Please take off your shoes before you enter tonight. Thank you.
Now, take a slow, deep breath through your nostrils. In.... slowly... and exhale... verrrrrry slowly. Good. Annnnd... again... slowly in.... verrrrry slowly out.
I've lit the sage smudgestick, so please waft some of the smoke around you to clear the negativity.
WYFP is our community's Saturday evening gathering to talk about our problems, empathize with one another, and share advice, pootie pictures, favorite adult beverages, and anything else that we think might help. Everyone and all sorts of troubles are welcome. May we find peace and healing here.
Won't you please share the joy of WYFP by recommending?
It's the solstice, we're moving out of the darkness and into the light... over the jump, please tell us
What's Your F%$#ing Problem?
I don't feel like discussing my own personal FP's tonight. Frankly, they ain't so bad. Lucky me, huh?
This community is seeing some pretty serious FP's right about now, though. I'm not even going to go there, because all you need to do is look at the rec list and recent diaries and you'll get it. I think we could all stand to give and receive some peace, love, and understanding.
Character-wise, one of my FP's is lack of gratitude. So tonight I'd like to actually try to work on that. I'm grateful that I'm not... dead! Seriously. I'd be missing out on a hell of a lot of fun here if I was. I'd especially miss the sweet, smart, handsome and very sexy man who made an honest woman of me! So, I'm grateful for him. I'm grateful for our sweet furry kids... although I really wish I could figure out how to get our tuxedo cat from licking herself bald!
I'm grateful I have work to do... work that pays. I'm grateful I have a roof over my head and a climate that brings mercifully small bills in winter.
I'm grateful for this community. I really like it here and I'm so proud of the way we Left It All On The Road to get our guy elected. I am hoping that we'll make our way together to getting the nation back on track.
Merry Christmas, Happy Chanuka, Happy Kwanzaa, Joyeux Noel, Yuletide Greetings...
Chastise me for those I left out in the comments! And, if you feel so inclined, share something you're grateful for as you share with us your FP's of the day.
Update: Ahh, screw it. This version's better, anyway.
