Saturday Post 299

Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 668 steps (coz obviously, I've not left the house yet) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'You Can Begin Again' but thirdly and way most importantly, I'm still owed TWENTY-ONE MINUTES online when I get back home from church tonight!!  Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 4th consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until 6:10am, and after one pot :P trip, I spent the ten minutes till 6:20am beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* Actually, since PIG mum’s holidaying in HK right now, I'm enjoying a bit of holiday myself! XD
• At 2:45pm I've played one game of Bejeweled lasting 5:05. Now, lemme finish one more game lasting between six and seven minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• About ten minutes later, dearest dad comes to hit me with the eye goo! Shirley grimly reminded him that he'd better not disturb our beauty sleep by being noisy else she'd give him the dreaded Bear Bum; dad just laughed and retucked us into bed. XD After he'd gone, I spent another ten minutes  continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
• Now @ 3:23pm I've finished one more game of Bejeweled lasting 6:24. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms because I've actually also played two more memorable games, one lasting 7:40 and the other 7:42! But I've spent too long playing, so just briefly:
• Besta minded me from 10am till 2pm. I showered @ 12:30pm coz Kim doesn't come Saturday arvos anymore.
• I finished the Bryce Courtenay book! It wasn't very pleasant; the book ends with the main character perishing. Besta found me a new book to read, a Tom Clancy one! Only the writing's pretty small … bet either/both parents will bitch it's too for me; never fear, I'll just promise the light's always on before I read. Hope Tom Clancy's better than Bryce Courtenay!
• Think dad's taking me out to Sunnybank Oriental for late arvo tea/dinner coz then he wants to hear some talk given @ church by Pastor Chris' dad ... I'm planning to bring my mobile and play Candy Crush like games. XD
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
