Today marked the official start of our seminary fall break. This morning we had an alumni day Mass which featured about 150 visitors from the seminary's past. After a post-Mass social where I was in charge of the bar, it was off to a fancy luncheon with lots of speechs. In the end it was a great day and I particularly enjoyed celebrating those priest who had graduated 50+ years ago. The two oldest priests present had served for over 65 years. I can't begin to imagine what I will look like in sixty five years, God willing.
At the conclusion of the luncheon the rector announced a free weekend, with no classes on friday. We of course applaudled loudly and then made our way to the exits at double time. I will be using my time to catch up, sleep in and perhaps even get ahead.
Right now I am headed to bed early for the first time in a long time.

Glad to hear you have an early weekend start! Just wanted you to know that when you google Andrew Nelson Bellringer it shows you are 29....now I know you don't like aging, however, I feel you should accept the fact you are in fact 31.....embrace it.....if you age at all like your older brother, you've got nothing to worry about as he is suuucch a handsome man.
