Tonight I preformed in a comedy show and after the show a man wanted to have his picture taken with me. He put his strong arm around me. He said I was great in the show- very funny. Then he said, kind of embarrassed. “I told my friends that you were Mrs. Tidwiddel… like you had my last name… like I was going to marry you.”
It happened so fast that I didn’t truly respond to what he said. I just kind of said, “Oh… thank you!”
It was kind of weird, and he might have been a little drunk, but it was also really nice. And its been a long while since I had a strong arm draped around my shoulders. Thank you embarrassed, possibly drunk man! You really made me smile on my drive home.

Internet search of the day: “Is There Life After Death?”
I’ve found interesting arguments on both sides, but what I’m really hoping to find is some arguments that say there IS life after death that I could find plausible.
In The Case for Life After Death, Professor Peter Kreeft lays out what he says are logical arguments for life after death. I did find it a little comforting, but the only thing I could even partially agree with was his conclusion about a certain set of arguments:
…each concludes not with the simple proposition ‘we are immortal’ but with the disjunctive proposition ‘either reality is absurd or we are immortal.’
…a number of researchers are finding that children who are highly sensitive and raised in a stressful environment are prone to anxiety and depression, which are the components of neuroticism, and to shyness, which is sometimes the cause of introversion. However, when raised in an enriched, supportive environment, those with this “differential susceptibility” are actually happier, healthier, and more socially skilled than others. In both outcomes, it seems that sensitive children are paying more attention to subtle cues indicating, for better or worse, what others are thinking and feeling.
This is facinating, and I can totally relate. I am more sensitive to chemicals like caffiene, I need quite a bit of time alone to process things, and I do really notice the emotional atmosphere of a place and am affected by it. hmmm… very interesting. There has also been research done about people who have low boundaries vs high boundaries and I wonder if this “differential susceptibility” is related to that as well?
I know I’m a little behind the times, but I just finished Battlestar Gallactica. Its such a good series!!! I was really worried that I wouldn’t like the ending, because, one of my friends didn’t like it. I made up my own ending just in case.
Below are my reactions to the real ending. And my made-up ending.
Warning: Spoilers ahead.
If you haven’t watched the series, PLEASE don’t read this. Believe me, you have a really good series ahead of you. Start from the very beginning..
The new design is simpler and more fitting with the content on A.T. I’m still working out a few kinks, but hopefully this will be a great way for you to see all the great music and other content on Authentic Threads.
Still to do:
Get related posts off of my front page!! The weird thing is, I don’t have a related posts plug-in. Why are they there? Too messy!! I only want related posts to show up on post pages.
I added a new favicon, but its only showing up the home page right now. I want it to show up on all the pages.
I’d like to have a YouTube player. Is there something like that? It would give me the option to autoplay all YouTube videos on a page. I’d like this so that someone could listen to all the music in my music tab without having to stand next to the computer. Hmmm… maybe there is some other type of player that would work.
When I get the “Related Posts” link to go away, I want to show a summarry of my Aside Links.
Add dates in- at the top of the posts on the front page, on the bottom of individual post pages.
Our Week O’ Comedy begins with Ellen Degeneres. There are some great moments in this special called Here and Now! If you only have time to watch one clip, I reccomend Clip #4! HILARIOUS!
