  • St. Andrew

    Yesterday in Ballet, which, by the way, I still utterly adore, we were doing jumps for the first time in a long time. (First! And first! And first! And first! Changement, Changement, Changement, Changement! Echappe, P…
  • St. Paramon & Co.

    Once upon a time, I had a cabinet with a wine rack and holders for wine glasses, etc. in my kitchen. It was mounted on the chimney next to the refrigerator, right behind the chair at the kitchen table where I sit to do…
  • St. Conrad

    It's funny - I can remember the first time I got a blister from dancing. I can also remember the first time I got dumped on my butt (his jerky lead + my balance issues + trying to Lindy to a song that was much too fast …
  • Bl. Miguel Pro

    I think I had one of the funnest Thanksgivings I've ever had this year. I brought Johnsy home with me. It was wonderful. She picked on my little brothers, listened attentively to my dad, and talked beadwork with Maria…
  • St. Edmund

    Ever have one of those days where everything seems to happen at once? Yesterday was kinda like that for me. I had come home late and tired the night before from dancing all weekend, and then that morning I had to be up…
  • St. Rose Phillipine Duchesne

    You know what's wonderful? When you go to a Lindy Exchange (like, say, PittStop 7) where absolutely no one knows you from Eve. You see a guy dancing, and whatever he's doing looks good enough that you decide to ask him…
  • St. Albert the Great

    Last night Baby was at dancing for the first time in a while. He was all excited because, he told me, he had been "recognized." He was dancing with his girlfriend, a lovely young woman with very curly dark hair and gla…
  • St. Lawrence O'Toole

    Lately it seems like when I look at the iLike music picks on my facebook page, the five that are up seem especially significant for my life at the moment, or particularly descriptive of me, so much so that I grab a pen a…
  • St. Joseph Pignatelli

    Yesterday I spent the afternoon working in the kitchen, baking bread for the formal dinner I went to last night, among other things. I was wearing one of my bibless chef's aprons over a long jean skirt and a grey sweat…
  • St. Benignus

    So last night at my Regular Catholic Young Adult Thing, we were going around the tables introducing ourselves by stating our full name, which was defined as any name which has been assigned to us on an official document …
  • St. Joseph Khang

    So for the last forever Johnsy's been cramming for this Huge, Important Test she has to take as part of her Master's. It's been an ordeal, not least of which is the two days it takes to actually take the thing. A few d…
  • St. Elizabeth

    I've been thinking about Christmas a lot lately. It's fun to do it now, before the marketing push really starts up, before the pressure hits, before there's any urgency to actually do anything about it. It's all antici…
  • St. Martin de Porres

    Yesterday morning I had to scrape frost off my windshield before I could drive to work. Last night I brought the rosemary and bay plants in off the back porch to what will be their winter homes on the kitchen table. I …
