This morning we did not go to church.  I just haven't felt well and I thought I'd honor myself and my body by resting.  I did go to work.  

It's always fun to work with M.  He's intelligent and funny.  We care about so many of the same things.  M is gay and I've learned a lot about his struggle to exist in a society that wants to make him into a second class citizen.  

M is a good son,  a good friend and a good person.  He enhances--his family,  his circle of friends,  and the places where he works.  I'm lucky that I'm not prejudiced.  

We didn't eat with the kids tonight.  It didn't work for anyone concerned,  but for different reasons.
