I love my sister, but sometimes she doesn't have her head screwed on tight enough. So, she's babysitting two little girls for the last couple of weeks while she's at my mom's and her house. She expects them to sit and watch movies pretty much the whole time, at whenever I've come over. And then she gets mad when they get up, starts to play, or even talk.
Today, she starts bossing my mom and I around, saying we need to be good examples. And my mom was like, "I am?" She just doesn't understand that children need to do more then sit still. Especially if they are bored with the movie.

An acquaintance of mine that I have known for about 15 years tried having the "Jon you need to stop this monastic silliness and get a girlfriend" talk with me. If I could find a woman who was cool with never going out together, had zero interest in romance, and wouldn't care that I don't communicate or share my feelings, I might be down.
LOL. Some people are so nosy and over-eager to play match-maker. Bless their hearts.

I was just reading through the family forum - unfortunately there are many marriages breaking up over there 
. A response to one such post to one of the women advises "just let God be your husband right now."
Though I understand what is meant by this, I'm wondering what comparable advice would be given to a male going through such marital difficulties. Though God doesn't really have a gender in the way we think of it, he has revealed himself to us as God the Father, so I don't see "just let God be your wife right now" as appropriate. And despite the church being the "bride of Christ" I don't think the same advice of "just let God be your husband" fits either - it kind of sounds icky.
