What is going on in my world today? Special projects from boss on high. Lunch runs, work, work, work.

The cats were quite adorable this morning. It was a little on the chilly side, so they were quite cuddly with me. Sascha crawled up to lay against my tummy, as I was sleeping on my side. At this point, due to previous kitty-wrestling commotion, I was “sleeping”, as opposed to actually sleeping.

Back to the story, Sascha was snuggled up to my tummy. Then Max crawls over my back and slides onto Sascha’s back, rests his paws around Sascha’s shoulders and begins to groom him. Then Sascha groomed Max in return. During this chuckwagon o’ cuteness, one cat must have dared the other to a duel to the furry, wrestly death, for they began to wrestle further. It was all fun and games until Sascha got a foot hold on Max’s little testicles. At that point, Max let out a squeal. They continued to wrestle, and finally they did something that made me chuckle out loud, and it disrupted their play. Both stopped and stared at me with sobering gazes and then they went separate ways.

As I was getting out of bed this morning, I flipped back the sheet over Maximus, and then turned it back up once I was completely out of the bed. I stepped out of my room for a bit, but on return, I see this small sheet incident gave Max the realization that he could, in fact, crawl under my sheets. He was testing this theory out as I saw him stagger around under my burgundy Egyptian cotton goodies. It was cute, but now I have furlined sheets.

Well, Scarcrest and Reannon, since you brought this to my attention...

The Openly Gay Bishop made it in! Yeah! Not bad to get 62 out of 107 votes. However, religion should be completely tolerant, not just "tolerant by a small majority".

This next paragraph is a wee bit of a tangent, but it came to mind anyway.

This (tolerance/acceptance) reminds me of a story Ms. Tao told me about a sermon she listened to in Church. Yes, she was a devoted Catholic. The priest delivering the sermon was thickly Irish, and he began by telling the congregation that it was the anniversary of Roe v. Wade. The priest started off slowly, and his intent almost appeared to be tearing down Roe v. Wade, but suddenly he launched into the congregation saying that seemingly good Christians drove women to need Roe v. Wade because we shunned women who became pregnant out of wedlock, etc. Had we not been so quick to judge and opened our hearts and our homes to these women, so that they would not be unable to care for their as yet unborn children, we wouldn't need Roe v. Wade.

Anyway, I'm not sure I agree with everything the priest said. I still believe it is a woman's choice in the matter. But then again, we still shouldn't be so quick to ostracize people for their mistakes. Especially good, Anglican Christians.
