blogger, I feel that I am doing you a disservice if I do not recommend you to buy Rob Dougan's cd, Furious Angels, as quickly as possible. It is techno rock, with a full orchestra. Simply beautiful. Anyway, today was very busy. I bought Malachy two books, a bible story picture book with cardboard pages, and a father-son bible story book for Charles to read to him. [laughs] Yes, I know, but it's still there. At the church party, we wrapped presents for kids in a poor parish (I think), I don't know. Then a friend of mine, Kristin, whom I have known forever by face but never met until we were both pushed toward youth ministry stuff by Charlie (though she, at school, has been doing it more than I have here), Kristin and I went to see A Series of Unfortunate Events, but discovered it's not out yet, so saw National Treasure instead. good movie. I would put it in the same category as Pirates of the Caribbean; exciting and fun but shallow, well-enough written and well made, worth renting. now I need to sleep, dear blogger. I am very cold, and very mellow, and very sleepy.
