Focus: a State of the Eyk Address.

Michal Wallace’s recent post really took a two-by-four to my noggin. I’ve been worrying about a bunch of seemingly disconnected things, and when I read his analysis of his own problem, I saw the beginnings of a synthesis for all my scattered thoughts. Here follows my attempt at bringing them all into one place and introducing them to each [...]

Christianity and Science.

(But having nothing to do with Christian Science…)

Brief Introduction

So, I’ve been trying, and unsuccessfully at that, to stay out of the Evolution vs. ID vs. Christianity vs. your children debate that’s been flaming around lately. As I mentioned earlier, I’m rather tired of the debate, and I have my suspicions that the whole thing is just an extension [...]

Serenity, again.

In a recent post, I blathered on about Serenity and how wonderful it was. Well, I went and saw it again last night (my third viewing) with Mike, and it was just as good, if not better than ever before, and I think I saw Mike drying his eyes at the end. But [...]

My people.

A few years ago, I was introduced to the concept of “my people”–authors and thinkers whom I can really jam with (thanks, Eleanor!). At the time, I didn’t really know who my people were, but ever since, I’ve been building up a list. Currently, my list includes the following, in no particular order:

Serenity.

On Saturday, I went and saw Serenity. The audio cut out for about fifteen minutes during the first half, so we all got free movie passes at the end.

On Sunday, I went and saw Serenity again.

If I had $9.50 to spare, I would have gone and seen it again yesterday. Likewise, today. [...]

The sickness unto life.

I missed last Friday’s update because I was back home at a wedding, and I had neither time to write nor an internet connection. Being home was great. The wedding was spectacular–friends you’ve known since the first grade don’t often get married. (I’ll pause a moment to let you parse that one.) [Took me [...]

Riches and Glory.

Yesterday was Labor Day, and the afternoon full of friends and food and games. So full, in fact, that I didn’t get to some other errands until quite a bit later than I expected. The good news: I found some excellent Labor Day clearance sales on things I’d been needing for some time, [...]

Serendipity Year

Cross-posted from my super-duper giganto-email update:

Where to begin? Probably some of you haven’t heard from me since graduation. Here’s a quick list of my accomplishments:

Spent a summer at HoneyRock teaching Archery to campers. One summer turned into 15 months at HoneyRock, where I:

fixed computers ran sound for events laid a foundation for a new operations complex cleaned toilets de-boned [...]

Moving.

Moving weekend. Been packing all week. Today we went through and cleaned the house from attic to main level. Tomorrow I’ll take the first car-load of boxes to my new apartment.

I won’t be near email much, if you’re trying to contact me. Best bet is to call my cell phone, if [...]
