In which I am bad
Stayed home from work today, because I felt like crap. That's not the bad; I believe that sick days were given to us for a higher purpose. Like sleeping and watching DVDs. Still feeling a bit lousy, so this will be short.
Today I reveal the "real" Allison who attended the Remembrance Day ceremony. Sure, I got the requisite tears in my eyes, but there were a couple of less then reverential moments. At one point, the pastor spoke about the Lord and his voice ringing out. A dog barked in the City Hall atrium area, echoing loudly. I cracked a smile. C'mon...God? Dog? It was hilarious. But the moment that is totally sending me to hell happened a bit later. A small boy was playing on the steps we were standing on and took a wee tumble. Immediately afterwards, the pastor asked us to "remember those who have fallen."
I giggled. Out loud. I am a very bad person.
