Incarnation Carnivorousness

2011-03-25T06:52:00.000-07:00

This year, I gave up meat for Lent. As it is Friday, Church law would normally require abstinance from meat anyway. However, today is the Solemnity of the Annunciation, and on solemnities we are not bound by the law of abstinance. It also seems appropriate to suspend my personal fast to celebrate the Incarnation. Since today we celebrate the moment that God took on flesh, I think it proper that some sort of flesh be involved in our commemoration of it. So at lunch today, I intend to order a meat dish.

The question is, which meat would be most appropriate? I'm leaning toward beef, mainly because I could never associate Christ with a chicken, and it would feel tacky to celebrate this Jewish rabbi by eating pork. I don't think they serve lamb at Patrick's.

Waiting for the Baby to Be Still

2007-09-08T21:15:00.001-07:00

So I'm in Michael's room, trying to put him to bed. He's in one of those moods where he's decided he's just not going to settle down. I find the easiest thing to do in these situations is to just let him down on the floor and just wait for him to collapse. He has already tried to prolong the inevitible by leaving the room (when did he figure out how to open the door?), but my good baby listened to my plea and closed it again.

Oh, look. He's suddenly stopped and is lying still. Time to scoop him up and gently deposit the little sweetie in his crib.

E-mail Posting Attempt #3

I only just discovered that I had mis-typed my secret e-mail address in my address book. Perhaps now the posting will work.

So I'm sending this from my phone. This is one of my all-time favorite pictures of my daughter.

I'm just setting this up so I can play with the settings.

Who knows, though? I may come back here since Yahoo doesn't seem to want to allow comments from people without Yahoo profiles.
