*Deep Breath*…

OK, here goes (if you care to know):

> Let’s see – I got back from choir tour – in one piece – and here’s a picture for you:

Yes, good people – this is Isaac and his, uh… rather inventive way of heating up his chicken sandwhich. (Never mind that there was a microwave oven in the room behind him.)

> I too managed, along with probably half of the choir at least, to show symptoms of a cold in the days following choir tour. The good news, though, is that it was a pretty mild cold and the misery was at a minimum. (Hallelujah!)

> No, I won’t be posting a ton of pictures from choir tour here. If you want to see pictures, go see my Facebook. (If you’re not my friend, ask to be. If you don’t have a Facebook account, get one and then ask to be my friend. If you don’t know what Facebook is I can’t help you.)

> HOMEWORK!!! *sob* …I think that about covers it.

> Graduation is coming up and I have no idea what I’m going to do after I graduate. Of course, I might not have to worry about that if I don’t figure out the homework thing….

> I got a phone call yesterday (Saturday) afternoon and now I’m working on a video for the Jr. / Sr. / Valentines Banquet. Oh boy, do I have some work to do! It will probably be only 10 min. long, but in editing terms – that’s a few hours worth of work.

> I love the warm weather. I hope it lasts. Last Friday was so nice I went down to Riverfront and rollerbladed in the new section of park for a while. Very nice.

> Ok, this is kind of short but I think this post is done.





Two Birds with One Stone

27 01 2009

The following has been copied and pasted from Facebook. I actually get a new post on my blog and I satisfy the Facebook community with 25 things that have absolutely no relevance to a more fulfilled and productive life.


So I’ve been tagged twice – first in “25 Things” and then in “25 Things About Me.” To save space (and because I don’t want to try to think of 50 things to write :-D ) I’m going to combine them and write 25 things. Some will be random and some will be about me.

Works for me.

So here goes:

 

1. I hope I can think of 25 things that won’t be to completely mindless.
2. I love music. (I’m listening to it right now. Well maybe not right now…. I was when I wrote this.)
3. I’ve never gone bungee-jumping. I want to though – I think.
4. I love snow skiing.
5. I play the bass guitar.
6. I’ve been to Paris and Rome.

7. I want to visit London.
8. I’ve never wished I had a pet hamster so I could name him Hammie. No, really.
9. I’m not very good at math.
10. I like writing, spelling, grammar, and all that other stuff that a lot of people dislike so much.
11. I hope I don’t go and misspell something in the post. That wouldn’t look verry good.
12. Ha, you thought you caught me! Yes, I know I misspelled “goode.”
13. I almost got my legs cut off by a train.
14. Not everyone knows how to pronounce my last name correctly – even though it’s only 4 letters long. Kinda funny actually.
15. The Cleveland Indians are my favorite sports team.
16. Most (OK, maybe make that all) of my family are Pittsburgh Steelers fans. I’m a Cleveland Browns fan. Yeah, fun.
17. I promise # 13 is true.
18. I’ve never been pulled over by a cop – not at the time of writing this anyway.
19. I can read (some) Koine Greek. (Pronounced coy’-nay)
20. I have a bad reaction to Novocaine. (Yes, it stinks. Especially when you have to get work done on your teeth.)
21. June 17, 1789 – In France, the Third Estate declares itself the national assembly. (OK, that’s from Wikipedia.)
22. I promise #18 is true too.
23. I hope someone out there in the world of Facebook enjoys this post of 25 things.
24. The spell checker just flagged “Facebook” in #23. Something’s wrong here don’t you think?
25. All those people who find the genie who gives them three wishes need to get smart. If a genie offered me three wishes, the first thing I’d do is ask for unlimited wishes. (Maybe that’s why a genie hasn’t offered me three wishes – he’s no dummy.)
26. I don’t need a genie to give me number 26 in a 25 point list. :-)
