I can't wait to vote in local elections. I'm pretty sure I will vote in the presidental election this year, but not sure for who yet.
It's great to know that some of you have excercised your right to vote.
on monday i'm going to register to vote since i'm able to do so when i renew my drivers license.
i'm actually kind of excited since i never did register because of they way i was brought up.. how many of you are registered to vote?.

Raised as an only child I can still be pretty stingy. When it comes to animals I'm very giving.
I do use caution when being giving with friends and family...

so the oldest man in the world, a japanese, has just celebrated his 115 birthday.. i was reading the other day that life expectancy in my country is around 78.2 today,.
that half the people born since 2000 are expected to see 100 years old, and that.
the first person that will live to 150 years old, is already alive.. so how long would you like to live?.
I want to live as long as I'm able to take care of myself and not become a burden on my children in my old age....
as a witness eepcially during my teens - early twenties i believed that satan was watching me for my weaknesses.. .
this gave me a mild form of paranoia.. .
do you believe satan was watching you?.
I was always freaked out about Jehovah watching my every move, not Satan. The thought of the big J watching me fuck up freaked the hell outta me. That gave me a huge complex till I was 19. By then I stopped giving a big F and did my own thing. Since then life has been a lot better.
you might be a jehovah's witness if .
you know when nisan 14 is but you forget you own birthday.
you wash windows for a living but you own five suits.
YOU MIGHT BE A JEHOVAH'S WITNESS IF . . .
You're a high school drop out without a GED.

earlier today at work my inactive jw co-worker was telling me how the elders want to set up a meeting with her parents and with her, and her husband who is studying.
they haven't been to a meeting in at least 2-3 months, skipped the assembly, and missed the special day assembly.
they missed it due to just being busy with life and other things.

They haven't been to a meeting in at least 2-3 months, skipped the assembly, and missed the special day assembly. They missed it due to just being busy with life and other things. No big deal in my opinion, but a big no-no in JW land.
So while she was telling me that they need to mind their own business, somehow the subject of loving Jehovah came up. She ending up saying to me: "I know you love Jehovah." (She knows that I haven't been to a meeting since 2004)
I looked her in the eye....smiled...and said "No, I can honestly say I don't.
She insisted that I do....She said that she knows me. Really????
I told her there is no chance in hell that I would never go back....and if for some crazy reason, if I did go back.....I would never go out in service, give talks, be a householder, go to meetings during the week, not go to any assemblies, and not go to Sunday meeting either. Basically I was trying to give her a hint that I have absolutely no interest in that lifestyle. I also said that being raised a JW was not my choice as a child, but since I'm now and adult, it's my choice to live my life the way I want to live it. She did agree that we should choose to live the way we want to live.
I can see why she went back. She is close to her parents and they gave her a ton of guilt trips about going back...The funny thing is that she always says she will never go out in service, give talks, and prays that if her hubby ever gets baptized (been studying for 3yrs) that he will never be an elder. But she does pray, and according to her that's all that counts. LOL! It's funny and sad to listen to her sometimes, but oh well...It just reminds me why I will never go back to that life!
