Ah, today is another clear, sunny, drought-increasing, beautiful day. Why, on the sails of beauty, come curses?
I got much sleep yesterday and last night, and my brain is out of the styrofoam mode, and back to "normal" mode (somewhere between marshmellow cream and mustard). Sleep is such a cool thing. The world disappears, and we either dwell in non consciousness or in a self?-manufactured "reality" that tastes, sounds, and appears real. The juxtaposition of image-things from 30 years ago and yesterday's hassles, and tomorrows worrys is so bizarre. Sleep is a time to somehow recoup energy spent that day.
So why is sleep pictued as bad in the bible? Why are we to "wake up, sleeper" and "not be asleep." What is it that sleep, beautiful sleep, portrays for the believer that is awful and ugly?
Speaking of sleep, I think I'll go back to bed. hehe. not really, I think I'll go wait in line at the DMV to register a truck. Woo hoo!!!
Oh, and before I go, Supertramp has something to say to us all, who see the evil out there . . .
Crime of the Century
Now they’re planning the crime of the century
Well what will it be?
Read all about their schemes and adventuring
It’s well worth a fee
So roll up and see
And they rape the universe
How they’ve gone from bad to worse
Who are these men of lust, greed, and glory?
Rip off the masks and let see.
But that’s not right - oh no, what’s the story?
There’s you and there’s me

I find sleep to be a rather interesting thing. I think it's fun to write down my dreams when I can remember them clearly enough. I even have a few blogged on Xanga if you read back a bit
RYC: "Living within my means is hard when my means aren't enough to pay for my living." i don't know what bills and debts you have, it's not much of my business, its not my business to know how you got them either. I do know how much you make yearly and know that it is more than both my parents have ever made (combined). I'd suggest that you change the way you live (which i guess you're doing but heck if i know that either).
About my personal money issues. I work at the church for free and until i decide that i want to be paid for it i don't want to be; i don't know if this will be a mistake leading to more debt or not i can only hope that it isn't.
as for sleep, sleep is a sign of laziness, i'd have to look up the passages though to see more clearly, the one in eph. you quoted speaks of spiritual sleep though, waking up and letting christ shine on us.
on another note, i'm not going to read your site until you fix the font which is incredibly difficult to read.
I'll still read your site even if you don't change the font... but I agree with Dave... the font choice is not the best.
one of the other keys to a good xanga is not only readable font but also new posts...most people think it should be daily, some...like your daughter have gone for months.
