Update



We picked Diesel up about 3 hours ago, he's doing fine. He's sleepy but he's basically the usual crazy Diesel. He'll be staying in for a couple of days though.

I asked the Vet people if a dog that was run over had come in, they said yes. The dog will be fine, he had some head abrasions and I think they said he broke a bone. The lady was looking at me like I was some sort of animal abuser, like "How could I leave the dog all alone?" I forgot to mention that the guy that hit the dog was walking back to the dog. I mean, what do you do in that situation? Sometimes it's just not safe, I'm not even talking about today, like if you are on a dark road and you hit a dog. You don't exactly know what creepy person is running about in the dark. Anyway, I'm glad God answered my prayers and that I found out the dog was OK.

I just finished watching Joan of Arc, with Ingrid Bergman as Joan. The thing about Ingrid that I've noticed is that (from what I've seen) she was never in movies that portrayed her as like Marylin Monroe (like in Some like it Hot), she played deep characters not blonds that were absolutely obsessed with men. I also like Julie Andrews (!!!!!), Grace Kelly, Ginger Rogers, Debbie Reynolds and even though Audry Hepburn is like Monroe except she's not blond I still adore her, because she was fabulous. All those actresses had spunk, Monroe was um.... Not really a virtuous character in her movies. Back to Joan of Arc, I liked it. But it is an epic, so you can't really watch too many of those in a row. I hate, hate, hate how in the movie they called it the "Church" but it was just soooo corrupt, but it is a true depiction (for the most part). It makes me sad that the Church became that to so many people.

Wow that was random.

Here's another random thing, I was looking at some pics from a camping trip I took a couple of years ago. Oh my word. It was absolutely beautiful, God's wonderful creation showing off its stuff. And boy, it has stuff to show off. You all should come to the North West if you can, it's absolutely gorgeous. It puts me in awe..... Just look around. God is giving you wonderful signs of His intimate love for us, His great love and yet so intimate.....

Didn't you find a bunch of dead sea animals on that vacay?

Were you talking about like the pre-reformation times about he church being corrupt? If you were, watch the movie that came out a little while ago, Luther, it was fabulous.

Oh yeah, well I like Jimmy Stewart, Peter Lori, Cary Grant (sort of), Humphrey Bogart, and Cory Miller! (was Cory Miller a golden age actor? I think he was.)

Father Cory said...

I'm pretty sure he was. He's one of my very very favorites.

Dudes.... I TOTALLY saw Cory Miller in Meet me at Luigis. He was TOTALLY awesome. Sometimes I wish I had his autograph. ;)
