September...I mean October

It's October.

Strange, isn't it? Time passes by so quickly. I knew I hadn't put a post up in September, but I didn't have anything to say, so I didn't. (A valuable lesson, that is...)

It's gotten colder. I think it's going to start snowing soon...I'm on a trip in Canada right now. It's a mild trip (just hanging out in Toronto tonight and tomorrow) but it should be fun. I'll post pictures of whatever excursions I'm on at some point, I think. One of my friends is in Rome and he is putting up pictures of the art of Catholic Rome. It makes me somewhat excited and jealous because being able to go to Rome would be such an amazing experience.

The contrast is rather striking (Canada is no Rome, that's for certain) [but one of the things I've been trying to do is to be thankful for what I do have...it really is a blessing to be able to be out here on a business trip, even if it's not exactly what I had in mind]. Unfortunately, I am stuck on a bus for a good part of this week, a factor that makes it extremely difficult to get work done -- normally not too big a deal, but there are a number of applications and a variety of paperwork I should have completed by the end of this week and unfortunately it doesn't look like I will be able to get that done without staying up late.

I wish I had something interesting or remarkable to say, but then I realize that this blog was made when I was a wee ambitious young'un so I've never had anything interesting or remarkable to say.

Pray for us!
