Massive Buildings of Terror and Awe and Wonder and Beauty

 I am totally not obsessed..not at all. Nope.  Cathedrals are just amazing and they have been on my mind. I have been singing in this frightening Catholic church..it is haunting and magnificent...but not as much as these in the pictures must be.  It is nice to sit in the big pews and feel awed and small and shivery. I am not catholic, just a reminder. I just like beautiful buildings with history built into the walls. Yeahhhhh..so anyway. I will try to do some Christmas posts soon. After I am finished with my obnoxious cathedrals in Europe phase.  Sorry had to share. Ok fine and while I'm on here I might as well mention that the Hobbit is coming out  on Friday and I am not freakishly obsessed with that but I am looking forward to it very much....maybe we should set up a projector in the cathedrals once it is out and watch it...and listen to it echo. With me anyone? Anyone at all? Oh...ok I understand ;)

  14. Haha well OTHER people(ahem..."mediators")mis-interpeted and/or twisted a great many things said on both sides...Yes, Jeremy, if you knew me you would know that the stuff that "Maddie said" was not legit as "from Maddie". Things that were related to you about me seem to be of the negative sort, but I must say that I never had any sort of complaint against you. Even though I have asked the mediators if you were joking or not and they gave an emphatic "NO". haha;) I believe you though if you believe me. Thank you. :) Yay! Speaking terms again! haha jk;)

  15. Hahaha sounds about right Maddie! I believe you also... no hurt feelings :) Yes! speaking terms again! lol

    ReplyDelete
  16. Yep! Restored speaking terms..hehe...I am not a fan of knowing someone through mediators. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Haha yeah! Im not a fan of that either... We dont have to anymore...! lol :p

    ReplyDelete
  18. No just don't say anything to the mediators about me and I won't say anything to them about you. Problem solved...haha now DON'T sing "Grace Like Rain" if you never see us again...;)

    ReplyDelete
  19. Yes :) solved! haha, Why can't I sing it??? lol

    ReplyDelete
  20. Haha, you know...well the mediators(you know who you are) told me that you sang that when you found out you weren't going to see us while we were visiting...hahahaha. I just laughed. ;)
