It's March already
There's a huge snow storm forecasted for tonight into tomorrow. This lady I work with, Jan, she called and left me voicemail saying that she's "absolutely not going to be coming to the city with the horrible weather" and asked if I'm going. Jan is a person that always talks about what a "struggle" life is and how "hard" she has it. As much as I want to, I can't understand people that are so sensitive to everything.
As for the work situation, I go by how it looks in the morning. If trains are suspended then I'll start to think about the options. There's a ton of ways to get over there, (bus to train, two buses, ferry) so most likely I would come in late rather than not come in at all. I'm not really looking for an excuse not to go. The work doesn't do itself!
So St. Valentine's day came and went. It was a normal day for me since I have no significant other. I did meet up some friends at a coffee shop, but this is a frequent occurrence. It's fun since we go to a different one each time, we've been to more than 10, and I always hear of new ones in Park Slope, Bay Ridge, Ft Hamilton (areas of South Brooklyn) that we haven't tried.
When we speak of Lent, we speak of preparation so that the life in us can be renewed. I've made my lenten promises focused on what I am "adding on" more than "giving up". I am giving a few things, such as all television/moving images. It's not difficult, but it's very quiet and I'm much more aware that I live alone.
I will put more time into Centering prayer [wiki] and I'll study more. I very much enjoy studying the Church's perspective about current events and issues, as much as people think the Church is outdated, Tradition and the application of doctrine truly withstand the test of time.
