Skinny jeans.
I find it enormously difficult to find jeans (or any pants for that matter) that fit me properly. That is, I can actually button them up and they're not really gapey or strangling me. I got these yesterday and they're pretty awesome. http://www.supre.com.au/DENIM-STRETCH-ANKLE-JEGGINGS.aspx?p84667 can't quite figure out how to put a photo in here but maybe I'll take one of myself.

puffy eye
So I woke up rubbing and scratching my eye cos it was itchy. Then discovered it was a little larger than normal. Oh shit. I've recently had some trouble with slightly puffy eyes but this is proper allergic reaction puffy eye.And of course I don't know what caused it so now I have to try and figure that one out. I was messing around with makeup last night and put on all different types of eyeshadows and shit and some false lashes so I have a lot of things to pick from. The most annoying thing is I've used them all before and despite having very sensitive skin I've never actually had a problem until recently. My number one suspect at the moment is this rosemary oil I was using to remove my makeup (smart I know but makeup remover irritates my skin and moisturiser doesn't get everything off). I have also had a reaction to this (Hamilton's) skin oil that has like 3 ingredients and is made for sensitive eczema skin. Made my legs break out in horrible itchy bumpy rash! So my conclusion is that it has to be one of those 3 ingredients.
So I decided to google makeup allergies. Apparently many people have reactions to blue and red dyes. But like I said I've never had this problem before so I'm just going to stop using massage oil as makeup remover and see how I go.
I've had a lot of issues with my skin since forever. I remember having these little itchy dry patches on my arms when I was a kid and my mum thought they were ring worm. Then when I started using anti pimple stuff, many Clean and clear and Clearasil products later I realised that they were just drying the shit out of my skin and giving me a terrible rash around my chin which I still struggle with today. Now I can't even fathom how I used them at all now, considering my skin care regime consists of Nivea cream cleanser and whatever moisturiser I happen to be using and if I deviate from this I get very flaky and rashy and itchy. I can't use any moisturisers that smell nice. They all make my legs itchy. I also find it difficult to use any shampoo and conditioner other than Garnier anti dandruff stuff. All other anti-dandruff brands make my scalp itch, even the Head and Shoulders one that claimed it was 'soothing', ended up being one of the worst.
Even with all my atopic predisposition to the world I have yet to actually be allergic to something but I'm pretty sure that's what my eye is doing right now. Worst reaction ever. So I shall sit here with my steroid cream and ice pack today and hope that it has gone down a bit by tomorrow!

OK nowhere in Matthew does it say *three* wise men came to worship Jesus when he was born. Where did this come from!? maybe just because there were 3 gifts?
Jesus grew up real quick. He's clearly old enough to speak n shit when he meets Johnnie the baptist. I would think he'd still be pretty young. He's always depicted as having a beard n shit n the part where he stands on the water and God comes through the clouds and says Jesus is his son. hmm.
When Jesus is talking to some guys in a cave.
"Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" - Matthew 5:10. Christians should take more notice of this one!
Why are they called "the ten commandments"? Assuming this is the part where they got them from, there are a hell of a lot more than 10 and nowhere does it say Jesus commanded them, it says he *taught* his disciples

So my first thoughts about reading the bible are that I need to try and push all my knowledge of the bible out of my head, to try and approach it unbiased. Then a Christmas carol popped into my head, which I assume is also based upon stories in the bible. Then it occurred to me that it is an appropriate time for me to be reading the bible and if I could be fucked perhaps have it read by xmas so I can entertain the family with fun bible facts!
OK so maybe this is just going to be a running commentary.
Joseph put Mary away privily because she was already preggers when they got married. Was it frowned upon to be preggers before getting married back then? I thought this was something Jesus introduced. Praps it was a value that was already around at the time.

The good book.
I have a renewed desire to read the bible cover to cover. Attempted to start with old testament a few years back and failed miserably after finishing the first part of genesis. As anyone who has read the OT will know it is full of pointless boring detail that makes it very very difficult to read. So, today I'm starting to read the new testament. For the most part I want to read the bible to gain knowledge (obviously). I want to have this knowledge so I have a leg to stand on when trying to have discussions with people about its content. Of course I'm an atheist and don't believe the bible is the word of god or any of that BS but I like to debate people for sport. One day I would like to have the patience and knowledge to be able to help people understand atheism but for now I need to gather more knowledge and through the discussions I do have I only hope to make religious people aware that there are other ways of thinking and hopefully make them question any part of their beliefs.
GBU. hah.
Oh and watch this series from the beginning, it's indescribably fantastic.
