Personal

The other day I was shaving with my electric razor, battling the persistent facial hair that never seems to tire of growing, and I really thought nothing of it. It was all quite ordinary. Once I had finished, I thought perhaps it was time for a recharge (I don’t often remember to do that…) so,…

We just finished watching an episode of Quantum Leap tonight. (We can’t get away from Scott Bakula… we’re also watching the second season of Star Trek Enterprise right now…) 🙂 Quantum Leap was about a scientist who found a way to travel through time within his own lifetime. Something went wrong though, and he ended…

I am still smiling from all that transpired tonight. We did a concert at Chill and Grill tonight – a local eatery with the best ice cream deal in town. The slogan is, “That’s a SMALL?” 🙂 It’s a great place, owned by a great guy, and we were happy to be playing there tonight….

If I really take the time today, I could write a lot of stuff. I have not taken time this week at all to post thoughts or happenings to this fun e-version of my head. I might just take the morning to do that. 🙂 It’s a beautiful day here! No humidity, no heat, just…

I sang this song every school day from grades 4-6. Crazy. CHORUS:Gloria al bravo puebloQue el yugo lanzó,La Ley respetandoLa virtud y honor. ¡Abajo Cadenas! ¡Abajo Cadenas!Gritaba el Señor;Gritaba el Señor.Y el pobre en su choza,Libertad pidió.A este santo nombreTembló de pavor,El vil egoismoQue otra vez triunfó; A este santo nombre,A este santo nombreTembló de…

Recently, following the post on Contrived vs Spontaneous Christianity, I had a few conversations with friends re: the thoughts posted there. I am still chewing on all of that (my thoughts and theirs) so I thought I would post some of them here this morning. Here is an IM conversation with a friend re: all…

Last week I linked to a blog post by my friend Dave about “dangerous thinking”. If you clicked over to that, perhaps it gave you pause as it did me that whatever “truth” God is teaching us at the moment can be super dangerous in our attitude toward other people. Knowledge can “puff up” as…

We had some friends over tonight. It was a blast! They are really fun people, and we all enjoy being together. We are all currently going through a parenting video course together, but we have connected at various points of life before this. We are not doing the course in the month of July for…
