I'll say Tim Guess's preaching is getting better and better.

I look forward to meeting William Billings in heaven - how happy must be to no longer be crippled!

Went with Brother Zack to visit Sister Nell who is one of the most amazing people I know - she couldn't stop saying good things about the Lord and while she is staring death in the face, she ain't afraid one iota.

man this was a good day - positive thinking does wonders!

"I'm going to forgive for Christ's sake. See, that's the domino that won't fall - forgiveness thwarts Satan's plans!" - Elder Mark Hasenmeyer

Went to Joes with Dominos and watched the Memphis Redbirds lose an extra-innings heart-breaker in the AAA-Baseball National Championship.

ran 20 minutes - the official beginning of my training for the race in December - and watched monday night football with joe and michael over a lager and steak.

Been studying all day for my first test of the semester - it's in Strategic Management, if you care to know - teach gave us a pool of about 210 mc questions covering three chapters from which 30 or 40 will be selected for the test; if you allow enough time to study them all (which I have accomplished moderately well) it's really a pretty good way to go.

Being at peace with God is an element of sanctification and Isaiah says in chapter 53 that "the chastisement of our peace was upon him" which tells me that Christ's death on the cross affected not only our permanent salvation, but also has far-reaching effects into our daily lives - we may be assured God is interested in the details of our lives.

Leno, don't think you win because you get to host a touching story of apologetics. No, you are playing host to an ego-stroking show, starring Jay Leno as The Stroker and Kanye West as The Ego.

People, don't be fooled by Kanye's semantics. You think he is admitting post-fact "I know it was wrong" and "it was rude" because he is interested in making things right? Forget it - its a slap-in-the-face to the public for him to imply he didn't realize it was the wrong thing to do until after-the-fact. He is either slapping you in the face or he is proving to himself to have the maturity of a child - or both. Apologizing is the next act in the Ego play and he will keep saying it as long as it gets him in the spotlight. Leno should win Best Supporting Actress.

I was going to post some deep thoughts tonight, but I ran out of time - so instead, I am studying Quantitative Tools.

I very happily announce that my phone decided to commence working yesterday, so we all good - furthermore, we got a ton of rain today, and I am actually going to start doing homework regularly as of tonight.

Went to a Memphis Redbirds game tonight with Daddy, Harris and Joe, and they won, thereby sealing a spot in the PCL Championship Series!

My phone is partially dysfunctional and replacing it would cost $50 because the warranty is expired- I am not very happy about this.

Who am I, Lord, that thou art mindful of me?

The Rangers won 2 games and the Cardinals won theirs - it's been a good day!

Came home from Arkansas where Sarah Green married Brad Irby, played a whoppin good game of Hearts with Aunt Pam, Rebekah and Logan, and after getting home mowed the yard and played basketball with the guys and watched Fracture with Anthony Hopkins.

I can imagine that Kevin Costner has a really good tenor singing voice.

At our birthday party Ethan and I, along with Dan and Logan sang this.

Since my present and mandatory schedule prohibits me from being in Singers this semester, I opted to join the Memphis Symphony Chorus (meeting only once a week, instead of 3 times for Singers), which will be collaborating with the University Singers on two occasions, so I reckon it's the next best thing.
