*happy*

[serene]

The Munchkin is here. He is happy, peaceful, and affectionate. He is enjoying the birthday gift his Nana and I got him, and he is helpful and gentle. I have missed him SO much. I'm SO glad he's here. And now, the two of us will go to sleep. Oh, wait, he just zonked. Okay, *I'll* go to sleep. Right after I post about nice things recently.

Nice things recently:

mackenzie came over and brought yummy tomatoes and tolerated my fixation on getting mail wrapped and stamped.

stonebender and I spent a few hours hanging out in Berkeley today. Once again, I got too much sun. That's it. I have to start being religious about sunscreen, and buy a good sun hat and glasses. I sunburned my eyeballs again, not to mention my face. (I know that doesn't SOUND like a good thing, but basking in the sun with my sweetheart is worth it.)

My mother sent me the pot she made spaghetti sauce in all through my childhood. I am happy.

I have been working my way through the house, getting it back to a state I can live with. I cleaned all the dead plants and detritus out of one windowsill, took down and cleaned one of the over-the-sink shelves, and deep-cleaned the sink. Tomorrow, another windowsill and the icky kitchen floor.

I'm taking a break from being mean to bisexuals, and being mean to atheists for a change. 'sfun.

Thank you for the explanation. I was confused, thinking, "But wait... Serene is bisexual and an atheist." :) But I guess activism begins at home!

I fully agree that many atheists can be tedious in their insistence that they have the One Truth - which isn't much different from religious fanatics, IMO. (Although the latter are more dangerous, at least right here & now.)

I heard Richard Dawkins on Fresh Air a few months ago and he really annoyed me. He's just so smug, arrogant and utterly disparaging of anyone who feels a need to follow a spiritual path. Pfui. (He's interesting from a science perspective, but really, he should stay out of theology!)

I'll have to chew on the systemic biphobia issue... although if you feel like encapsulating a few of the issues, I'd be interested. Don't bother if you're sick of that discussion, though.

See you tonight! I will probably arrive late because I have to go shopping first.

I live with militant atheists. Sometimes it drives me nuts (the smugness factor). One of them even tried to convert me - and I'm an AGNOSTIC!

There must be something more productive to do than make fun of my Rob Breszny habit, you know?
