When I said I was tagged again for the Thinking Bloggers meme, I was mistaken (pipe down now; no comments, please). I was, however, tagged by A Catholic Mom in Hawaii for the About Me meme:
1. Male or Female: Male

3. Dream vacation: Four weeks driving around the United Kingdom

7. Biggest "pet-peeve": Slow drivers
.8. Favorite Religious devotion: Stations of the Cross
9. Favorite Saint (besides the Blessed Mother): Francis of Assisi
10. Favorite sport that you play: Does reading count?
11. Favorite food: Carbonara
12. Tridentine or Novus Ordo: The Novus Ordo, celebrated well
13. Would you (or are you) home school or public school: I attended Catholic grade school, public high school, and Catholic college
14. How many kids do you have: Zero physically, but hundreds spiritually
15. Ever been in an auto accident: Yes; I was struck in the side after I returned from Assisi; all I wanted to do was look at my pictures and some woman had to run into me

.19. Favorite Blog: Hmm...that's a tough one. My daily stops always include the Roving Medievalist and Open Book
20. Your thoughts on Barney, the Easter bunny, and Santa Claus: I don't really think about them, though I strongly dislike Barney. I have wondered why a rabbit gives out eggs
I tag the Roving Medievalist, Ad Dominum, From Across the Net, and Leave Your Head at the Door. If you also want to do it, consider yourself tagged.
No comment.
ReplyDelete( Didn't think I could follow orders, did you? )
Seriously, though, don't blog when you're tired. She tagged you for both.
Good advice, good advice.
ReplyDeleteMischief managed, and I do mean mischief.
ReplyDeleteFather, your friend was surprised that I was familiar with Quincy. I told him that is where my husband's aunt lives. Must be a small town.
ReplyDeleteFather,
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to go on your dream vacation. I drove around England and Wales for 3 weeks by myself a couple of years ago and loved it.
There was always that sense of old Catholic England that is still there that I appreciate so much.
Maybe again, some day????
Esther: You're kidding?! Who is your husband's aunt? (you can e-mail that to me). Quincy may well be the center of the world...
ReplyDeleteFr. Stephan: Thanks! I hope I get it, too; and that you get to do it again!
