Ha! A flashback to my childhood. Guitar Mass on Sunday. Of course held in the basement while the traditional mass was upstairs. It wasn't called a contemporary mass, modern mass, no a Guitar Mass. I rarely went as with all that guitar music and songs the mass usually was about 20 minutes longer and I had a short attention span. :rolleyes:

That's the one we know as the Folk Mass. It's held in the main sanctuary at 10:15a.
The Teen Mass is at 6p, and they kinda' rock the place with modern Christian music. Teen RE is right after that. :)

Snowmageddon is striking again! :jawdrop: ;) Apparently, tomorrow is supposed to be more snow than originally predicted and now a number of areas will get up to 2 "more" feet. I live directly in the highest snowfall belt. At least I don't live in Boston, and have plenty of space to park my car here, without worrying about it getting towed during snow emergencies.

So, the mayor of Boston held a press conference this afternoon with the public works people, fire, rescue, police, etc. Because the snow piles are still so high and streets narrowed by wide snowbanks, they're shutting down the city schools again for 2 days--just to try and remove the snow that's still there now, while bracing for the additional 20-24 inches over the next day and a half. (They've been working round the clock bringing in front loaders and dumping snow into large open backed trucks, who then drive out tons of snow to snow farms. There, they use the huge melter equipment machines, some on loan from New York.)

Mayor and police commissioner said it was to the point of being a public safety issue, as rescue vehicles are still having difficulty negotiating the skinny side streets, and blocked major arteries with traffic gridlock. (Just over the past week, they've issued 1,500 tickets in the city for parking violations, drivers "blocking the box" (gridlocking intersections), not shoveling sidewalks, throwing snow out in the street, etc. They've been busy!)

Apparently the city has now broken snowfall records for large back to back storms, since they've been keeping records of this back in the late 1800s. :eek: :D

go figure.. something very weird happened today.

First.. I had a very weird dream involving Disney princesses, mixed in a star wars like firefight in space.
Repunzel (with short hair) was a battle commander, kicked *** in space, her ship got severely damaged.. we crash landed...
We ended walking in a pretty spanish style villa, where the commander of the ship was insisting that repunzel find a suitable man. She kept refusing everyone.. in a part there was prince phillip and aurora walking out.
Funnily I always seen this from the perspective of a body guard of Repunzel.
I woke up all "The hell was that".
Then I decided to take it as a hint (it was very early).
So, I Used the WDWapp for android to check on reservations.. and VOILA! found one spot in my first day at WDW at Ohana.
I have now a spot in OHANA!

then I flopped back to bed to sleep more.
I had another dream, involving thiefs and my dad's car, also car crashes (not involving me directly) and other stuff. It was weird.
Took it as another sign...
As soon woke up, did review my email confirmation for the reservation...
Despite selecting 1 seat. the WDWapp changed the reservations from 1 seat to 4 seats!
So I just emailed the WDW email crew to fix this issue.

I'm getting clairvoyance for WDW issues? :eek:

Post of the Month! :D:):joyfull:

I had everyone in my house read the Cesar Dream sequence! Great chuckles by all. We deemed you dream in the same crazy manner my DD does.

So glad you did go back and check Ohana for the beginning of your trip. Score!

What is in the filling?

The main ingredients are apples (pears are very good too, but they tend to be a little more juicy, so you either need to use a little less of them, or press a little of the extra juice out of them after they are chopped/grated), golden raisins, chopped pecans, coconut, and a few other things. ;)
You can, of course, delete certain undesirable ingredients and add more of others. :)
I used butter for the dough this time 'cause I accidentally picked it up instead of the usual margarine. The dough rolled out a tad smaller, but, it seemed to be even more beautifully flakey. :)
An old family recipe, and, wherever it's taken, it disappears in no time. :happy:

Edit: "golden raisins", not "golden grapes". :oops: :rolleyes: ;) :)

You guys are all over our news. As much snow as we have had it is nothing like what you have received. We were like that last year. I like when others come to the aid of others. Nice of NY. Will you get to stay home again?

Yeah, I was very surprised about O'Hana.

Also, I had to resume the dream sequence. But if I had to explain the whole dream in detail.. I would look like a crazy 12 year old girl who just wrote their "magnus opus" (aka a fanfic) :hilarious:

Tomorrow I go to the hair salon to exchange my skunk stripe ;) for a half-dozen chunky hot pink highlights. Maybe.

Being a natural redhead, I don't grey. I'm just starting to have a little white mixed in which actually looks pretty cool. There's one redhead born in every generation of our family for as far back as anyone can remember and none have gone grey. :)

Lucky.

I'm basically preparing for the fact that I will go grey at some point. My dad is salt and peppered, and my mom would be completely grey if she didn't get highlights and low lights done. She showed me her roots one time when she had to wait to get her coloring done...oy. Thankfully neither of them went grey super early; my mom started after she had kids, Dad started going grey at around 40 but it's taken him a long time, so I've got a good 15 years yet. Hopefully.

Listen my friend, you're already on thin ice with the 5' 9" thing!
You will go grey like the rest of us, and you will like it! :hilarious::joyfull:
