– Sorry for that somewhat-of-a-copout post yesterday, but as I said, I was here on borrowed time, and I try not to sink too much time into this thing outside of work.
– After work, I grabbed a cup of soup in the caf and ate as I walked down Michigan Ave.

Not much today, since I don’t have time, since I only had to come into work for about two hours (say, from 1 to 3), since we only had two patients in that whole time.
I enjoyed the cool weather last night and the not-a-storm this morning.

EVENT
I haven’t been saying much in politics lately. If you glance at the Pumpkins posts, this makes sense; I generally only allow myself to post while at work, and I’ve spent all my posting time on Batman and on my confessional soul.

CONCEPT
More auto writing stuff.
Over the next year, Big Things continued happening with regularity.
The most conspicuous Big Thing was getting my drivers licence. Now I could access Flint Youth Theatre and any of my Flint friends in under a half-hour, whenever I got to use the car.

Faithful Dissent, Part 3
BODY
Continued from here.
So the first spin through, I asserted that I can legitimately dissent faithfully based upon a clear understanding of conscience as defined in the Catechism.
On the second spin through I examined up close the Catechism’s definition, and came to the conclusion that we have the right to exercise conscience, the responsibility to exercise conscience, and the responsibility to educate our conscience, that is, to develop it towards rigorous and objective standards.

– Yesterday I got out of work early, but spent the first several hours back home catching up on sleep. Retrospectively, I kind of wish I’d gone for a walk or someting, but I probably needed the sleep. I reviewed my loan package from the Access Group and started on my loan application, redownloaded Machina II, and wrote a lengthier than I intended overview of a couple Batman movies.

DIARY
Continued from here. This part is the autobiographical bit. So if you don’t want to listen to me talk about growing up, skip this, because there’s nothing more to see here.
I’m going to mainly talk about Smashing Pumpkins in 10th and 11th grade, but I have to go back a little further.

Batman and Batman Begins.
CONCEPT
vs. 
Warning. Spoilers ahead.
At a glance, everyone loves Batman Begins. A quick perusal of about thirty reviews showed that nobody gave it less than a 3.8 out of 5, and Roger Ebert gives a full 5. Not bad.
