Dirty Laundry

Very funny quote.  Even funnier website. 

 
"What good does it do to know that Joe and Jane are married?  The news we really need is who's breaking up - so we can go and console and hit on them."  (Flint Wainess, co-creator of
BreakUpNews as quoted in Newsweek's article  Till Blog Do Us Part.

 
On the same topic, (even though the connection will not be quite apparent to most,) I went to adoration last week.  No, the surprise isn't that I went to adoration, (I know, I do seem to be the fallen angel everyone takes me as, but really, I've got at least a sixteenth of my halo left,) but it was who I saw up at church that came as the surprise.  I found myself engaging in conversation with this character, for half an hour of (precious) adoration time.  It still amazes me that when I'm going to all of these church functions, hanging out with (most) all of the right people, and (mostly) attempting to be (somewhat) holy, it's the little encounters like this that remind me of God's presence in my life.  I didn't need to meet up with this person.  I had actually gotten used to not speaking with him, and was positive I had burned the bridge quite thoroughly.   But having that half an hour of conversation - the basic topics, the basic questions, nothing deep or even personal - reminded me that God still watches and knows what is important to me. 

There is no bridge burned that God can not repair.  From ashes we will rise. 

(Now enough of my chattering, go laugh your ass off and read some breakup stories.  We should do a group vote, see if I should submit all of my horrors.....)
