Shhhhhh.

Can you hear that? It's the sound of silence. Okay, it isn't silence. The TV is on - Sex and the City reruns - and the hum of the air conditioner and clicking of my typing. But normally right now I'd be negotiating 5 more minutes before bath time with the kids. My mother-in-law is keeping the kids for the night and the hubby is headed out of town for work. I have the entire house to myself...and the cats...and the occasional cricket...and bat. But mostly to myself.

I questioned my faith today when a nun lied to me. Well, I think she lied to me. It was business related. I'm not Catholic. And after I discovered a nun can possibly lie without remorse, I'm definitely not becoming Catholic. Ever. Did you know a nun could lie? I mean, I get that they are humans. I know we are all creatures of sin, but I figured a nun's sins were more like rudeness, strictness - you know, sins that don't really count. Who knew they could lie?

So what should I do this evening? Stay in, maybe watch the movie I have in from Netflix - the one where the lesbians have kids and the kids look up the sperm donor. However, a friend told me today the movie - which I can't think of the name of - is terrible. I could go into work early, catch up on some paper work. Or, I could find a friend to have some cocktails with, hang out, stay up too late, and feel like crap tomorrow. Ahhhh, who's going to win out - the devil or the nun...I mean angel.

what did the nun lie about?

Turns out the nun didn't lie. My faith has been restored. It had to do with a Catholic school that I do some work for. Nothing very important, just went against things I had heard elsewhere.
