BEDEMIR: And what do you burn apart from witches?
VILLAGER #1: More witches!

 

[E.C.]

Following from that I have to ask

Will the note be acted upon ?

Hopefully!

Our archpriest celebrated his 25th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood. Which meant His Grace Bishop Benjamin was in town today (Saturday), which meant Hierarchical Liturgy. Which meant E.C. has a heart attack thinking about all of the work that goes into a Hierarchical Liturgy... until he realized that we had four sub-deacons and since it is a Hierarchical Liturgy, THEY get to have the heart attacks and not me

I love being an acolyte

 

[Anhelyna]

hehehehehehe

I see what you mean

Ain't it useful just being a lowly little acolyte

Make sure you have aspirin in your pocket to give them to keep their heart attacks from damaging them!

I can sympathize because I lived the same thing 2 months ago, when my bishop came in my parish to ordain a deacon. Me, the poor acolyte, spent the night revising the service book trying to memorize when to give dikiri/trikiri, how to do the washing of hands, etc.
Finally, Mgr Innokenti showed up with four well-trained subdeacons who did everything, all I had to do was basically stand still and occasionnaly hold the censer.

morning/evening

I went to a wedding last night, looked more greek than I ever have before (eek!) with CURLY HAIR - andrew's sister spent an hour with curling iron and hairspray, hehe, danced a lot and my feet hurt now and had uni and assignments due and got a new book and went out for dinner and had loukanika (andrew had moussaka which he pronounced as awesome) and chocolate soup (different place, chocolate soup is not greek!) and came home and am tired now.

 

[Julina]

Good luck!

chocolate soup? THAT sounds awesome!

 

[-Kyriaki-]

It's basically hot chocolate, but the kind made by melting good quality dark chocolate and adding milk...and its the same consistency as thick soup. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm.

We scraped the last dregs up!

I was doing the same thing but ended up holding the liturgical staff in front of the southern analogian. Still, it is always a blessing to have a bishop.

morning everyone.

You have my sympathies. Good luck!

Chocolate soup? [salivating]

 

[-Kyriaki-]

We've been craving it for all of Lent so we finally got to go

The place is like the chocolate shop in Chocolat, it's awesome.

:drooling: Now I really want chocolate. I have to make a trip to Max Brenner's for something chocolatey.

 

[-Kyriaki-]

Mm. Chocolate soup, brownies, loukanika and moussaka. I THINK we had a good night.

 

[Emmanuel-A]

XB ! and good morning to those who have finals, to chocolate lovers, to staff holding acolytes, to those who look greek and to other friends.

Greetings to those about to enter matrimony , though how they find time to pop on here I can't imagine

 

[Michael G]

Greetings to Scotts who speak like Frenchmen, to Frenchmen who are about to enter into marriage and to other friends.

 

[Anhelyna]

OH and Michael - you said

Greetings to Scotts who speak like Frenchmen......

it's Scots and I truly wish I spoke decent French - mine is more Swiss than it should be and my grammar is truly horrible - but I've never yet been stuck - even at DL
