Regulate or Die

Funny or Die's Presidential Reunion from Will Ferrell

Watch it, and then watch it again.

Not getting a twitter

I may think in twitter length quotes sometimes but I'm not getting an account. But here are a few recent ones.

"Everybody bemoans the loss of the youth and teens.
But when you ask them who is engaging, mentoring,
and discipling youth no one will raise their hands." -Me

"Make new Christians, Not borrow Christians." -Me

"There are wild mushroom eaters, and there are those
who are watchin' wild mushroom eaters." -Erwin Mcmanus

I got a pair of good ones of a couple tea bag tags.

"Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate."
and
"Minds, like parachutes, work only when they are open." -Salada tea bag tags

doodlin'

So way back in May I was at District Assembly. Since I'm still young, creative, and a little flippant I doodled a bit. Anyway After 3 days of staring at our denominational banner I doodled and made what I would call a masterpiece. It is at least from the dove's perspective.

Life Learnin'

Tonight I went to a party with a cotton candy machine.

Tonight I ate cotton candy with a hot dog as a stick.

It was so much fun!

Cotton Candy machine, Bouncy Castle (did a backflip), and an improv game of what we called 'awesome ball'. Using chairs as a net, a beachball that is to big for me to even hug, and roughly volleyball style rules we played for a good 30 min. in the rain. Plus before I left and said my goodbyes I got drawn on by my friend. She did a pretty good job.

It might sound like a kids birthday party but it wasn't, it was a grad party. But with just a little child-like wonder Adults can have all kinds of fun that doesn't include sitting and gorging on food, or napping the day away.

If I try and model Jesus in my life, it means I get to go party with the people who don't go to church. Which means I get to go to the parties where people know what it means to rejoice!

I Love my friends, so does Jesus, which makes it so much better.

They're past the side hug. We are verbal about telling each other how much we appreciate each other and we do it often. There is so much 'church folk' can learn.

Broad Strokes

If Acts ch 2 shows us how the early church functioned,

the Epistles show us how it dysfunctioned. -Me

Why I love Ski School

We had our end of season employee party last night. I've always said instructors are just smart people. Trying to explain away how they all have other really cool jobs. Over breakfast I was reflecting instead on the variety of conversations I had last night. Remodeling, summer plans, riding the mechanical bull, catching up on the goings on of our friends. Later it got deep. I began talking to a variety of people about the electron pathway of mitochondria, the relative size of protons and animal cells, determinism, philosophical equations, the origin of ethics, trisomy, and the force. This is the only group of people I know that can talk so throughly about such variety. That is why I love ski school.

Update

As I've said before this is the bad blog. Which conveniently allows me to not update for long periods of time! But winter is over which usually means I have more time on my hands to do things like this.

Tuesday I went to class. I got really excited and distracted in Bio to head to Stowe for the end of year AASI exam. Then I went to World History, tuesday she had the "white guilt" up to 11. We got to talk about all the pre WW2 genocide around the world. It was awesome... So then I was so upset after class that I just skipped lab and rode up to Vermont. It was totally awesome I recommend it to everyone.

Must finish paper...
