What is blog doing?

I went to check my August 2003 entries...and they're all eaten (with the exception of four or so). What's up with this!??!?!? I am doomed to lose all journals. (Sorry, this has happened in a different form before. My entire senior year of high school is now lost inside a dead harddrive. Gah.)

Visited Aunt Clarisse (aka Sister Mary Beata) today. Eight hour trip or so down and back, one hour visiting. It was good to see her, but the poor thing is so old and tired. We quite tuckered her out! And now I am tuckered out. Ah well. Thank God for Crimson Pirate music and other Celtic folk-y stuff. We hates rain, precious. And backed up traffic. Ah ca!

[Edited to add: And now I'm completely turned around! Somehow it's all back! Thank you God! (I guess republishing the entire site works...!]

[Edited to add more:] Some good links for today. The new movie Luther is now released. Apparently well-made, and just as apparently egregious in its attempt to villainize the Church and rewrite history to make Luther into a flawless man, not to mention the perpetuation of misunderstandings, the consolations are these: 1) at least Hollywood is now attempting to do Christian films well, and 2) regardless, most critics aren't buying the film because of Fiennes' (Joseph, alas, not Ralph!) mono-facial expressions. Mark Shea has linked explanations of Purgatory and Indulgences - the two sources of misunderstanding mentioned in the film.

Also, an interesting secular testimonial about the effects of having an abortion upon the couple. Want to truly care about the "health and happiness of the mother?" Encourage her to have the child. Encourage chastity in all stages of life.

Mood: How were my entries eaten?
Music: Sleeping Beauty emanating from upstairs
Thought: I am glad to have Thrones, Dominations, even if it isn't authentic Sayers.
