  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I totally suck at making rice. I tried a few days ago. I didn't let it sit long enough, so it was still kinda crunchy. So I just tried again, let it sit half an hour and it was STILL crunchy. I added a little more water to let it sit to see if that would work. NOPE. Only made it soupy. UGH! Then of course my sister needs to rib me, "How can you mess up instant rice?"

IJWTS - someone please tell me how to get over this whole "I want a meaningful relationship with someone" thing that I can't seem to kick. I'm tired of wanting something I'll never have. And I'm tired of men who tell me I'm pretty and relationship material, but not for them. Just don't say it if you don't actually mean it. And the only men who actually do express interest are creeps who are clearly only after one thing.

I just want to be content and happy growing old by myself and stop hoping for something that isn't likely to happen.

(and yes this is a self-pity post. I figure I'm entitled to one every so often. So don't anyone tell me , "oh you're still young. It could still happen!" Or anything else similar. I don't want anyone to try to make me feel better with false hope and I just want to wallow right now :p)

No help from me here. Just joining the choir. Had strong feelings about this yesterday. Also realized that I'll probably need someone who is also willing to take care of me sometimes, make sure I eat and eat right remind me of some important things every now and again. I know that I should probably try to make sure I can do all those things by myself before finding someone but I'm failing at it.

For a true wallow, you need to be eating ice cream and screaming at some sappy chick flick about how you will never find your ____ [insert name of movie hunk here] and then cry inconsolably for at least 20 minutes.

I had Ethiopian for the first time today. The owners were super sweet and I loved how spicy the food was.

YUM! What did you have? I loooooove Ethiopian food. And Ethiopian women are pretty nice too. And there are a lot of both of those around this area. Yay for me! ^_^


IJWTS: Well nothing. Nothing is really on my mind. How boring. :)

IJWTS- I must have been so tired last night because I knocked out as soon as I got on the bed. :D
Another busy say today. Keep me in your all's prayers. :hug: Should be a fun busy day though, if the Lord is willing. ^_^

Little Ethiopia. There were a lot of small resturants so we just happened to pick a spot. The owners were so kind. Also I loved when she asked if we were going to eat together.
