Wednesday: PS3

Well, the PS3 came today. It also came with the wrong version of Rock Band which was disappointing. However, the cables unexpectedly came too, so that was nice. We ended up renting a movie (the Netflix timing was a little messed up) to watch and it looked really nice.

Tuesday: Waiting in the queue

The dumb warcraft queue has started again. You have 187 people that need to get on before I stop writing. This will equal about six minutes of typing. Oh, seven. Why is it going up?!

1. Today work was pretty good. I feel incredibly inadequate because I'm only working about 4 hours/week overtime and everyone else is doing 20+. Oh so it feels. But it's probably true. I know it's because I don't have any specific programs to be working on or floor support (just my excel programs), but I feel dumb nevertheless. Anyway, I showed one program that got a good response and almost finished a second. I'll need more work here soon, but I doubt it will be a problem.
2. We went to a Bible Study tonight. The study was good. We played "WoW (as in the Christian music) trivia stuff". The girls made a comeback the first game after getting hard questions while the boys got easy ones. It was funnier.
3. All of our sheets are in the drier. Nope. That's a lie. Only one sheet is in the drier, but all of the bottom sheets got washed this morning so it has to dry before I can go to bed.
4. Well, I'm at less than a minute. You didn't quite get seven minutes worth of writing because Ben and I talked about the work dumbness. Er, actually I vented, Ben co-miserated, and we solved nothing.
5. Also, here is Flurry:

Monday: not much new

1. Work was almost slow today...tomorrow it will pick back up.
2. Discover (the credit card) seems to have a really slow e-mail system.
3. We just killed the first boss in Black Temple.
4. I've throughly enjoyed the last few PhD comics. They really hit the spot (about journal club).
5. I'm ready to get some real desks. I'm sick of repacking boxes every time we need to find something officy.

Sunday: church thoughts

Well, we didn't go to church again this week because Ben had a headache. That really isn't the problem though. The problem is that I didn't want to go to church. We haven't found a church that we love...we realize there were some problems with the Vineyard, but we really liked a lot of stuff about it. The one we are now thinking about is somewhat far away...about 25 min (although soon to be 30 min). I feel like I have so many excuses and none of them really hold any water.

And I can definetly tell a lack of fellowship with other Christians has affected my walk with God...
I'm in the perfect mood for my favorite sad songs. I have several others in the queue this time too, but these are the two I always come back to. It is well with my soul by Audio Adrenaline and "More than Just Enough" by Sara Luneack.

I would like to note that God has been extremely faithful.

Saturday: Flamingos and bowling

Well Friday night Dusty was standing around on one leg, which prompted me to act like a flamingo. I didn't have my camera with me, so the next night we took so more of Dusty standing around like a silly normal person and me standing around like a flamingo. Oh, I forgot to mention that everyone thought my arms/wings looked odd.



Bowling: Dusty and Laura, Ben as a Turkey.

Satruday: Heart attack due to door

So, we had previously bought an over-the door towel hook for our bathroom. However, it turns out that those aren't great for the door frame (at least in our case). So we go and get a screw-into the door towel hook.

We check the size of the screws...safe.
We remind ourselves to not drill all the way through the door...check.
I start drilling...thud. Heart attack. We drilled through the door.
We check the door...no holes on the other side.
We stand around in relief for a bit...phew.
We learn something about some doors...they might be hollow.

Wednesday: Hump day

Well, today was fine. I was going to the restroom an outside there was a sign that said "Incident 123587." Since it sounded like someone died or was raped in there I did pause, but then decided I would try my luck anyway. After getting inside, it looked as though one of the toilets just had problems.

I'm thinking about getting this: It's a hand warmer for your mouse and mouse hand.
