I had a strange weekend. What was intended as a dignified night of wine and gabbing quickly devolved into too much fun and private room karaoke in Korea Town. Saturday, I tidied my apartment and picked up my laundry. Very quiet.

Of course, the news alerts about this gave me the creeps. I stayed on the UWS on Sunday. I did go to church (just not my preferred church) where I particularly enjoyed the collect.

“Grant us, Lord, not to be anxious about earthly things, but to love things heavenly; and even now, while we are placed among things that are passing away, to hold fast to those that shall endure; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.”
