Anonymous asked: Hi again! It's me, the “confused atheist wanting more” person. Haha. Thank you so very much for the time and consideration you spent responding to my question. When I was a child I did read “The Chronicles of Narnia”, however, I didn't read them with any intent to analyze them allegorically, so to speak. So, it might be a good idea to re-read them. Thanks for the...
Anonymous asked: Just wondering if you'd seen this set of water photos on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jolenemonheim/sets/72157600051549707/
I found one of the photos while going through some old Flickr favorites and thought of you.

Pictures like this INSPIRE me (to go out and spend a bunch of money on candles). And to light a million candles at once. I have never been willing to care that candles are fire hazards but in the bathroom especially I’m awfully cavalier because, you know, everything is non-flammable - tub and tile walls and floor and toilet, come on, let’s go nuts!
This is really the sort of thing...

My Top Movies
I’ve been thinking about my favorite movies and what they “mean”, what they REVEAL about me (eyeroll…but really). When I say favorite I mean things I’ve already seen at least 3 times and that I could probably watch many, many more times, and that I quote from, and that real life remind me of, and possibly even that either captured or influenced something about me in a...

Anonymous asked: This might sound strange, but it's something that has bothered me for some time now. I was raised an atheist. Though my parents are very open minded, and they told me I could believe what I wanted, I definitely fell into their belief system. Yet, I somehow have always felt this pull towards religion. When I was 17 I had a seizure while I was driving (it was the first time I'd had one,...

Anonymous asked: You always talk about your attempts to lose weight from a medical perspective (you need to lose weight to have your procedure done, etc.) and I know you prefer a curvier physique in general...but do you ever actually struggle with body image and self esteem issues? You just *seem* to not care and I wonder, if that's the case, how you got there. Or have you never cared?

Anonymous asked: Firstly, I really appreciate your honesty. In general! It is why I read your journal. Secondly, I agree with you w/r/t a lot of the animal stuff -- homeless people taking care of their animals or those without "animal funds" being able to own pets, kids having pets. However, the stuff about breeders vs. shelters, and people just not spaying/neutering being ok, made me kind of...
