Alternate Hypotheses
18 November 2004I found a twenty in my pocket? No.
I got flowers? No.
I got on the scale and it weighed less? No.
I got caught up on my homework?
Yes!!!
I finished the physics homework that is due on FRIDAY, The calculus that is due on FRIDAY, and finished the Core reading up to date. How did this get done, you ask? I have no idea. I was just living in the science library like I always do, and I finished my calculus and looked in my bag to see what else was due, when it hit me: There was nothing else due until Monday!!!! What?!?!? I exclaimed, certain that I was forgetting about some huge project, but there was none to be found.
I don't know what to do with myself. Having two (2) nights off from homework is practically unheard of! What do you guys think? Either work on thank you notes, or take a bath and read a mystery novel, or do some housework, or... I don't know what else. I already checked my email, so that's off the list of possibilities.
I have also realized something else in the past several days:
I am not blogger-profound. Now, you might say I am not profound in a more general sense, but that doesn't seem to affect me so much as this blogger-specific statement. My husband is certainly profound, as well as Amy, Andrew, and even sometimes AJ, but not me. I think maybe I have a hard time because I never say enough witty or intelligent things in a row to make typing them in worthwhile. My wonders reveal themselves in much shorter bursts.
Because of the aforementioned realization, I have simply decided to stop wasting your time and mine. I know reading this blog is like watching paint dry, so I have decided to stop posting regularly. If there is some really pressing news or something, I may put it up, but probably don't bother checking. Don't harp on me for being a hobo-blogger, since it is perfectly intentional, and I sincerely hope you take the time that would otherwise be spent wading through the flotsam of my words to do something worthwhile, like praying or organic chemistry.
That is all.

17 November 2004He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
‘til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt of life, no fear of death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
‘til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand"
-The Newsboys
Amen, Lord Jesus.

13 November 2004"If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God under foot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know him who said, "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," and again, "The Lord will judge his people." It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God."
Hebrews 11:26-31
I know that I have certainly sinned since I received the knowledge of truth... What about you guys? What do you make of this passage?

11 November 2004we played "let's be", "machines", "what are you doing?", and "directed story".
During "let's be, a game where a kid says "let's be ___!" (cow or lawyer or whatnot) and we say "yes. ;lets!" and act it out, we got 17 small crawling animals. Dang, do my knees hurt. We also got "Harry potter", and since I was the only one onstage who's actually read the books and thus knew what kinda stuff he does, I got the loudest cheer :)
"what are you doing?" is a fun and easy elimination game. Two people start on center stage. The first player answers something that has nothing to do with what he's actually doing. E.g. if player 1 is cutting someone's hair, when asked what he's doing he might say "I'm reading the newspaper". Player two must then "read the newspaper, and when player 1 asks him what he's doing, he says something like "washing the dog". It's tight. I got cheers for that one when Kevin (our teacher) upped the ante and we had to say what we were doing using only the letters provided. The letters were "ac" and I beat two people, one with "almost crying" and one with "anti-creating".
Basically, those were my two most shining moments in improv.
The show on Tuesday was significantly less fabulous. I think we used all our energy on Saturday, and this audience (being college-aged and thus less excited about improv than kids) was not as enthusiastic as they could have been.
Why does physics suck so bad?
I'm getting excited to go down for thanksgiving. I miss y'all down there.

06 November 2004Tuesday, I drove a 15 passenger van to Pullman and back. The drive back was pitch-black except for the reflection of my headlights on the torrential downpour. Sick. The good news is that I got to put my hand in a rumen (again)! actually, I got to give dr. mike a high five from where my hand was in the rumen through where his hand was in the colon. yay, science nerds! I also got to look at this museum of freeze dried and otherwise preserved animal parts, cross-sections, etc. Which is so tight!
Wednesday, I did the normal daily grind, except I also lost my cell phone and searched all over campus twice to find it, only to find it under a heater in the biology department, about 4.3 feet from where I started my search. Blast.
Thursday, I realized that for the first time in about a billion years, whitworth is not offering any oral com classes during Jan term! What?!?!?!? Which means that I might not graduate in may. !! So much of the day, night, etc was taken up with trying to figure that out.
Friday, daily grind plus physics homework plus dr. mike having a breakdown in class. For some reason, I hold my professors up as rational, logical, wise, discerning, and unemotional people. They have the answers when I don't it always seems so much more disturbing when one of them becomes upset. It was tough.
So now I am tired.
tomorrow I have my first ever improv performance in front of an audience other than our class (this audience happens to be 500 screaming kids), then a castration in Loon Lake if I can swing it.
