17 on 17, 1 year as a Catholic

Today is my one-year anniversary as a Catholic. Things have changed quite a bit in the last year, as many of you know.

For one, I began listening to podcasts. One of them is by a priest in the Netherlands, Fr. Roderick. He mentioned the idea of "12 on 12" that he'd heard somewhere on the Internet. Basically, the idea is to take 12 pictures on the 12th of the month and post them online for everyone to see. I liked the idea, but I'm a little slow. Before I knew it, it was the 17th. So I had to take 17 pictures.

Taking the 17 pictures today made me realize how much I enjoy my day. And how utterly boring it might appear to others. Try not to fall asleep as you follow me through my uneventful Monday.

Jason, semi-conscious, begins his day.

A bit more presentable.

I begin my early morning commute.

But before work, I head to the church.

And stop for a visit with the Big Guy before heading to the office.

Chocolate milk & chocolate chip muffin.... breakfast of champions, right at my desk!

A little e-mail before I get down to the real business.

Working on my Unix systems.

And dealing with customer problems (I'm frustrated here).

Here's my office, as I leave for the day.

Back on the bike for my enjoyable commute.

Bummer.... time to park the bike.

Hunting for supper in my rather barren fridge (hmmm, that milk smells funny).

Microwave, greatest invention... ever.

Teaching Dawn all about being Catholic.

Watching A&E's "God or the Girl" way too late into the night.

11:51!? I should be sleeping by now.

Good Night, see ya' tomorrow.
