It was too cold to leave my bed...
Then I fell asleep. :(
UST party this weekend. Marna and Dr. L are going. Marna's been asking me if I'm going. "I don't want to go..." She asked who was coming. I said my "aunt and uncles". I only have 1 uncle... Anyway, she then asked if they all went to UST. I don't think Tito Abe did, but I said yes, but not all medicine. Nutrition, Chem E, Pharmacy. "Oh they must be smart and well off." So I told this to Mom who immediately called Tita E... Or it could have been Aunt Pitat. Either way... Mom said it really wasn't expensive, at least when she went. Whoever she was talking to, I guess it was Tita E... B/c they focused more on the smart thing / being because the C family.
Afterward to be "nice" I told Mom I was going to confession tomorrow (today?) but I also needed to buy stuff at Harmons. So chop chop people! She then said she wanted to go to confession too, but is afraid the priest will get annoyed / not every little thing is a sin. Uh... Then to not sound scrupulous, I basically told Mom the reason I was in mortal sin. She then talked of what she used to do in Medical school. She basically dropped it on her Indian class mates! I on the other hand... Had no one but Gloria and... I can't dump it on her. On the other hand, I'd feel more comfortable and it's more appropriate to inform my superior, AKA Marna. But... I think she was out.
Anyway, Mom said I was going to this party and... I hate going to these parties! But I'll suck it up. SANCTIFICATION!!! I swear... Part of my reason for life is sanctifying my Mother...
I got excited when I saw this week's CSYSK podcast title, Twitch Upon A Thread. But then the subtitle, "He's on the move" freaked me out, thinking someone else was leaving. No one is! But HAHAHA! Fr. Nathan called Jesus a creeper! OMG!!! Fr. John was at the Rockies game that the 7 Line was in attendance! 5 mins in he mentions Mets fans coming out of the woodwork in all their gear. Fr. Nathan then said they didn't come out during the bad years, but we've got a pretty good team now. I then post this on Twitter... And... It seems like only #CatholicTwitter cares about my cross fandom posts. Anyway... Good ep. It was about the parable of the lost sheep / coin / Prodigal son. And as with Chesterton / Brideshead Revisited it's about God's grace and for some people, like Fr. John who had a massive conversion experience and Fr. Nathan just a twitch and they were reeled in.

I dunno why... But I felt compelled to fast from music today. I mean... It automatically turned on in the car this AM and I accidentally heard some song on Instagram. But I was listening to Podcast all day. But at the same time I had urges to listen to songs instead, which was weird b/c... For the longest time I haven't been listening to music. I did have Keane stuck in my head though. That doesn't count, right? Lol.
I posted a St. Francis pic / greeting for the family pets on Family chat and it got "lost" in Bday greetings for Paul. 7500centfish then named me her pets Godparent. Next year if you come home, it's a Sunday...

I think I need to obsess over Tim Rice-Oxley again.
Thinking of getting a frankincense candle. I was previous thinking of getting like incense sticks, but... Anyway, I wondered if... Like liturgical candles do the have to be a certain composite of beeswax? Then... Would it be weird to have a scented candle blessed? Anyway, I cleaned off my side table. Now I feel like I need to make it a dedicated prayer space. I need like a statue or something to put there. Right now it's just got my books and a coffee cup.
Prodigal Son. As I said (?) not as bad as Evil. But OMG! Stupidest scene! So they go to interview this suspect and they basically realize he's the victims illegitimate son and he poisoned his own family as he was being interviewed so they all collapse. But then the stupidest thing! The profiler is commanding the cop on what to do on advanced cardiac life support! Like... She screams she has med kit in the car, but the profiler is telling the cop how to use it!?! So stupid.
Evil. I think I'm dropping this show. The thing that did me in was... This episode was about a supposed miracle. Girl "dies" and prior to autopsy (why would you cut into someone's face!?!) she wakes up on the table. Anyway... The main chick is like do you believe in miracles? Talks of her youngest daughter who has a heart defect and something about when she hits a certain age she has a 50/50 percent chance of dying. She then said why pray if prayer doesn't work. And the "Seminarian's" response is "I don't know, but I'll pray for your daughter." Ugh... Such a let down! I then tweeted get a Catholic advisor. Someone responded with they do have an advisor. Either they're not good or the writers are botching it up. The purpose of prayer, via Fr. Mike Schmitz. (Jesus asked us to, it does change things and it's a relationship with God.) Lol. But other than that... It seems to use the cliches and I guess... In media outside of the pedophilia and scandal, people think "occult" when it comes to Catholicism, ex. Horror movies. The closing scene... They had the dude jog / pray as he jogged, but he stops outside a... Do they show it's a strip club or I just read that into it? Anyway, he turns around in the beginning of the ep but then goes in at then end. And... What kind of Gay bar mixes men and women!?! None that I've been to! Anyway... He walks up to a guy and you get homosexual vibes, when... I think the show established he's straight. Either way. They go off together but it turns out to be for hallucinogenics b/c he used to have visions, but now I guess he needs drugs to see "God". I get you need complicated characters, but... I dunno it's just bad on all sorts of levels.
