Rest and Bread ("Hope")

Psalm 121
Sacred Text: The Canticle of Zechariah

In his reflection, Keith talked about how the opposite of hope is despair and how "a false belief is not hope."

Yeah, I'm bad at Subject Lines (and timely bedtimes).

Seen yesterday: "If Somerville was an ice cream, what flavors would it be?"

forwarded mail: bank statement, Meetinghouse Concert postcard
correctly addressed mail: birthday card+check from my grandmother, birthday card from my parents

birthday card from my parents:
Front: [image of a tv with an image of the Master behind Buffy, from "Prophecy Girl"] text below: "It's your birthday. The creatures of the night will soon gather."
Inside: [Buffy theme song plays] text: "Time for ice cream and stake." [my mom wrote: "Oh come on - how could I resist?"]
And the back has the "Welcome to Sunnydale, enjoy your stay" sign

I gleed at the Buffy card and my housemate asked if I was a fan of Buffy.  I almost said, "What you mean 'was'?" but just said yes.  She asked if I'd followed Joss' subsequent ventures and I said yes.  She then said, "Should I make you a Jayne hat?"  I laughed and said I'm not much of a hat person.
