Done

I have had my last uncomfortable conversation with friends. Word of my Nation membership is slowly filtering throughout my friend roster. It's weird too. Since it's been nearly 2 years. Yesterday an oooooold... ahem... friend that I haven't laid oeyes on in long over a year contacted me with a ridiculous amount of questions. He wanted to know why did I join and if I was still single? WTF? That makes no daggone sense to me what any thing has to do with anything else. He's not even a Christian! Yeah we used to go to the same church when we were kids and we were in the same class at Catholic School but he is in NO way considered a religious person. Why is he so constipated about decisions that have absolutely nothing to do with him?

My handy man (for real, he fixes things in my house) is a preacher. Has been since I've known him. He's a big flirt too. (aren't all preachers?) He, too, was initially angry when he asked (almost 2 years ago) why I started covering my head. This I never understood because it wasn't like he was my preacher. He and I were discussing some household problem, started chatting about this and that, the conversation shifted and I mentioned to him that a lot of folks and even some relatives decided to kick me to the curb because of my decision to leave the church. I was confused because I know that Christianity does not advocate that. I was just curious about his perspective since he is a clergyman. He asked, why would I want to be friends with Christians anyway? There are enough heathens in the world for me to chill with, why bother good Christian folk. **screwface** WTF? See the constant bull that I get?

Well, I'm done. If you cannot accept me for me... then kiss my ass on your way out the door. And I mean it.



Peace
