Fighting the Current

::sigh::

My little old lady nextdoor is home. She's doing much better. It's very good news.

::sigh::

Our priest passed away a few hours ago, maybe more recent than that. He had been doing a little better, but nothing is ever certain. Say a prayer or something, please.

It's a small parish. I wouldn't want to see it close.

Discovered the rectory was robbed during Sunday night mass.

There has been a sixth, maybe a seventh. I'm going to have to stop counting soon. Too much has happened around here recently. So much for things coming in threes.

The war goes on. I am never quite sure of my position, but I lean more towards anti-war. Bush was picking a fight. But Saddam must be put out of power. I don't support military action, but at the same time I know that negotiations only work when both sides are willing to talk. I want to protest, but I know that protesting will do nothing when the president is set on a war. Protesting at this point will only prolong the war.

Countries always create more destructive weapons in order to avert war. When will they learn?...

Everyone should read Seuss's The Butter Battle Book. Especially world leaders. Dr. Seuss didn't just write his books for children... Especially his books that center around arms races...

This past quarter hasn't been the best grade-wise. I've managed to keep some grades up, but others are hopeless for right now.

The day went quickly.

I am avoiding the TV. I hate sensationalism with a passion.

I can see the best and the worst in almost every situation. I think I latch onto the worst so that I am rarely disappointed...

Restless and distant. Great.
