OK, don’t ask me why this whole subject is even going through my head, but did you ever listen to the lyrics of songs and think, “what were they thinking?”
I give you, Category: Slut Songs. Today’s entry: “All I Want To Do Is Make Love To You,” by Heart.
Look at the lyrics – this woman [...]

I was on my way back to the office after a court appearance this afternoon, when Elton John’s “Candle in the Wind” came on the radio.
It struck me that both Marilyn Monroe and Diana, Princess of Wales, were 36 years old when they died. Both died in August. Both died under suspicious circumstances. Both were [...]

Well, part of my recent mood swinging may indeed be hormonal….. I know. Just what you wanted to read right now. Sorry if you were eating – NOT!
What sucks is that my mother and my grandmother and my maternal aunt all had hysterectomies before they were my age. My grandmother is deceased anyway, [...]

The words to the song “How to Save a Life” have been running through my head all afternoon. Maybe if I give them another place to continue playing, I can think about the fourteen things I have to do this afternoon before I leave:

One of the things that annoys me about reading or listening to other people’s work is when I know I’m hearing a rehash of something they’ve done before. It isn’t (necessarily) that it wasn’t that good the first time, or that the subject isn’t worthwhile. It’s that if you’re going to present something to someone [...]
Update on Joy

Just got a call from my mom. There is a family in their church that has recently started attending. They have seven kids and not a lot of money. The short version is that the home they had been living in (I think they were renting) got sold out from under them, so they had [...]

Kim, at Hiraeth, has this “quote of the week” on her sidebar:
Grace has always seemed like an insult to the natural man. It cannot seem other wise since its principle design is to mortify the pride of man and display the glory of Christ. The grace of God which brings salvation does not look for [...]
What am I here for?

After all of the yammering about this or that event, the really troublesome issue comes out to this: If all of the things I thought my life was going to be and involve turn out to be wrong turns or detours, what really is my purpose?
Catechism’s answer: The chief end of man is to glorify [...]
Still shell-shocked

Today is a little better. I’m still sad, and I’m still a little hurt, but I feel like I have a little more perspective on it. It could just be that the family decided they wanted the service to be just for family. I can understand that – they might also include anyone at her [...]
