TGIF!!!

Indeed. One very tired tech writer here, reporting in for Friday, January 9, 2004. At least I feel I'm actually accomplishing something, and the things I'm accomplishing are neither trivial nor boring. These are good things.

Looking forward to a good rest this weekend, in between finishing getting unpacked and setting stuff up, and running around to various shops filling in what I consider the ridiculous gaps in common sense committed by whoever designed and/or decorated this apartment.

Relatively quiet here today. I helped someone with a search this morning; she was most effusive in her thanks. A good way to wind up the week. My boss has left for the day; the chemo is making her very tired, not unexpectedly, of course. The weather icon says -4 degrees.

I'm looking forward to hibernating at home this weekend. I really want to finish The Time Traveler's Wife, which I've been reading for ages (518 pages long). I rented Pearl Harbor from Netflix; we saw it in the theater, but wouldn't mind watching it again. We'll probably go get some dinner at Zebb's tonight and maybe fold in the grocery shopping, too, which I normally do on Sunday.

What do you think of Pete Rose finally admitting he bet on baseball? I think it was very tacky of him and his publisher to have the book come out the same week the 2004 Hall of Fame inductees were announced. Paul Molitor and Dennis Eckersley shouldn't have to be answering questions about Rose -- they should be just enjoying their own successes.

So should I be finding you an open-minded Episcopal church in Jax, now? :-)

Good idea!

I was thinking of posting an open request for suggestions on the episcopal LJ, as well - just to see what kind of response I get.

Well, whatever you do, don't go to All Souls. They have photos from the AAC meeting in Dallas proudly posted on their website and "An Open Letter to The Most Rev. Frank T. Griswold from The Rt. Rev. Stephen H. Jecko (that would be the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Florida)" that I haven't bothered reading because I have a good sense of what it will say.

All Saints looks WAY too "laid back" for words.

And I just looked at the Florida Diocese website. They have "News from the AAC" as one of their links. Can't think it's because they want to see what the "other guy" is up to...

There has to be a "voice crying in the wilderness" somewhere in JAX. St. Bede's in Santa Fe was the one I found in NM. You may want to get in touch with folks at All Saints Atlanta (or even St. Bede's, actually) to see if they can recommend a similarly-minded church in what appears to be a staunch AAC bastion.

Wish I had better news.
