Green Room - Week 4 Day 4

[kithan.livejournal.com]

Good morning!  How is everyone today?

LJ Idol Tech Support wishes she could have taken a sick day.  (Stupid cold.)  Our fabulous host was running late this morning and asked me to post the Green Room.  Go me!

What's going on in your lives today?  I've seen a lot of buzz about the debate last night.  I didn't get to watch because I was at my other job.

What's going on in my life today?  Well, I arranged to work last night so that I could have tonight off so I can watch the Packers beat play the Cowboys tonight.  (Please, for the love of football, let them win...  please?)  I've been extra careful not to talk smack when it comes to my beloved boys in Green & Gold this year.  I don't want to run the chance of jinxing anything.  Should be a good game though!  I'm heading to a bar to watch it since it's on the NFL Network.  Cheese curds will be eaten.  Oh yes.  Cheese curds will be eaten.

That's about it for me.  I'm off to update my poll tables with the latest entries.

Speaking of entries...   post them here!  The deadline is coming up fast!  Don't make me post your name tomorrow morning.  :-)

Cults. A subject near and dear to my heart, haha.

And yes, life is infinitely better with each moment spent consuming chocolate and snuggling with a kitty!

I don't know how far back you've read in my journal, but I attended/worked in a Christian cult for many years. I'm really interested in the "way out" cults, the ones that freak EVERYONE out, and also how mainstream, socially acceptable Christian groups act very culty without everyone noticing.

I don't think I've read back quite that far yet, but you've got me intrigued, I must say. I'll have to give it a gander!!!

Wow... scary. Glad you didn't end up in black Nike's and a purple shroud. :-)

The Doomsday Cults have always interested me... especially in how they manage to stay together once doomsday has come and gone and we're all still here. A class I'm taking right now actually discussed that a bit. It's fascinating. The whole mentality of cult leaders as well as cult members is just bizarre, compelling and fascinating.

and also how mainstream, socially acceptable Christian groups act very culty without everyone noticing.

I agree totally. Or how groups like Scientologists, who everybody knows is a cult, gain such popularity.

I'm glad you made your way out of the cult.

So yeah, they're near and dear to my heart. *giggle* I'm certainly a "special" kind of girl!

Glad you made it out, by the way.
