Timeliness, I have it.

So, everything is done and over with the latest kerfuffle of stupid people being insensitive and relishing their own stupidity. But honestly, there's more to it. The chick that did all the defending of using the name for the comm that was hurtful, ignorant, and horrendous is Mormon, as I posted last. I just posted something over at the book comm 0hmyheck that might shed some light on how Mormons really feel about the Jews. WARNING: could be incendiary for those that don't want to be reminded that the Jewish people have gotten next to little respect for a long time. I mean to educate, not hurt my lovely Jewish friends, so I warn. *gives cookies*

(note 1: I don't reply to all the comments over there. A) there isn't time often and B) they may be unrelated to the topic at hand.)

In other news, I lost four plants (purple oxalis and some annuals, so that's alright) but I was made sick to my stomach when I saw my weeping Japanese Maple. What was left of it. I carefully dug that tree up from my old house and moved it here, spent a week making a place for it instead of unpacking my dishes, that's how much I loved this thing. The whole top half was split in half. There's no way it could recover, so I had to top it and leave the bottom two feet. (It was as tall as me with wonderful undulating limbs of crimson.) Anyone who knows trees know this: topping trees is bad. It means it won't get taller. My hope is that the cuttings I took from the damaged limbs will take and I'll have wee babies to nurture. *cries*

(Note 2: the owner of the roofing company apologized and said how worried he was to work on our roof because of my extensive landscaping. And.... that was the end of it from him. O_O I guess that's what you get when you have a roofing company that works to make the final cost the amount from the insurance. *crawls under blankets and is sad*)

In other news, I'm writing missionary porn. And it is BLASPHEMOUS, so take that, church! So cathartic, writing this, I can't begin to tell you.

I need lunch.

Oh noes. I got a little tear in my eye. Your poor poor tree. I was SO hoping that everything would sproing back with the sproinginess of springtime.
*hugs you a little, then makes some tea and cookies for you*
*kicks that roofer in his STUPID ass*

[fishsanwitt]

::hugs:: for your landscaping. When we had our roof done, the area below was trampled :(

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I was so sad!! The others will (hopefully) bounce back, but the tree... Well, it may just get very wide instead of tall. *hopes*

Oooh, cookies!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

And the thing is, it's FINE every where else. The other three sides of my house. !!!

I did rejoice in one of the crew cutting his arm up on my Juliet rose with inch long thorns. Serves you right, buddy!

Oh NO Laura... I absolutely love Japanese maples, and I know how much that one meant to you. I'm so sad for you.

As for the owner's "apology," well, I love how he turned it around and made it sound as if it were your fault for having "extensive landscaping."

*kicks roofers*

*hugs you and feeds you homemade pizza, which is what I'm having for lunch*

I'm looking forward to reading your blasphemous missionary porn.

[ely-jan.livejournal.com]

Your poor tree! *heartclench* Those are such gorgeous trees, too, but if anyone can nurse a seedling to fruition, it's you. I still contend that you should get to nailgun a couple of kneecaps in recompense. I'm a knee for a tree kinda gal.

*coughs* And I'm certainly available to beta for your carthartic blasphemy, just saying. *churchkinkyay*

[xochitl42.livejournal.com]

Bwaaaah! :( I am SO sorry about your beautiful garden. Japanese maples make me weak in the knees.

As for your Misionary prOn: I don't usually read that particular explicitness of fic, but I'll read yours. Count me in! :D

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

love how he turned it around and made it sound as if it were your fault for having "extensive landscaping."

You noticed that too, huh? Gosh, I'm sorry I didn't make life easy for you, Mr. Roofer, by anticipating a new roof, therefore never doing any landscaping whatsoever.

Mmm, pizza! That's better than my chips and queso and a Coke Zero. :D

Are you, now? Heeeee. Anne, if I was in any way shape or form an active Mormon, I would be thinking my soul would be destroyed by god for writing this. \o/

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Oooh, I will totally take you up on that offer, missy. (Hogod, they are going to do it IN CHURCH. Um, just like a couple of people I know in real life, ahem.) It'll be like the Thorn Birds, except not! :D

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

They are SO HARD to grow here, because of our heat, so I was especially proud of this one. Waaaah.

And sweeet. But please know that I won't be offended if it's not your cup of tea. I never mind that stuff.

[ely-jan.livejournal.com]

Hot damn! Literally. *shivers* Such a hot button for me, a shiny blinky flashing punch me hard button.

Even brought a priest to TSP - his fall from grace is going to be a lovely thing.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

There may be Inappropriate Touching while kneeling down in communal prayer. <-- Express One Way Ticket To Hell, muah ah ah!

Niiiiiiiice. (And I'm going on the angle of him coming out IS his saving grace. \o/)

[ely-jan.livejournal.com]

Oh, NICE. As I'm skipping the bus to special hell and getting a limo, we'll pick you up on the way. There will be COCKtails!

That's absolutely true, especially as he was out and then...in, and the temptations are so very delicious. Masturbation involving rosary beads scratching his skin as he writhes and struggles to resist - that's next.

[mobile-alh.livejournal.com]

oh, your poor Red Dragon...it was so lovely.(crosses fingers for offspring from the parent tree.)

[undersea.livejournal.com]

I've never felt this sad for a tree before. :O


Bring on the blasphemy!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I'm hoping like crazy they'll take. I put six in the cloche last night... *crosses fingers*

[pernickety.livejournal.com]

Not the weeping maple! No no no. Maybe it'll just be wide instead of tall? So long as it survives... that roofing company are dickweeds. Have they never heard of lowering stuff in a bucket? Maybe working a rope is beyond their technical ability.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

hahaha, I know! Oh, woe.

Whoo and a HOO! *porns like the wind*

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, that's what I said above somewhere, too. At least it might get very very wide!

And I've seen companies tack tarps to the edges of the roof, then someone stands below holding the edge so it slides down and AWAY. Did these guys do that at first? No. *stabs*

[beadattitude.livejournal.com]

Oh honey. My mama's japanese maple got split in nearly two by some careless builders. It looked SO forlorn for a long, long time, but some years later, that side has filled back out and looks stunning. She drapes christmas tree lights on it in the winter and it looks purdy that way, too.

::hugs and rocks you::

[moosesal.livejournal.com]

Oh your poor tree. *hugs you and the tree*

But the porn sounds fabulous. :)

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

hahaha, so far the porn is not materializing, it's all meta so people don't go, "What the hell is she talking about?" OKAY, BOYS. GET NAKED.

*squishes you to bits and keeps you*

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Bwaaaaaaah bwah bwah bwah bwah. *homestarrunners*

I am clinging to that hope! CLINGING.

[beadattitude.livejournal.com]

(Did you kick your feet and did tears spring three feet from your eyes?) Lil BRUDDER!!!!! That little guy! ::snif::

Have to go watch that again. And Caffeine.

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry about the lost beebee plantses. :(

*braids your hair*

In other news, WHEEEEEEE, MISSIONARY PORN!

You should seriously have some kind of...missionary porn fic challenge, because OH MY GOD, THE HAWT!
