I'm so excited!
No, really, I am. New things always get me excited. Except for new pimples, new rust, and new oil drippings underneath my car. But basically, new things get me excited.
So I really might start posting here daily. I think that would mainly be because I can't make myself do the work that I need to be doing. But it's also because this blog is shiny and new, and I really like it a lot more than I like(d) Xanga.
So here's my life in the shell of a nut:
Technology is back to working for me. My computer only randomly dies at reasonably spaced intervals (now that I've replaced the motherboard). My PDA is back to acknowledging touchscreen input - apparently, some screws were loose (actually, a screw was too tight. I removed it, and Voila!). My Bluetooth headset with a battery life of 373,404 (milliseconds) has been replaced, and my new one (a Scala 700) works wonderfully (except that Lorts can never understand a word I'm saying when I use it. This has always been the case, and I suspect it always will. They're genetically defective, or so I hear.).
On the other hand, my iPod is about due for an untimely death, explosion, or maddening dysfunctionality. So is my cell phone.
Classes are plodding along at the speed of the Millennium Falcon on steroids (and not the cheap-o, rub-on stuff that Barry Bonds uses either). I have a total of seven thousand, two-hundred and sixty-nine midterm exams (*I may have massaged the numbers a tad) coming up not this Thursday, but next. I can hardly wait. To buy my History book.
I am going to meet with the English Department tomorrow to see if there's anything I can do to "help" them with a project they have. I have no idea what this means, or what they want. I even doubt that they know, but we'll see. I'm not remotely ready for this kind of stress (telling a bunch of adults that I can't help them because I don't know PHP well enough), but I told them I would meet with them primarily as a character-building exercise (putting to death my man-o-phobia).
I have a hard time imagining what the blog page will look like after a post this long. I'm not sure my beloved new page design will stand the test, but I'll see in a moment.
A dash of seriousness: I would appreciate whatever prayer time anyone can spare. I'm don't think I really get the whole lovingChrist thing, and I think it shows. Ditto for readingScripture and prayer.
Hey Arathon, way to kill the mood. Or at least drastically change it.
