Over four-fiths of stigmatics are women, they who love their God so much that they bear his wounds for him.

At the service today, at the visitation last night, at the same last week, there was not a single woman in what could be termed comfortable , practical shoes. A woman using a walker, women over 80, sisters and mothers who would spend the ( Read more... )

 So. gabbygrl and I went to see "Dracula: The Ballet" tonight. We also agreed (fine, I agreed for us, and she was a good sport) to write a review for the school paper. Unfortunately school papers have silly things like word limits, that live journal lacks. So the complete version is this:

Expect the Unexpected
Dracula at the Ballet

We did not really know what ( Read more... )

So I talked in my last post about science majors.

Now. This was unfair. As there are many different types of science majors. And they are all different (I mean the same, but different).

I wonder now, if you would blame me.

If I stayed at school this weekend. If I didn't get the blood tests. If I didn't get more bad news.

I wonder now, if you would forgive me

Per the not so quiet request of gabbygrl  I called my doctor on Friday. He called me back today, which, I guess, is the benefit of having a workaholic with his own practice, extended weekend hours.

He asked me a few questions. I answered a few questions, being actually completely and totally honest. And he ended the conversation with.

"Well. We knew this ( Read more... )

I am used to being angry. I am angry quite often. Rarely for an extended period of time. But I get angry. And I know how to deal with it. Up to a certain point I even find it comforting.

I am not angry now.

Instead there is a disappointment that saturates every part of me.  This sadness that I am not entirely accustomed to. And I feel like a woman ( Read more... )

Mi's lj claims that she is made of forgiveness.
