Alright, Alright

Due to the incessant whining of my friend Ryan, I am writing my first new post in a long while. I haven't updated because no one reads this, and my life is boring. But Ryan feels that this is no excuse. So, I am writing in it again. If you'll note there is a new logo. Credit for that goes to Ryan. It defaults to the way it is right now, but I kinda like it. So about my life. Nothing new really. School, sleep, eating, frisbee, church. All in all, not much to say about it. There was a recent Resolved (College ministry) Retreat at the church this weekend. There was some worship and we listened to a message. Then came a violent game (many actually) of dodge ball. Lots of fun, especially when David would go scampering across the middle in his ridiculous way. After dodge ball, the party moved into some crazy dancing to 80s music. That in turn changed to swing dancing. By the end of the night I had blisters on my feet from soo much activity. All the girl left to stay a family's house and the guys slept in a classroom upstairs. No one really slept that night. I tossed and turned all night. I only had a sleeping bag, and invariably, when I sleep in one, I end up directly on the floor with the bag on top. One of my friends was working on a computer project all night. The night was punctuated by typing and occasionally a quietly uttered "Crap!" Now, I don't know about you, but I find repetitive ambient noise relaxing and comforting. I guess I'm weird, because no one else in the room like it. There was a ceiling fan and after about an hour it got turned off. A couple of hours later my friend David jumped up and burst out "I can't take it anymore!", yanked the ticking clock off the wall and deposited it in another room. Oookay. I don't think I slept at all, but reports from the guys say that I was snoring for a bit so I must have dozed off for a few minutes. A couple of girls were coming by around 8 am to get breakfast ready, so I got up to help them (and make a sweet morning playlist) knowing I wouldn't sleep anyway. By 9:30 the rest of the girls had arrived and the guys had stumbled down. We ate together, regaling each other with stories from the night. After breakfast we had a discussion and some worship and then left. And some of us went to McDonald's for lunch. And that was the weekend for me.
