I have to confess something to you. I dread going to church now because I cannot stand the Pastor. (gasp) Go ahead, blast me off the globe I don't care. I have to say it. It's a long long long story but it comes down to a few key things:

1. he actually lies and gets caught. not just once but over and over and over
2. he doesn't like outspoken women (clears throat) and makes their lives a living hell when they disagree
3. he is lazy and does everything he can to get out of actually fulfilling his responsibilities
4. he pits church members against each other
5. he's not sure if he was ever actually "called" to ministry

So stop whining and go to another church you say. No. Because this is the church I grew up in and it's a United Methodist church so pastors don't stay a lifetime and HE'S FINALLY LEAVING IN JUNE AFTER 3 LONG YEARS. I admit I have considered it, but when it comes down to it, why should I let him drive me out of my church? Yes I have let him irritate the living crud out of me for 3 years and suck the joy right out of my church involvement but I will actually party the day he moves out of the Parsonage. I have been through every emotion available regarding this and re: forgiveness - I keep doing it over and over every time he does something else underhanded and sneaky. Yes I know when it all comes down it's just the horned dude keeping me down but I have struggled with this for so long and it's such a horribly complicated issue with alot of twists and turns I am just at the point that I am waiting for him to be gone.

So now you hate me and will de-blogroll me and spread ugly internet rumors about me but really I'm all about honesty with you my darling amigos.

Now that I have that off my chest, I don't feel so bad telling some other things about me that may make you cringe with disgust and never come back to my blog. But just to make it fun I will add some things that aren't true and make you guess which ones are real.

True or False? (Note: Please do not actually write T or F on your computer screen. Unless you really want to and/or you have an erasable marker.)
