As to the blog's title change, that is.

I had been toying with the idea of some other kind of communication, but seeing as I've got the disorder known as Asperger's Autism, and that coupled with inattentive ADD, having more than one venue is going to, well, not work.  I had considered vlogging, but ever since I contracted mono at age 18, I've have even worse problems with speech.  And I was a speech champ in 8th grade.

So, I've adjusted everything to reflect more efficiently the life of the author.  I am reclusive, not only because of the autism and ADD, but also because of -- ta da -- gasoline prices.  (Am I kidding?  Only a little).

I am in the South (North Carolina, to be exact), and the "Traddie" is short for "Traditionalist"--I prefer what is now called the "Extraordinary Form of the Mass," which used to be called the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM).

And there you have it--the explanation for my blog's title change, that is.

Permit me to leave you with the challenge of the day: if you're going to pray for rain, carry an umbrella.

Blessings, Gemma
