Complines

After the Gnostic Mass Sunday, I had time to come home and rest. Hub and I decided to have marital relations, and it was one of those times when you feel like you are filled with brilliant light that shines through you like you're a pane of glass. That is, until the decorative 6 inch calcite sphere sitting on your headboard decides to roll off and bonk you on the head. Right when he's crossing the finish line, so to speak. His expression was the very definition of conflict.

Then some lazing around, and Cathy and Dave invited me to Complines at St.David's.( Read more... )

In Finland's Footsteps

Life in Finland, one of the world's best functioning welfare states and least known success stories, can be complicated. Consider the dilemma confronting parents looking for day care for a 4-year-old daughter in Kuhmo, a town of 10,000 near the middle of the country.( Finland, Finland, Finland )

I've been thinking since I woke up "gotta go to the lake today." I haven't been in three weeks now, and I feel like I ought to go. I've been dragging ass, resisting, and so suddenly it dawned on me- I don't want to go to the fucking lake today. So I won't. So there.

I'm enjoying not going to the lake. I went to Academy and bought a new pair of goggles since my old ones done broke, and my old old ones are too scratched up to see out of. I have a job, why not get some new ones? And they were on sale, along with those gigantic beach towels for under $5.

I've been sitting here in my bathing suit polishing off a little lunch before I take a swim, and discovered a lovely community through a friend of a friend's friend page called show_your_cock, which is just like baaaaabyanimals yet subtly different. I don't think I will friend it, though, because I would go to my friend's page at work to see that cute pic of the hippo and the turtle for the umpteenth time, and there would be all that cock and I would get in trouble.
