Clouds in my coffee

I got new glasses. My others broke this morning. This picture is kind of small, but they are red and fade to a violet. I like them a lot.

It was pretty tragic. Joon had chewed on them before. Last Friday, I called Schaefer and set up an appointment for Thursday. I called today to see if they could bump that up at all. So I went in today to get tested and get new glasses. I had to live blind for about a week. yaaaay.



There is also a shooting pain in my back. I like to think it has something to do with the pain in Marty's back. Sympathy pains maybe. Who knows.
So with that, stress, glasses and other things, I had an awful hour this morning.
But my mom came in to town. Marty, Andrew and I hung out. We shopped, ate ice cream, and went to dinner. Then mom and I went to see Spamalot. HILARIOUS. I have not laughed that much in ages.


On other notes, I saw "For the Bible Tells Me So" not long ago. It was a phenomenal film. I wish everyone would see it. It made me laugh and it made me cry. To think there are people so cold hearted like this. I would rather not get in to the debate, but I will say this. We are called to love people. And for us to hate each other for things like this - wrong. I talked to both of my parents about the matter. I told my mom that I know she would love me unconditionally no matter what. I asked her, "How could a parent just STOP Loving their child?" She seemed baffled as well. Watch the trailer for the movie. It is slightly alarming. While I find myself fairly well educated on the fact, I found myself being so much MORE educated. I am not going to preach. I really just want people to watch this movie.

You stole David Dollar's blog's name. :)

That church is so blind. I feel so sorry for them. They are terribly terribly uninformed of God's real, actual love. And sadly one day it will be too late for them.

it isn't just a church though. this film is about most of society. i bought it. it is on its way. That song was playing in the background when I wrote this.

I can't believe that you have to wait a week for glasses! My eye doctor has a 24 hour lab... man! Just tape the old ones together with white athletic tape! :)
