I’ve got some time so I am gonna write, but I’m not even all that sure I have anything great to say. Ah, the power of boredom!
Thanksgiving with my family was great. I went out to my dads on Wednesday and just hung out that evening and all day on Thusday. Laurie made an unbelieveable meal and then we all took naps. It doesn’t matter how cliche that it – it’s still great.
Yesterday was just about as perfect as you can get as far as weather goes, so I decided to go for a long run. I ended up going 7 miles! That’s a new long distance for me. Today, I am paying the price with sore shoulders and a sore back.
I succeeded in getting an enormous amount of writng and studying done this weekend which should help the next 2 weeks be a bit more bearable. I finished 3 major papers – “Affluence and the Kingdom of God” for my Biblical Foundations of Mission class, a reflection paper for my class on Isaiah which I wrote as an imaginary dialogue between God and myself, and a paper on the missiological, christological, ecclesiological, and leadership implications of Paul’s letter to the Colossians. I think I feel pretty good about them, but I guess I will know for sure how to feel about them when I get my grades back (wink, wink).
So, all is good in So Cal.
Peace.
