Blogger meet-up

I got to meet Mother Laura yesterday! She was in the South Bay on a whirlwind of retreats and other stuff, and drove up here to meet me. She got here just in time for chapel at school, then we walked to my favorite local Thai place for lunch. She’s even more fun in real life, than she is in print—and she’s in the middle of some huge convergences. It was really exciting to hang out with her. We just kept talking; her call and mine, academia, spiritual direction, how amazing God is. Then we raided the free books in the basement at Starr-King, snagged one of my friends to take pics, and she went home.

Pics forthcoming; I’ll steal hers when she posts them. We had a great time.

Update: Here is a picture:


and here is her post.
