Yeah, gotta love the Poets, 'specially since Third Verse. I mostly spare my roommate from it, more cuz I expect him to do likewise than any other reason.

As for joy, you know that Christian walk thing everyone keeps talking about? Well, I think I'm running. Either that or I wasn't moving at all before. If you take my meaning...

I understand completely... and am a little jealous. smiley - winkeye I've been crawling lately, but mainly that's my fault...

As for the Poets, I tend to put "Firefly" on continuous repeat... I love that song... smiley - smiley

ditto. It's kinda funny at my Church. The church administrator and I are presumably the only people who listen to that type of music. We kind of keep it quiet because Fundamental Baptists are traditionally against rock of any kind. Anyway, he occasionally can't restrain himself about a particularly good song and qoutes the lyrics in a sermon. (Sorry about the ramble) To make a long story short, Firefly made the cut.

Pretty well... everyone in my dorm went home again this weekend, but that's really okay. I sorta like the time to myself to just laze around and be a bum. Well, moreso than I am normally, anyway. smiley - winkeye I just got done seranading those who *are* here on the piano downstairs... I stink at it, but I love playing piano. smiley - smiley

How was your weekend?

Makes me glad I live in "the most wired town in America". Not that my computer doesn't have the odd pixie or whatsit, but our network takes itself very seriously. smiley - winkeye

Ours has a tendancy to just decide to shut down now and again... makes it very difficult to talk to people off campus who are expensive long distance...
