Father Bob Maguire - you are awesome. Yep.
I love that his 'clarification that he didn't say he would marry a gay couple' ended up being closer to 'I can't because the law says I can't but I would provide pastoral support to any same-sex couples who wanted me to say a few ritual words' and so on. So, basically, 'I can't until it's legal but I have no problem participating in ceremonies for anyone'
People like him give me hope. <3
For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, he's a Catholic priest in Australia who has essentially come out and said the above. And is getting a whole lot of media coverage.
The way he said it, he obviously still values the work he does as a priest and as a part of the Catholic church, made me ridiculously happy. <3
And now that I've rambled about that, I will tell you that I saw Ame today, bought those English books, and am now going to settle down into doing a couple of memes. So this will end up quite long, I assure you. HAHAHA Oh I just remembered, one of the books I had to buy was Hamlet. On the cover, there is a picture of Jude Law. It was a bit epic.
Oh! Last night I actually cleaned out my 'I-don't-know-where-it-goes-so-it-goes-here' drawer. At 2am. There's probably something wrong with me, I clean late at night far too often.
Now, because I have been tagged by two separate people, I'm actually going to do this. (btw this also has a lot to do with the fact that I ended up not having to go to work tonight. sweet!)

Kudos to anyone who got through all that. Now, I am off to read the new chapters of two of my favourite fics.
Bye!
