Ausculta, fili

Here is a sneak preview of some words* from my Christmas homilies, for the Vigil Mass and for the Mass at Dawn:

consider
savor
chafe
drab
fraught
engaging

*The aforementioned and other words may or may not actually be said or heard, depending on factors including, but not limited to, the din of crying children, ringtones of Ke$ha, and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

  1. Please tell me that the Kesha ringtone didn't really happen - Chad finds it funny that you know who Ke$ha is. The next time a phone rings you should just stop and go ask whose phone it is. Yikes. Maybe we'll see you tonight.

  2. My awareness of this singing sprite is limited, thankfully, to the 30-second clips of her material on iTunes. I'll wait for her cover album of Sarah Vaughan songs to investigate further.
