verycleanindeed has quieted my worries about my plane ticket (yes, plane ticket, now, as the bus costs more than it used to, eff you oil companies). Quieted big time. I love her. She is the best human on this earth (besides my mom, and maybe Sofy, *wink*).
The loan thing was just the thing that kinda broke me after all the stress. I'm better now.
Work is work. 8 hours a day now. Which is fine with me, I was productive today, huzzah.
In other news... people who are intolerant of other religions/viewpoints really piss me the fuck off. I'm in a swapping group on yahoo (though I will soon not be, as I am fucking leave that noise), and the owner said that people are not allowed to send 'wiccan' things because 1) she is a christian and 2) she does not believe wicca is a religion. As someone who was exploring different paths (including wicca), I'm completely baffled. Because wtf is exactly 'wiccan'? And hello, swappers send candles all the time, and those dude? Are totally wiccan. Glitter? Can be wiccan (decorate yon altar!). I'm just... peeved as all get out.
How can a true christian... deny other people their own beliefs? Christ would so not have been down with that. He was about love and variety. It's the cocksucking asshole people in charge of Christianity who got all psycho and said "Difference is BAD. CONFORM." Ugh.
Other beliefs should enhance and bring to fruition your own beliefs. They should reaffirm. Not be something to run away from or deny.
This really sucks, man. I liked that group a lot, but I cannot sit by and participate with people who do that, and don't expect someone to argue (she said please take any comments off list... how fucking ridiculous, when her diatribe is on list, why the fuck can't a response be on it?). The girl is a nice girl. I don't dislike her, I just think this view of hers is ludicrous and offensive. And I'm American, so dammit, I can think that. And get the hell out of her group.
Ugh.
