  • Anne Shirley reads my mind, especially regarding an exciting prospective job in Dayton: >>"I've put out a lot of little roots these two years," Anne told the moon, "and when I'm pulled up they're going to hurt a g…

  • Evan kicked my high score's ass last night! 450 in a Scrabble game! 381 wasn't a shabby score on my part, but comparatively speaking!... Well, we're just gurus. I thought my 430 was good months ago, but he's topped t…

  • WELCOME BACK, STUDENTS Sometimes, I really miss school.

  • Yay for tripped-out books! I think I'm on page 40, having read a book and a half between starting this monster and picking it up again this afternoon. Wolfe just started describing the main character's first encounter …

  • I have to wash my hair, the dishes, and some laundry today, but I think that finishing this book will be my first priority. Mama came and went. We got wedding rings, bridesmaid dresses, alteration, shoes, florist, j…

  • Relationships... Love... What matters to you? I stole this from the comment that max made to somebody asking about whether or not she should pursue a difficult relationship: "my ideal for a relationship is someone th…

  • So I've been thinking again about comparative religion. I have lots to say about the vastness and depth of God but no good way to do so right now. I'm going to let it stew some more and hopefully I'll get some comment…

  • I drove toward the moon tonight, that gibbous beauty. Did some work, had a bad meeting and good meeting, Steve got the Friendly's job in B'creek, chaos may ensue (in a good way). Some of the office had a kickbal…

  • This song is not on this album, but I'll listen to both tonight, so there. "Remember when you were young? You shone like the sun. Shine on, you crazy diamond!" The weekend was wonderful. On the drive back, they…

  • "Let it rain. Let it rain. Let your love rain down on me." It's beautiful here in Beavercreek. The drive was therapeutic, except for that thirty minutes during which I only made it about five miles. Right around…

  • 1. Why do grown men and women have to get cliqueish and/or act like five year olds fighting over the red marker, telling on each other and gossipping behind backs? 2. Does anybody know of a book that addresses some of…

  • Best Queen album ever! I'm not listening to it now, and I haven't listened to any in a few days, I'm sure, but my fun new pants and Friday-dom and hot chocolate for breakfast at work have created the right conditions to…

  • The actors were beautiful and their acting spare, intelligent, and excellent... but the plot was so frustrating and sad. Strangers meet, think they fall in love, and f*ck around with and on each other. I hope it's j…

  • Today: a look at some old stuff. Tomorrow: if I make time, I'll hunt down an assigment to write in the "voice" of someone famous. I'll make you guess who it is, too I just wrote this thang below: I no long…

  • I've been Xanga-prolific lately! I actually wasn't planning on posting today, but then something interesting happened at lunch. I was munching on an apple, some peanuts, and Triscuits and reading that depressing book w…

  • Why is this book so very lovely and depressing? All the love and beauty displaced, and doom on every page. I'm interested in the songs of those I did not tag as well. Enjoy your music and the rest of your weekend,…

  • I was tagged by Oscar/mezito!THE RULES:List five songs that you are currently loving. It doesn't matter what genre they are from, whether they have words, or even if they're any good, but they must be songs you're rea…

  • I finally watched Star Wars III. It made me sad, of course. I guess I wasn't convinced by the love story or maybe I'm just a hardass; I thought it was a given that Anakin should more easily choose the Light Side ove…

  • And read this guy, too.

  • I wrote this: "When I feel full of despair/desparate, I remember what God wants of me and I try to look to other people of faith who find joy in their toil. We all get discouraged, myself obviously included. This w…

  • My job, my friends, my personal situation, and my wonder at people like Oscar and maxithousand are tugging me to a certain direction again. I'm in grateful awe of people who do youth ministry, who love molding, teaching,…

  • And don't forget the Pat Green.

  • Lots of history, good movies, strange dreams, interesting conversations, Subway sandwiches, and blended coffee drinks. There's a stretch of road six miles long between my urban campus and the highwayandthelake called ML…

  • Thursday night I had sushi for the first time. Hung out with my boy, RoyBoy, and A&A. Friday brought a long day at the office. We had an Open House for prospective students. 260 families showed up, it seems.…
