take it easy, bro!
Jul. 25th, 2003 10:22 amHAPPY BIRTHDAY, SHANA! I hope you have a great birthday, and I pray for many blessings for you in the coming year! :) A card is on its way to you.
Day 4 without power at the apartment. I spent last night at my parents'. Evan came over for a while, and we had a nice time despite the power repeatedly going out again and then coming back on. My dad said they were resetting the electrical grids. It was very disorienting- it finally came back on for good at about 2 am, and I woke up wondering why I was suddenly cold and why there were lights on. Kathy, who stayed at her parents', checked up on Gandalf this morning. One of us may have to take him if we stay out again tonight; I'm worried about leaving him for so long in the heat.
I've been constantly starving ever since this thing started. I guess the heat is making me hungry. I'll have to forage for food again at lunchtime, since only a few places are open. Yesterday I spent half an hour in the Back Yard Burgers drive-thru.
Okay, I'm sure you guys are sick of hearing about all this. Let's talk about something else. Ummm...I'm a few chapters into Desiring God. It's good, but I'm having a hard time focusing on it, so I started By Design and am finding that a lot more interesting. I don't know why the more meaty books are so hard for me to get into. If I were a Good Presbyterian, I'd have, like, the entire works of Calvin memorized by now. As it is, C.S. Lewis is the only theologian I can consistently read without getting bored. Oh, and R.C. Sproul. And whoever wrote that Esther book - Swindoll? Kathy agrees with me and says it's easier to read books that tell some sort of story, rather than expound on something. Lewis, especially, has a way of making everything seem like an interesting story. What do you guys think?
I have decided that Weezer's blue album is one of the greatest albums ever made. I never get tired of it.
Okay, I'm audi.
