Hi Jake. I see your mind.

And you're not taking any ring to Sauron.

Man, I have said a lot of sappy things that I may or may not, for better or worse, feel slightly embarrassed over.  But I think I meant them all!  Every last word.  So I'm an idealist!  And full of emotions of every sort!  Deal with it.  Matt.  Sheesh.  I will make no apologies for my swinging back and forth from morose to overjoyed!

Officially,  I am always full of joy.  Officially, for real, and forever.  Jesus is all about that.

I need to endeavor to change my default face from about-to-pass-out to hi-how-are-you?!  I've had to fend off "is something wrong's?" almost daily since kindergarten because of how tired/grumpy I always look.  It's simply not the case.

 See what I mean?  Who wants to talk to that guy?

I have probably 200 pages of reading assigned for this Friday.  And I haven't even procrastinated all that much... I don't know if I will take another class from Kristen Parris if I don't ace her this quarter.  Bah.  It's probably good for me.

Calebe STEEEgiiiiile (jake's [and my!] friend)  This weekend is winter camp. so no CCF.  We could bump our movie plans up to tomorrow instead of Sunday.

I so badly do not want to work food again.  But I have to work something eventually...and the pickings seem slim.

I only got up 22 minutes late today. (6:22) and ran to Edens and back. For breakfast I had a breakfast burrito (scrambled eggs, bacon, colby-jack cheese).  Will my talents ever stop emerging?

Lunch was leftover pizza rolls, and dinner will likely be tuna on wheat if nothing better comes along.

Words I've run into that I had to look up today:
Ecumenical
Ex post facto
Sine qua non
Paucity
Salient
Augur
Nascent

See how smart I am now? Yeah.  That's right.

Grace, grace, God's grace.  Grace that is greater than all my sin...laalaalaaaaaaaalaaaa.

Now There's a friendly face! (Batman of course.)

What ever happened to that "currently listening" bit I did for about two days in November?  Well,  FYI, it's The end credits to Cast Away,  the Pride and Prejudice Soundtrack, and some Chopin.  It's a piano sort've day.
