War!



Its not too often a pup like Leo catches the first known gray squirrel in our residence (of course, with some help). But he did! It all started around Thanksgiving (cant remember when exactly)when I heard some crazy barking, I go and look out the window and there is Leo barking at a bush, so I thought to myself "what kind of dog barks at a bush?" but then I saw a gray squirrel sneak right behind him! It seemed fat and lazy because it was going slow, but Leo didn't notice; I went outside, pulled Leo over the opposite way (which he didn't enjoy, thinking the squirrel was somewhere else). In the end, he saw the squirrel and chased it back and forth across the house (scaring the cats who got in his way and later got jealous) and he finally caught the squirrel, which he enjoys unto this day *blegh*.

Fog

Drifting silently, the fog wafted in
By the awesome power, of the man-made wind
It came in swift, it came in strong
It was hard to see beyond three feet long
A shuffle was heard, but nothing was seen
Save for that white mist that hid the scene
It made my eyes water, my throat made a start
It reminded me of the time someone ripped cheese apart
I knew there was silence when those torches came in
Bringing light to the darkness within
I could sit by the lake, I could take a morning jog
But nothing has ever been worse than that St. Stephen's Fog

Fruitloops



(Top: St. Francis of Assisi's Chapel. Bottom: A castle in Assisi, sorry for not more pictures, its not letting me do any pictures but these two and another...)
I served A2 for Vespers the other day (Sunday, to be exact), and it was weird... I think because I messed up a bit (only a bit), but I was told by Paul that I did good for my first time. But then I got to thinking, aren't all first-timers good on their first try??? Then I got to thinking again, if all first-timers, no matter how bad, are told they are good for their first time, how low is the expectancy for first-timers??? This is too much for me...
