I haven't seen anything past the second season of Lost, and I have only seen a few episodes of Veronica Mars... pout mode.
I wish I could be there for the wedding, but... well, first of all, my unit would kill me for leaving them a two person unit for however many days, and second of all, I can't afford the tickets. So, either way, it's a no-go. I will admit that this summer, I could have asked to be put on a unit close to home, naming the wedding as the reason, but... I really felt the call to come here, so come here I did.
I'm glad things are going so well (and interestingly) with you and Mom. I wish I were there for that, as well. About the rosary: I know that I have good memories associated with it. (I do, however, try to block out passing out and having a seizure during one. Funny how that works.) A few years ago, when I was really tired, and feeling the need to pray, but not really able to come up with words, I just did the rosary, over and over, not using that as a substitute, but as an aide for it. I trusted God to see what I was needing to say, while making the effort to communicate. Heck, I still do it, just... rosary-less.

I'm praying about the DLI. I love you, Dad.
