what kind of prof gives homework on the first day of class? even if it's not a difficult assignment, finding the motivation to do it is damn near impossible, despite the fact that i'm doing absolutely nothing else.
i love my new phone. just thought i'd throw that out there.
kate, brenna, and i found ourselves in arden hills tonight eating at flaherty's bowling alley/pub. the initial plan was to go to brenna's in shoreview to eat spaghetti and make theatre t-shirts, but that did not happen. as we ate, the weather outside grew dark and foreboding. the weather channel claimed that there was a tornado not too far away. we did not want to venture into the storm, so we stayed and bowled instead. i, for the most part, kicked ass. my total at the end of three games blew everyone else out of the water. what can i say? i am the daughter of a bowling goddess.
two classes and the london meeting tomorrow, then it's off to lake elmo for the night and the state fair all day saturday. we will eat and walk and walk and eat and hear music and eat and walk. it'll be swell.
sunday? well, sunday will be for laying around, doing homework (unless there isn't any. wouldn't that be great?), and watching a marathon of the 4400 on usa, which will conclude with the season finale. man oh man.
i bought a book at borders yesterday. "the deity formerly known as god," by jarrett stevens; he's a pastor from georgia. c.s. lewis is quoted on the back of the book, saying "i do not want my image of god, i want god." the author describes this book as a remix of one that was writted in 1952 ("your god is too small," by j.b. phillips). basically it's about reshaping the destructive images of god that we have formed over the years and replacing them with positive ideas. the first half of the book focuses on destructive images that we have, the second half on constructive images. i like the idea.
well. it's going to be a busy semester. unless i can count that research thing as a two credit internship instead of a four credit independent study, i'm going to have to turn it down. i need to be able to work, too - the kind of work where a paycheck is involved.
back to the grind. oo-rah.
ps: i totally managed to plug fibs & fables in this journalism assignment. i win.
