshipped for?
by Younglove1999 inmy husband and i have been inactive for almost 8 months.
we haven't gone to a meeting and slowly our jw friends have stopped associating with us because we're "weak".
at some point, we'll be celebrating holidays.

And of course, for the sake of my mother and father, I have to bite my tongue in front of them...for now.
you are in a catch 22 here.... if you openly celebrate Xmas.. then it might force your parents hand in associating with you... not only turning you in, but if you are dfd' they may not associate with you..
but if you hide it.. then your child gets a dysfunctional life too... you can't win..
