Bob Marley And The Wailers: Rasta Revolution (1974). I'm not going to pretend to know a thing about reggae. (Because I don't :). But I can tell that this is a great album! The songs mellow me out (which might not be good considering I've been pretty mellow lately), and the rhythms and bright, colorful instrumentation make my bop and sway every now and then. In other news, there is no other news. I've done badly with an online class for two weeks, but the third time is the charm. Of course the little Instant Messenger Devils occassionally whisper "Resistance is futile" but I exorcise them with a little "Souls Almighty", courtesy of Bob Marley.

Meet Thrash: Robot In Disguise
Well, I was going to let people suggest a name for this transformer, but I wanted to call him Thrash (after "Thrasymachus" from Plato's Republic), and I just realized there could be no other name. Without further ado, meet Thrash:
It's not just his name: he can and will thrash you.

Ants are slowly eating away my walls and floor. I vacuum several hundred up rather regularly (it's kind of fun), and suggested that they are getting a bit testy and will probably kill me in my sleep one night. One person wrote me a poem as a pre-mortem funeral dedication (thanks Alydia!) :

Your belated christmas gift is that you get to invent your own title
Most of my creative energy is being sapped by a Creative Writing class (which is excellent). Most of my analytical energy is being sapped by Greek (inductive method = figure it out yourself, wimp). Sometimes life gets busier and more difficult than we like; the whiney dude inside me (blameshifting) pipes up and says "It's not fun anymore." Strangely enough, I'm struggling to write anything else, but that's probably due to over-exposure to Greek.
Here are my classes: Proverbs [2] (online), Greek II [4], Creative Writing [3], Theology VI [3] (Systems and Separations), Senior Theology Seminar (ie ORAL EXAMINATIONS ARGH) [1], Geology [2], Wilderness Ministry Leadership [3]. Really no clue what that last one is going to be about or how tough it will be - all I knew was that it was an easy way to fill 3 needed credits and get a trip on the Appalachian Trail over spring break.
Besides that, I have some minor unofficial extracurricular stuff. A little boxing / exercise in the early morning, sparring once or twice a week, and some piano and guitar in the evenings before I go to sleep. I'm looking forward to loading photos off of my Christmas camera but am squeezed for time - my slow computer makes the whole thing a bit of a process.
I am listening to Contabile for Violoncello and Orchestra OP. 11 by Tchaikovsky, and off to bed; it feels great to have finally gotten a minor update on the blog.
