Ok, so a randomly typo'd "time" became "tome" in a thing I wrote up really fast. I spotted it right after posting (it was my DevArt journal) and went in to edit it, and not for the first time flashed back to something I was exposed to in parts at school ( Read more... )

..When I was told off by the angry principal for being evil spawn of evil people...I *think* that Patrick Flores was still indeed Archbishop of the diocese ( Read more... )

Sooo. Um. I'm probably going to step on a LOT of toes here. I'm also going to recap over things that a lot of long-time friends of mine already know ( Read more... )

I skimmed through the old Catholic reader I found, and mentioned earlier, where the Wholesome White Family moves from the city to An Idyllic (White) Small Town in simplistic sentences ( Read more... )

Thanks to conversations about "Dick and Jane" style children's readers with a friend, I found the old 1940's-50's primary reader I saved from the dumpster at my first Catholic school. The copy I have is from the second or so printing in 1952 ( Read more... )

I may have bitched about this on LJ closer to when it happened. I don't know, I'm not going to try checking, because I don't remember what month or year this actually happened, whether or not I had LJ at the time, and if there was LJ at the time, tags were not available, so I can't just look for something along the lines of "Being a temp sucks".

( This is gonna be looong. )
