When the Cat's Away . . .

Mthr. M-G is out of town for the 188th Diocesan Convention for the Diocese of Georgia. Our Bishop was only consecrated two weeks ago so there was very little controversy. (Give him a year.) The Phoebster and I will be reunited with Mthr. M-G tomorrow night.

In the meantime, we're having a Star Wars marathon.

Tonight it's the prequels. Say what you want. I like them. Yes, they're flawed, but so are the originals. YES, THEY ARE! Take off your childhood blinders and see the original trilogy for what it is.

I'm a little sick of Star Wars "fans" who haven't liked anything since Empire in 1980. That means these people are claiming to be fans of something they only like 33% of. Maybe it's my math-teacher mentality, but that means they fail as fans. Even on a 10-point scale 33% is a miserable score.

Now that I've properly stirred the hornet nest, I'll retreat to the kitchen and enjoy a slice of fresh-baked bread.

Egg on My Face

I am the worst uncle ever.

As it was kindly pointed out to me, another HUGE event since the end of my Advent deal was the birth of my new niece.

Here she is with her big sister. My brother is extremely proud of his growing family. He should be. Just look at his lovely daughters!

I can't wait to meet her face to face.

Love from Georgia, guys!

Still Here

The last quarter of 2009 saw me as a very busy blogger indeed. Forgive me for taking a six week vacation.

I hope you enjoyed the webcomic in December. I know I liked it.

Since my last entry; we visited Wisconsin, I got a new laptop, started my second quarter teaching at SGTC, the family visited us, and Phoebe was baptised.

I promise not to repeat last year's back-end heavy posting schedule. I'll try to get something here at least once a week .

Sorry this is so short, but I really don't have a topic. I'm going to get started on a face lift for the site.
