1) …and I still have a lot of studying to do.

2) I was supposed to finish designing a poster for church today so I could get it to the printer tomorrow, but I just gave up. I can’t make it work.

3) After approximately 36 hours away from my wife, I’ve come to the conclusion that I wouldn’t make it as a bachelor. I’ve hardly left my desk in that time.

4) I fly home the day after tomorrow. I might already be on west coast time. I’m not really sure.

5) It’s 51 degrees outside. Weird.

6) I feel* like I have something semi-intersting to share, but I can’t think of what it is. It seems like something worth mentioning must have happened since I last wrote something here, but all I can remember is studying.

7) I’m trying to decide which books to take for the trip home. I’m gonna try to limit myself to 3 or 4. Here are the candidates:

1. Business for the Glory of God: The Bible’s Teaching on the Moral Goodness of Business, by Wayne Grudem.
2. Why Is My Choice of a Bible Translation So Important?, by Wayne Grudem. (I have to review these 2 Grudem books, plus one more, before I start classes up again.)
3. The Gospel in a Pluralist Society, by Leslie Newbigin.
4. Religious Affections, by Jonathan Edwards.
5. One City, which is a collection of short stories, or one story (not really sure) written by a couple of Edinburgh writers.
6. Christian Apologetics, by Cornelius Van Til. (I’ve read about 60% of it, I’ll finish it the next time I have an hour to spare).
7. Benjamin Franklin’s Autobiography.

I think those are all the candidates. Feel free to help me narrow (or make alternate suggestions).

I could use some new music. I think I’ve listened to my entire iTunes collection several times in the last 2 weeks. I’m looking forward to the new DW.

9) It seems like it’s the same people who complain about being told “happy holidays” instead of “merry Christmas” whose churches are gonna be closed on Christmas. I’m sure there’s a contradiction in there somewhere. (Watch me try to sneek something serious in this otherwise mundane post.)

10) I might be getting a sore throat. But then again, maybe not. I probably just need to sleep.

11) I think that’s it for now. I’m gonna go for a walk and oxygenate my brain. More interesting posts will resume shortly.

* Internal monologue debates whether or not to change feel to thing, cuz, you know, what sense did I feel that with?
