However. <br />Yeah, why don't you take the line of by-log commentators and put them in order of has-written-the-most to has-written-the-least. <br />Yeah, so what do you imagine I look like? <br /><br />CrystalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5669838.post-1099195582780854542004-10-30T23:06:00.000-05:002004-10-30T23:06:00.000-05:00Hey Crystal, you alone again? Awwww. But don't wor...Hey Crystal, you alone again? Awwww. But don't worry, you're not really alone, 'cause I'm here for you. (That's supposed to be very comforting. Hey I can be VERY supportive *TOM, TESTIFY*.)<br /><br />Good plan. If Lita comes back in November for wedding, hide in big suitcase. And then, ta da, I'd get to meet you. Oh fun, for me anyhow. You actually might really not like me, which would be okay, but then again, you might think I'm the best thing that ever happened to you since fried chicken. Who knows! <br /><br />Someday I would like to have a line of anyone that has ever commented in here, ever. And I would like to go up and down the line to my hearts content meeting everybody. Because words are weird. When you meet someone through words you get a completely different picture than what you do meeting them in person. And it's so funny how you get these mental pictures of what you think a person looks like. It's not actually amusing until you have a "real" face to compare it to. So if I ever meet any of you and I bend over clenching my side overcome by desperate hysterics, I'm not being rude, I'm just making a comparison of two objects, one being a mere figment of my imagination, and the other, reality. <br /><br />AgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5669838.post-1099080325783744862004-10-29T15:05:00.000-05:002004-10-29T15:05:00.000-05:00Thanks for thinking of me, Tom.

"Iron sharpening iron" is not "niceness," and when it's done Biblically, it will often happen on the side of the curve where closeness is high and "niceness" takes a dip. Why is it so difficult, though, to talk to a "brother with a fault" about that fault unless he/she is at the very close level? It's almost as though there's a threshold reached. But I ramble. Thanks for the thought--it's been great fun.<br />LoriAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5669838.post-1098996837820230922004-10-28T15:53:00.000-05:002004-10-28T15:53:00.000-05:00It doesn't have to be "bell-shaped",or whatever, ...It doesn't have to be "bell-shaped",or whatever, it is what you make it. There is a way to be very straight and very real with the people you love, and continue to grow closer to them without being mean, isn't there? Don't get me wrong, I have gotten in people's faces. Especially the ones I'm close too. But there's a difference between the inevitable blunt, "realness" you will encounter when relationships deepen, and downright snottiness. It's true, I would tell a friend of mine they're annoying me alot sooner than I would tell a complete stranger, but I would tell it to the friend in love, whereas whenever I decided to gather up the courage to say it to the stranger, it would be without love. <br />~~shelleyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5669838.post-1098988326916215132004-10-28T13:32:00.000-05:002004-10-28T13:32:00.000-05:00"Like mad," yeah that's funny.
