Archangels, Musicals, and Blizzards

So I am reading this book called The Nameless Day by Sara Douglass. It is about a friar in early Europe – mid to late 14th century. He is visited by the archangel Michael and sent on a quest to save the world from satan’s minions.

But is it Michael that is really guiding this man? That is the question.

I find this book intriguing because I don’t know where the author is going with this idea. The friar’s beliefs as well as that of the supposed archangel is very negative toward women. But that is also in keeping with the times. Most of our history since Christianity was invented has been very negative where women are concerned.

I’m anxious to see where this story goes. Who is good, who is bad. Where redemption truly lies.

I watched part of The Girl Most Likely last night on TCM.
It was a so-so little musical starring Jane Powell. I love to watch TCM because the movies they show come from such a different time. I love the innocence, style, and outlook these movies had. Drugs, drunks, guns, and hate hardly ever factor into any of these movies. Even the suspense movies don’t have bad guys on the level of today’s monsters. It’s refreshing to watch something that doesn’t offend the eyes and ears at every turn of the projector.
