The vacation is drawing to a close

I just wish that I had experienced my vacation at the same rate of time that I experienced while I was waiting for my vacation.

Saying goodbye to my mother yesterday was difficult as ever; but I didn't even sniffle until I saw here watching me from the nursing home window; when she saw me she waved goodbye.

When I was leaving town, I saw a church sign that said, "Evolution is to science what quackery is to medicine."

I'm still trying to make out what they meant for that to mean.

That's got to be hard, saying goodbye to your mom especially if she's in a nursing home.

I must admit, I LOLed when I read that bit from the church sign. By "quackery" one usually is referring to snake oil medicine or ridiculous medical claims that are totally unfounded with no scientific evidence to back them up. Which is pretty damn ironic considering that Creationism is just that.

It is tough saying goodbye, and it never gets easier.

Surely that should be creationism, not evolution. Maybe they were retorting to a use of those words by the anti-creationists?

I feel like they were trying to make some sort of scathing observation, and failed miserably.
