Ummm, I’m tired. I thought maybe I shouldn’t post anything, seeing as I’m too tired to write anything remotely interesting. But then I wrote this. Sorry. What do you expect at this ungodly hour (9:36pm)? I’m gonna take a nap. Then I’m going to bed.

Does anybody have a copy of Manchester’s two-part biography of Winston Spencer Churchill I could peruse? I’m considering buying them as summer reading, which I may want to get a jump start on sometime next week.
Just for fun, some Churchill quotes:
Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of [...]

Paul has an annoying habit–endearingly annoying–of putting his cold feet on me while I’m trying to sleep. He tried it yesterday. So I got up, got the cat (who was outside in the freezing cold), brought the cat to the bed, and put the cat’s cold feet on him. He thought they were cold. I [...]

All the interviews are over. Most of them even went fairly well, I think. Several sites I like, several that are just ok. Now I’ve got to decide which of them I prefer and submit a ranking of them. On February 24th I’ll know if I get matched, and on the 27th I will know [...]

If we have difficulty learning the depth of our own sinfulness, we have even more difficulty learning the depth and extent of God’s love for us. Because I myself understand so imperfectly and poorly how well and thoroughly God loves me, I tend to love others less well than I ought. Instead of starting with [...]

It strikes me that I, and probably most Christians I know, have a poor conception of exactly what Christ’s life and work were for. Not just “getting saved,” or getting forgiven of sin. But what Christ enabled us to do and focus on in everyday life. The husband and I were up until 1 a.m. [...]

I had a great interview today. Not because I was particularly stunning, but because this is a really great site. They went out of their way to present their program to the applicants. I felt more that I was there to learn about their opportunities offerred, rather than to give them the hard sell on [...]

Interview number one is down. I’ve had more articulate, less scattered moments, but it went ok. I get nervous and then suddenly I can’t remember how to speak English and my hand gestures become more frantic than normal. Hopefully someone will find it endearing, or assume I’m some sort of eccentric genius. Fat chance.
Interview number [...]

Well, the heartland of California is still there. Turlock has in fact “grown”–I believe today’s edition of the Modesto Bee said the city is doing battle with Wal-Mart. Turlock is trying to keep a store the size of Vermont from being built inside city limits. In addition to legal battles, they’ve also got 2 Sonics, [...]

Off to the Great…uh…Brown…Cold! Great white north doesn’t fit. No snow, but the air is redolent with the smell of cow manure. Thanks to Lori for feeding/visiting the cat. I think I miss the cat more than she misses me. Probably celebrating having the house to herself.
So have a glorious weekend everyone. And if [...]
