I found a link to this song on my cousin’s MySpace site, and I love it.  They said you could link it, so I’ll see if I can link here to the internet radio site.

Okay.  It’s hot and humid.  It could be worse, really, but it’s not great to sleep in, especially since my house gets really warm at night and there’s not great ventilation in my bedroom.
I already tried sleeping outside on the trampoline, which would have been an acceptable solution, except that all the bugs in the [...]

Yet Another TestOriginally uploaded by CadyLy
Okay, so I got how to upload pictures to my Flickr account; and I got how to post blog entries; but I couldn’t find a way from the Flickr site to post pictures to the blog as I do from my desktop. I would imagine that I would mostly be [...]

Power Outage

June 26th, 2008 · 3 Comments

While I was safely tucked away at work in Ann Arbor, apparently a storm came through Troy — knocking out a lot of the power in the area, including mine. I just wanted to let you all know. It’s kinda nice, being able to still be connected, but I think I’m going to [...]

WHAT IS IT??!?!?!?!Originally uploaded by CadyLy
 This may say a lot about me.  I am getting ready to go to bed, since I have to get up freakishly early in the morning (even for me, who normally sets the alarm for 4:30 am).  I step out of my bedroom for a minute and happen to catch [...]

Because I’m a little at a loss. Except for sitting down and weeding them all out, which would take days….

Yet another reason why I love my Crackberry.
After much debate, I decided to go to OLGC for morning Mass this morning.  Why was it a debate?  Well, after being laid off from my job in Ann Arbor on Saturdays, I didn’t really have a good justification to spend the $12 in gas to get there [...]

Notes on “Crossing the Threshold of Love” — III

June 19th, 2008 · No Comments

“In this regard Wojtyla notes that an experience of values that comes about through feelings must always be subordinated to the truth.” (61)
How true is this? Certainly, feelings can color our experiences to a great degree and even sway our preferences and our decisions. However, our feelings are fleeting and change based on a whole [...]
