I Got Your Religious Experience Right Here

Easter Vigil more or less made me want to do potlucking.

And join a choir.

Is it can be May now?

Also: more stupid conversations with my grandmother.

"Do you go to church?"
"No."
"Why?"
*shrug*
"Don't you believe?"
"No."
"Isn't your dad a Catholic? Didn't he ever take you to church?"
"Actually, my dad's an atheist."
"Well, I don't think that's a very good idea either."
*cue me walking away*

Things I didn't say:
"You know, mom never took me to church either except to see the inside of that LDS church the one time (the Bovaird one, you know), and YOUR SON never did either, so really, moral failings all around."

Or possibly,
"Shut the fuck up and leave me alone. I am sick and tired of your conservatism, and I dread having to live here because my 'job' after school will be an internship for however long. Please, God, please let me be hired within a week."

I also fully recognize the irony in appealing to God for such a thing. While I'm at it, can I have a smiting?

Dear Serena and/or Jason,

We should move in together downtown when I have money. For great justice.

On Comics

I've read... not sure if they're compilations of issues 1 & 2, or just exceptionally long issues, but the first ones of Devi and The Sadhu. Both interesting, both good. If only I were making money, right?
