An Interruption for Minor Panic...

Aaah! Latin Midterm tomorrow!

Aaah! Metcalf Applications due Monday!

With any luck, dinner with Worthen this evening will provide the devil-may-care attitude I need in order to be able to relax enough to concentrate.

Happy Feast of the Presentation! The authors of The Bad Catholic's Guide to Good Living write, "attend your local parish's lavish celebration of this feast, which is sure to include a solemn procession, the formal blessing of candles, and polyphonic choral renditions of traditional chants such as "Adorna thalamum tuum, Sion." Bring along your groundhog to have him blessed."

Shoot! I forgot to get some candles! And a groundhog!

(While typing, I realized that today is a proper feast day for Ian and Ancona, the little pyromaniacs.)

  • Funny thing was, my local parish included just that...

    Though Adorna Thalamum Sion was chanted rather than sung as a motet...

  • Did you take your groundhog to be blessed?

    ... I want a groundhog. And to be in Wales.

    ... With my groundhog.
