Just got back from a weekend in ABQ. Colette's great-grandfather passed away; we went to the mass this morning. It was really different from other masses I've been to, but similar at the same time. I knew all of the prayers, when to sit and kneel and stand, etc., but it still felt really different. The church is beautiful, it's about 300 or so years old.
I'm in Madison now, she's not coming home until tomorrow. I feel bad leaving her there, I should have stayed for another day. I love her family and feel really accepted by them, it feels like home there.
On another note, I'm exhausted, and will need to bust my ass this week, but I'm really glad that I went. I got a chance to work on my SoP today, I felt all business-like typing away on my laptop while I was on the plane. (And...I'm not at home, I'm at the library checking email etc. because I stopped here to pick up the keys...and had a ton of emails to get back to...argh.)
