From sunny Ohio:

I am on Spring Break this week.

Last friday, I came home and met up with Josh and Craigr. We did lots of hanging out and then, on Saturday, headed up to our college alma mater to help out with a retreat that the Catholic group was putting on. It was a great experience. I got to speak about the sacrament of Reconciliation as well as help lead some praise and worship and provide music for Mass. Also, I was slightly blown away when a couple I know asked me to marry them (when I'm, God-willing, a deacon).

After the retreat, we went to Canton and met up with some other friends who I haven't seen in over a year. Good times were had by all. We came back to the City of Murals and slept late into the next day, after which we ate breakfast and watched TNT's Lord of the Rings marathon for a bit.

I spent the rest of Sunday visiting relatives, drawing comics about my dog on a MagnaDoodle and watching Sufjan videos with my sister.

Today, I came to Franciscan for Mass and got to spend time praying, hanging out with my sister, drinking tea and seeing friends from here.

I hope to spend the rest of the break in a similar fashion.

I'll try to do some non-me-related blogging this evening.

Note: When I titled this post "From sunny Ohio," I did not mean to imply that it is warm here. It's sunny with a brutally cold wind.
