- Finished my first workshop for school. Even though I’ve done online classes in the past, this is going to be much less of an individual event. The classrooms are much more structured online for UOP than my previous experience (Rio Salado).
- I’ve finished my last Sunday doing lights for a while. There are several reasons that I’m no longer doing it…the most pressing is that I just live too far away to come back later in the day, and I don’t think that two different people running lights is a feasible plan. But I could be wrong. And it’s no longer my concern.
- I don’t know what to say about my friendship/relationship with pretty girl. We haven’t seen each other since last weekend, and she didn’t come over to see me at church today. I’m sure I’ll see her tomorrow…but I don’t really think this is going to go anywhere. The good thing is, though, that I’m starting to realize a couple of things about what I would want from a relationship (and not just her qualities). One thing that I realized I need is someone that will be available for interaction more than once a week…and not just at group functions. So many women that I meet are just busy, busy, busy. Now, maybe they’re just blowing me off. Probably the case, at least sometimes. However, I believe that we make time for what’s important…and if I’m not important enough to spend one on one time, keep moving. Or maybe it’s just me…and I’m not discounting that possibility, either.
- I’m bringing zucchini bread to the potluck tomorrow, if it turns out ok. It’s in the oven now.
- It’s been a good week for politics. Those of you that read this blog regularly (both of you), realize that I’m a Republican. But when I look across the aisle at Obama, I see someone that is philosophically different that me…but doesn’t seem to be morally bankrupt. I don’t care for his foreign policy beliefs, and several other planks in his platform. It’s also exciting to see an African-American nominated for the Presidency, and the fact that America has advanced in race relations enough for this to happen. Can he gain enough votes to win? To me, that’s going to be the $64,000 question.
- Also, I’m encouraged by McCain’s pick for VP. I can’t say I know enough yet about Sarah Palin, but initial reports seem encouraging. But his pick seems to be unexpected to even those much more familiar with politics than good ol’ Bubba. No matter how this election turns out, it will be exciting, and no matter who wins, I think that man is going to represent the United States to the best of his ability. I haven’t been able to say that in a long time.
- The zucchini bread should have been done by now…but still looking pretty soggy. Didn’t even test to see if it was done.
- I finally got all my CDs ripped and on my computer. Since I didn’t renew Yahoo Music Unlimited, I’m going to have to sign up for Rhapsody at some point…but I’m delaying it for now. When I look at what I spend on entertainment in a month, I have a lot of trouble putting out another $15 a month. *sigh*
- During sermon today at church: anyone collecting a welfare check in the United States is in the top 2% of the world’s wealthiest people. Wow.
- Cornerstone just launched a video, “Experience Cornerstone”. I found out this morning…when they told me I was in it. I just saw it…I had no idea I was being filmed. Not sure I know what to think about how I look…although I didn’t think I looked fat, so that’s good.
- I have really missed walking and riding my bike this week, as I’m still attempting to rest up to heal my ribs. Bonus: my back is now also starting to hurt from whatever I’m doing to compensate for my left half hurting. I apologize to anyone I ran into at church that didn’t think I was my usual, friendly self. I wasn’t.
- I am going to start pushing for donations for my Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk. I also have a couple of local events I’m going to be at to raise money. Please contact me ASAP if you’re interested in helping locally. If you want to donate, please go to the top right of the page. A huge thank you if you’ve already donated!
- Well, time to get cleaning again. Y’all be good.
