For the Fans

I have recently received complaints from my two readers that I havent posted in awhile and this pains them. And so my friends, this one is for you both.

I havent been updating recently because nothing interesting has really been going on, which is kind of nice for me but boring at the same time. However, something interesting did happen this morning when I was checking the messages. This woman called and gave her information and said that she was Catholic and lives in Oregon and thinks she is a victim of kidnapping and brainwash and wants someone to get in contact with her sister. There are several strange things about this situation, one being the obvious, but what was extremely bizarre was that this woman leaving the message was very calm and sounded almost bored. She was rambling on about trying to find her sister and being scared and whatnot but was completely bored throughout the whole message. I kind of wish she had called when I was there so I could get the deets and maybe get this woman to emote. Also, Im sorry, but what grown woman gets brainwashed and duped into moving to Oregon? And if this really is the case and now shes onto being brainwashed, why doesnt she just leave? She obviously made it to a phone and she decided to call the Archdiocese of Boston instead of someone more helpful like the police? Thats dumb. This is whats wrong with religious zealots because theyre so easy to manipulate into doing something so obviously stupid. Remember Elizabeth Smart? Her kidnappers kept her 8 miles from her house and she willingly stayed because they told her God wanted her to be with them. If God is telling you to do stupid things, like camping out with two crazies 8 miles away from your house, you probably shouldnt listen to him.

Boston College is having their commencement today. Not only am I bitter that they get their graduation on a beautiful day while my own took place inside the tennis bubble, but I can hear the ceremony from my window and its annoying. So congratulations, graduates! Look forward to low income, less downtime and shitty jobs!

Oh, and Ive become mildly obsessed with this
