St. Steph: Amateur Catholic
Unlike Anonymous Teacher Person, who somehow manages to get "22% of her students to listen at any given moment," I consider myself lucky if I can get 22% of my students in their seats at any given moment. If they happen to notice that there's someone standing at the front of room talking at them .... hey, that's just bonus!
I'm Steph and, while my subtitle over at Narrow at the Outset may claim that I'm professed, it most certainly does not make me a professional. They won't give me the ring for another four or five years, at least. Right now I'm lucky that they even claim me. Although if they read some of the stuff I put on my blog, they might not even do that.
>But, in order to prove my amateur status, and the fact that so many people pretend not to know me at any given time, may I merely point you in the direction of some of my most moving poetry to date .... or perhaps the fruit of my monastic formation psalmody study .... And while I may occasionally slip into a bit of Benedictine blogging (don't worry, I make it all up as I go along), I tend to prefer a more informercial-styled format.
So, can I play? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? I'm really good at being annoying. And besides, do you really want me to come after you? With the backup that I get from my family? After all, I've got a pretty tight connection with the Big Guy. Heck, we even outrank those Jesuit youngsters. Heck, even the Pope preferred Benedict to Jesui -- or whatever the popey name would be.
I eagerly await my acceptance to your blog. Please know that your associations with me will bring you nothing less thanHumiliations Galorelots of progress towards your own personal sainthood.

Wow, we done got ourselves a saint. St. Steph. I hope people don't confuse her with Sr. Steph, who hasn't been canonized just yet....it's in the works though, I hear. ;)
Yeah, I noticed that too. Wait till my prioress hears about that! :-)
