Evening of Recollection
Good morning! I got the girls dropped off at their schools and head into Boxborough, listening to a couple more chapters of my audio book along the way. It's a bit gloomy out but at least it was almost 60°F out. I stopped for a fuel-up, none too happy that it's been around $4.05/gallon for diesel this past month. But at least with the warmer temperatures, my mileage is coming back and got around 55mpg on my way in.
Via Dr. Paul Camarata: “The very perfection of man is to discover his own imperfections.” — St. Augustine.
Been a busy day. I created several new test vectors. I left work around 5:30 and head north to Bedford, NH, catching up with my dad and finishing the CD of the first part of my audiobook. I attended another monthly Opus Dei Evening of Recollection. It's always time well spent. On my way home I listened to a talk by Father Robert Barron about his work on YouTube and four of the most common misconceptions he sees in the secular culture based on the negative comments he gets in response to his videos. He jokingly called his talk “The YouTube Heresies”, partly in homage to St. Irenaeus' work, “Against Heresies”.
