Actually, on the modern spectrum it mentioned mostly one American movement. The one that is now the Advent of the seventh something.
But I didn't link the article to discuss it, I was just stating that I was reading it linked to the talk on the End of Times that had come up. Now I'd like a nice cup of tea. I think I'll get wild and have green tea with mandarin. Anyone else?

I could use some tea. I'm about to turn in an application for a Half Price bookstore I found out is hiring and I'm kind of nervous. I REALLY hope they need me. Please don't make me have to start working fastfood .

Hehe I avoid fastfood restaurants like the plague!
There's always something else. My summerjobs (i've not always worked in the summers.. spoiled) first as a newspaperboy (15yo), a kiosk on the beach (17yo), a retail-store for electronics (20yo), a flower store (21yo, seriously! lots of old ladies bought flowers there) and latest is serving at a cafe this summer (22yo), which so far has been fun. I've yet to work in a bookstore..

Hello, back again.
I've spent a perfect early summer day in beautiful gardens. Now I have to prepare dinner.

All kinds, but what would you like? One of those pink berry types, or black tea with essence, or strawberry leaf?

I worked fastfood for two months when I was 16, and quit because I was being harassed and my stupid boss wouldn't do anything about it. Also because I had an allergic reaction to the cleaning chemicals and lost feeling in all of my fingers because I got a really thick callus that even letting my hands marinate overnight in vasaline every night wouldn't take away till I quit and stopped having to mess with the chemicals.
It sucked . |

That does suck. Hope you get the book job. And books rule! And fresh books have a nice scent to them
Obama 4 delegates away from the nomination I'm guessing we're only an hour or so away from history being made..

I worked fast food for a year and finally quit because the repetition of the same tasks and phrases over and over again, sometimes without a pause in customers for entire eight hour shifts, the coming home covered in shake syrup and smelling of french fry grease and the incessant stupidity of the customers, the bad co-workers and the muzak were stealing my sanity and my energy. Never mind the effects of being constantly on one's feet and moving in a crowded space, of washing one's hands under bleach-water at least once every half an hour or of working near the grill in summer while on medication with dehydration as a primary side effect... I think your calluses still take the cake for sheer nastiness though. No more fast food for us.

How bad are they, Curufin? Lots of close lightning? We had a prety big TS here a few days ago.
