Apr. 22nd, 2007 11:58 pmMy sister seems to enjoy telling people that I'm engaged. Which wouldn't be so bad if she would do this by saying "Margy show the ring", but she apparently prefers to grab my hand and flail it at people while I'm talking to someone else. :p
She tells me the news almost gave my high school drama teacher a heart attack. :p I figure that she either thinks I graduated from RHS more recently than I did or she thinks of me as vaguely asexual. :p The first is of course that whole thing about people not aging when they're away from you. As for the second, I never did have a boyfriend in highschool, and she probably remembers me as the rather irritated third wheel to a PDA prone couple. Once she recovered she was very excited to discover it was geek love. :p (This is the teacher I corrupted into reading science fiction. :p)
Church today was a mix of ups and downs. There was a baptism, which is always exciting. One of the babies had the whole crying out against injustice thing DOWN. We also got the fun of pausing in the rite for "Wait, I already did that one, didn't I?" The homily was a whole thing about living in the world of ego and being alone. But it kinda fell apart when it hit Peter putting clothes on because he was naked. "When all else fails, fish buck naked?" :p
The big down was that Father Jeff has decided to leave the priesthood. While I certainly understand his wanting the chance to have a family, it does make me sad, since he's an absolutely fantastic priest.
