I put curlers in my hair on Tuesday night and slept in them. Unfortunately I used the wrong ones and put the smaller ones in my hair and when I woke up I had Shirley Temple curls to tamper with. So of course, when I brushed it…

TNEL starts today!! WEEEE! And I put my hair in curlers last night but I put them in the smaller ones instead of the bigger ones and I woke up this morning with an afro. : (

(I’ll upload the pictures when I get home.)
(You’ll laugh.)

My x365 post today isn’t on an old schoolmate, a friend, or even someone I know or have ever spoken to. It’s on a complete stranger that commented on a photo in my flickr stream.

“Retired (1994),Sr. Citizen, married (40 yrs), bulbar polio survivor(1951), hockey fan, and christian. Now have COPD, Bronchiectasis, PPS, severe dysphagia, PEG tube fed and hypertension. Worked in pulp and paper industry 32 yrs as a mechanical project engineer. Interested in computers, digital photography and summer side trips in the car.”

Okay, at first I saw his age and his comment and I’ll admit, I judged. I freaked because a seventy year old man had commented on one of my portraits saying it was beautiful. It gave me the creeps, but after forcing myself to read through his entire profile I felt like an ass.

“Peter’s appreciation for the beauty of life should be a standard for all to live by. He is a true gentleman. You cannot do any better than having Peter as a friend.”

“I’ve seen Peter’s comments all around Flickr - he seems to always act as a gentelman - never demanding alway complimenting others he is trully a great spirit. I am proud to know him and the spirit he has for life. Bravo my Flickr friend we love you. Good luck with your struggles for you are loved.”

Now, after reading that, what is your impression of this Christian gentlemen, suffering, but full of so much life and heart? Exactly what mine was, probably. A lonely wonderful, Christian, man who is now confined to a chair and computer for most of his days who loved photography. Right?

Well, for those of you not familiar with Flickr, at the very bottom of every profile is a list of the groups you have joined and often frequent.

Here are some of Peter’s:

Breasts In Public, Lesbians!, nice boobs, Sexy Women, Women Kissing Women, Sexy Women Who Want “It”, tight tits, Newcomer Nude Models, and Hot, Sexy, Naked Women. To name just a few. And I shudder to think of what kind of accidental traffic I might attract because of what I just typed.

Now, I’m sitting here, with so much feeling and SO much to say to this, but I just feel that it can go unsaid. Everything I’ve ever felt about people disgracing the “Christian” name, ideals, etc is right there in front of me and for once I feel just too tired to bitch about it.

I just thought I would share.

Don’t forget to watch the bloopers! And I swear I’m done posting about food for a while!

Writing about someone a day every day for a year has proven to be difficult. Three hundred and sixty five people will touch my life this year in my thoughts, and you get to be one of them, and I spoke to you once, because you were the arrogant idiot wandering through Meijer in Grand Rapids with enough nerve to stomp on someone else’s fun just because you could. It wasn’t a friendly warning it was a, haha, I told you so without the ever being told part.
