on being driven out
I am, admittedly, a baby in the pro-life movement. I’ve said it many times before. I am a Democrat. In this election I find I am faced with a choice between a man I find vile, reprehensible, and sketchy, and a man whose ideas are tarnished by his association with things I cannot support. It’s [...]
Oldie-but-goodie Nameless Post: Christian Surfing

7 quick takes 12 (My Siblings)
It’s Friday, and I hope for your sake that I’m the only one with that song stuck in my head. Anyway, as per usual, Friday means it’s time for 7 Quick Takes, hosted by the lovely Jen over at Conversion Diary! After my last 7 Quick Takes (The Power of Positive Thinking) post, this last [...]
7 quick takes 11 (The Power of Positive Thinking Edition)
Friday means it’s time for 7 Quick Takes, hosted by the lovely Jen over at Conversion Diary! It’s been a rough week for me. I’ve written about the dr’s appt (sorry about all that whining) and it seems like that was a trigger that tipped my stupid system toward a deep lethargic low. And, as [...]
7 Quick Takes 10
My God, I’ve been doing 7 Quick Takes for 10 weeks. You know what else I could have done in this time, if I was sticking to things? I could be back in my old jeans, for one thing. Well, I guess that does it. By 7 Quick Takes 20 I’m going to be back [...]

Don’t let them Muddy the Waters
If you have never been to the Holocaust Museum in DC, you should go. I’ve heard the one in LA is great, too – but I’ve never been, so I can’t speak to that. The one in DC is enormously powerful, and is simultaneously awesome and awful, wonderfully terrible, brutally beautiful. Let me be clear, [...]
Reverence before the Lord God of all Creation
I was privileged to grow up in what I think is the most beautiful church on earth. Here, let me show you: Right? I’ll show you the mural behind the altar later. But for now, see the side altars? The nun’s gallery? When I was little there was still an altar rail – though nobody received communion [...]
So sue me.
Well, just before the office christmas party, one of the Big Bosses sent some of the PR people (not me) out to pick up some liquor. So there’s that. At one, the party started, by quarter to two the Big Bosses were sending us on our way and wishing us a very merry Christmahannukwanzivus. Several of [...]
