***Pictures
Miss K has posted all her pictures now. Go here to begin.
***Energy
I was going to exercise after picking Jameson up from school; he was off early today due to testing. But I got home, and Jameson put on “LIar, Liar” (since there’s no homework this week and I’m a pushover I gave him [...]
***It’s 12:49 AM
… and Jameson is home! More pictures have been posted at the site, but there will still be more to come!
And I’m tired.

***Update
The plane landed in DC at 6:00. So they are on the ground. At 7:30 they are supposed to have a short tour of Washington DC, they arrive at the hotel at 8:00, and they go to The Daily Grill at 8:30 for dinner (yes, the entire crew … and that’s a lot of people!)
***And [...]
***More Fun with Arcata
I just can’t help myself! It’s so much fun to read these entries. For instance, here’s one:
Sunday, July 6 12:43 a.m.
His brain, deeply alcohol-dunked
Rendered one Plaza guy so defunct
That some medics went there
Scraped him off from the square
To a clean, well-lit place for the drunk.
But that’s old (2003), so for [...]
***Fun Reading
Go here to read the Arcata Police Archives. These writers have far too much time on their hands!
***Wasted Money?
… well, I’m still not sure. I had to buy new headphones, since my little ones I use with my iPod died. Impatient as I am, I went to the Apple Store and purchased the ones [...]
***But I Want the Prize!
Boo hoo. McDonald’s is going to offer adult Happy Meals. But no prize.
Isn’t that heart breaking?
Or not.
But seriously, I guess they are trying to look like they are offering healthier meals.
I gotta tell you — I very rarely go to McD’s, but when I do it’s [...]
***The Commercialism of the Christ
Okay, okay, I know I’m sounding harsh here, but there ya go.
Everywhere I go I see things I can buy, now that Mel’s movie has made such a big splash. I see huge banners up at churches (or I did right before Easter) saying that I should attend that church to [...]
that holds these tired bones
is not our only home,
and yet we love to lie
on fresh cut grass to watch
the sky stories, or run
through sprinkler rain
and later rest on wet cement.
Breathe long and deep, inhale
the warmth. Look to the blue
above and taste the beauty
of cloud weavings.
With open arms we embrace
our Creator’s painting.
