I all but wept in mass tonight. Absolution does something funny to me, and I get a little overwhealmed. I'm just glad I went alone, lest my immediate family see me such a weepy wreck. Not that it's a bad thing, it's just kind of embarrassing.

I held a feeble woman's hand during the Lord's Prayer, and she squeezed it and thanked me, and thanked me again at the end of mass. Another moment to feel all squishier-than-usual.



Next week is going to be one crazy ride. Lots of 7, 8-hour shifts and an 8-8:30 on Sunday. I hope that I have the inspriation to draw, and draw lots, or I will be one bored gal. Though, today, having forgotten my power chord, I spent the entire shift reading A Ready Defense, which was quite fascinating, especially in reference to the archaeological testamonies to Isaiah.

Oh and darling Chase's grad party, oh Chaaase. I hope I do see him before he's off to Harvard--full ride scholarship. That lucky kiddo.

I think I know what you mean. Sometimes my mother will try to help me with my downs by reciting bible verses or praying & it makes my heart lighter, almost softer. & then there were times when I used to go to church & the pastor would say his sermon with so much passion, so much love, that I could feel myself crying without even realizing it.

Awww, I know what you mean.

I can be set off crying by a great many things. And sometimes, I just start crying because I'm so happy, or I'm watching someone else who's really happy. *was a huge mess during her cousin's wedding, because IT WAS JUST THAT BEAUTIFUL. SOB*

And then everyone's trying to comfort me or hand me tissues and it's like "AAAH GO AWAY AND LET ME COMPOSE MYSELF."
