St. Zachariah of Rome
I had the weirdest dreams last night! They were really just one long chain of dreams, one after another, but nothing connected them. Everything was super vivid and colorful (with sound effects even!). I don't know what I ate last night, but once I figure it out I'm going to start eating it every night before bed ( Read more... ) -
St. Leander of Seville
I love the name Leander! If God grants me multiple sons (ha!), the third or fourth will be Leander (got to a couple other names in first ( Read more... ) -
St. Terence of Carthage
Kiflin ch'eresku! And I still speak atrocious Amharic :-). C'est la vie! For the moment I'm excited, though a little sad that I won't see the language helpers or my classmates anywhere. Still, now that I'm done with the Language School I'll have more time to get stuff done before I leave in two weeks (be'igzi'abihayr fek'ad). If I can just get rid ( Read more... ) -
St. Simeon the New Theologian
BTW, happy Greek Independence Day everyone! I don't recall seeing the host of flags that usually shows up around now when I passed by St. Frumentius' yesterday, but they usually move feasts to the closest Sunday, so perhaps they'll show up this weekend? One can only hope ( Read more... ) -
St. Gregory the Great
Okay, I'm ready to be healthy again :-). It doesn't help that my mum woke me up early this morning. We have a "fun day" at Language School today, so I'd planned to just let my body rest and then go when I woke up (since I'm getting old and can't seem to sleep past 7:30 or 8am anyways). But no ( Read more... ) -
St. Alexis of the Kiev Caves
I had a great day today! I'm feeling really dry and tired as a result (heaven help me tomorrow morning - this cold will probably take me out), but it was totally worth it. I spent a while visiting with my dad's dembegna down near Posta Bayt, stopped in at Hailay Silasay Souvenirs to check out their current prices (still good), and then walked up ( Read more... ) -
St. Eulogius of Cordoba
Our phones AND our internet are actually working! It's a miracle! I'm still in the throes of a cold, but I've been sleeping lots and loading up on all kinds of medicines and teas, so it hasn't gotten too bad so far (thank God). I've got lots to do before I go though, so hopefully I'll be able to balance the rest I'm needing with the things I need ( Read more... ) -
St. Felix of Dunwich
It's not even 5:30am and I'm awake. I went to bed somewhere 'round 1:30am. I had the weirdest (and increasingly horrible/zombie dog-oriented (yeah, I know)) dream and just stayed in bed till I couldn't take it anymore, then got up to listen to Gedame Iyesus and (now) Abba Jiffar. Gedame Iyesus was ringing its bells at 1am - not sure what's going on ( Read more... ) -
St. Emilian of Rome
Wow, salsa dancing is way too cool! I was just watching a clip a friend in Seoul sent me and it's "totally wicked" to quote whatever Pixar movie that is :-). Anyways, I've got to go get ready for dinner out at the Alliance - toodles!
