Graphics / Anonymous Comments / Mediterranean Chips / Eric and plans / Questions 3351-3400 of 5000

I like the little graphic LJ puts in when you delete posts now:



I received a couple of anonymous comments elsewhere: apparently, the writer "knows" that one of my "friends" has stopped talking to me because I post IM convos in my journal. Either I now have to be more careful about what I post, or how I post it. Then again, nothing is really private if you post it on the Internet... but I am not entirely sure I should trust this, either! Although that MIGHT explain why Corey's been so quiet lately... that, or it's a certain someone out to get me. Aiyoh!

These Mediterranean chips are good: taro, sweet potato, yuca, batata, and parsnip. Eric just came online and joked that he'd pick me up at 8.. that's exactly what I was hoping to AVOID, thanks! :P But 9:20-9:25 (or 9:30, more realistically) is better for me, heh.


Karen sent me an email about yesterday:

"Hi Leslie,

I am so sorry. I had sent an email to our group on Tuesday, Jan. 10th, canceling Bible Study. Very few people were able to attend last Friday. I misunderstood your last e-mail to me that you were not coming. I am so sorry that you came on Friday and we were not there. I will make this up to you.

I just noticed that I addressed you in writing the email, but I forgot to include your e-mail address in the sending group. My slip-up caused you inconvenience and disappointment. I am sorry, Leslie. I do care about you. Please forgive me and let me make this up to you." (and then she included the email that cancelled Bible Study)

Well, there's nothing I can do but forgive her, heh. No wonder I didn't get any emails about it if she forgot to include my email address in the email that cancelled Bible Study! I was kinda mad and disappointed, yeah.

Got these questions from this QuestionClub LJ post by Arthurbulla. I'm going to post the survey in 50-question batches, like the original. No worries there! Five thousand questions and answers wouldn't fit as an entry, anyhow. :P

The only complete copy... you'll have to go around erasing answers.


3351. True or false: When someone hates you, it is because:

they're jealous of you? In some cases, yes.

the things you say are frightening to them because what you say makes them think about things they would rather avoid thinking about? Maybe.

3352. True or false: When you hate someone, it is because:

you're jealous of them? In some cases, yes.

you don't understand them? Yes.

3353. Have you ever been fascinated by someone who hated you? No.

3354. Since the human brain has defense mechanisms against feeling bad (meaning the brain lies to itself to avoid feeling bad about something it said or did), how can we ever know if we are truly being honest? I'm not sure, but I know that we really know what the real version of the truth is, deep down inside ourselves.

How do we know our brains are not tricking us into believing we are good people when we aren't all good? I have no idea about that... I mean, I'd like to believe I'm mostly good... aren't I?

don't change: for anyone except yourself.

maybe someday: I will find someone who accepts me for me.
