a sideways post

continuing on [with everything].
Just saw MANDELA: A Long Walk To Freedom. So good, yet so sad. Some really good dialogue in there.  Hate... is a corrosive emotion. Hate is the only weapon that is more dangerous to the person holding it, than to anyone that person uses it on. The only thing worth hating...is hate, itself. I don't remember if I ever posted this on here or not. One of my dreams is that everyone in heaven...is a different color than everyone else. This way, we can give racism the finger, without moving a muscle. Without having to do anything, at all. Why waste time on something that is a waste of time, itself? After all, we all bleed the same color.
Looks like a chance of rain Fri. & sat. I hope at least one of those days looks better. I can work around the other.
this isn't turning out like I was hoping at the beginning... however. I thought I'd post a comment I posted on: Stuff Christians Like. One of the blogs that's linked to on the side of mine.
He talks about allergies. So, If you were wondering if I have any... well, the list goes like this:
cats, dogs, hay, cut grass, mold, dust, ...& then there are the "out there" ones. carrots, & smokes [from least to worst: cigarettes, cigars, everything else]. So here was my comment:

I get pretty much all of this [even the comments]. I have so many allergies, I’m afraid the next thing I’ll be allergic to is having allergies. I joke about it A LOT. I have to. It’s either that or be mad.
So… I don’t do drugs, I just wait for allergy season so I can feel that way for free. The only allergy I like is that [believe this or not] I’m allergic to cigarette smoke [as well as the "other" smokes]. So seeing Rush live for my birthday was fun, years ago. Even though I paid for it for about a week afterwards. “you ok?” “yeb, I’b fibne. lobed ta concert” I was a mess. Allergy shots have worked wonders for me as well. I have a few minor moments, nothing like I used to, though. my favorite joke? Begins with my being allergic to carrots. A gal at my church still hates it when I say her carrot cake is “killer”. [carrots give me Anaphylaxis] It’s a “cross pollination” thing. So I have it “part time”. SEE? the economy is messing with everything. I can’t even get a full time allergy anymore. The REAL joke was years later. My Allergist: “you can try carrots again. Just make sure you have someone with you when you do.”
Me: “so…let me get this straight. I’m 36 years old, & I can’t have carrots without ‘adult supervision’?” If you hate something bad enough, there’s a joke in there somewhere. Thanks for making me laugh. Sorry your suffering, though. We could all buy stock in Kleenex. [it's the thought that counts. That's why I think a lot] - See more at: http://stuffchristianslike.net/2014/04/16/pretty-sure-devil-invented-allergies/#comment-197110

 I hope this made you laugh. [I hope it made Jon Acuff, & his readers laugh, & not just hate me]
anyway. that's the 411 on "me & allergies".
I'm thankful for humor. I need to laugh sometimes.
