I sometimes really love drafting. and I really love working at Kohlers. I think this summer is going to be just lovely.
I was walking down some of the stairs outside on campus the other day and was reminded of how cold and wet winter was. I remember how slushy those stairs used to be, and how the bottoms of my pants were always wet. I used to love the winter, but at that moment, walking down those stairs, I never wanted to see another winter day again. I think I would love living in the desert.
I went out to lunch the other day with a senior couple that I had served with in Romania. And we talked and talked for almost 3 hours at Red Robin. And I missed Romania so very much. I was thinking of how much I loved the summers over there. They are so green, lush, humid, and hot... A lot of memories are very sweaty... my forehead was always perspiring, and my forearms would even sweat, but I loved the feeling. I'm not sure why, it sounds gross now. But man, I love the summer. I can't wait for this crappy Spring to be over. I hate the Spring.... more than I hate Winter.
This the hierarchy of seasons in my world:
Fall
Summer
Winter
Spring

google!
I just love those cute little google icons and how they change every so often. Today the google has these cute little aliens and space scene. Now I love space, so of course I was curious as to why they had this icon today.
I learned that Yuri Gagarin was the first man into space. His rocket launched on April 12th, 1961. How wonderful that I know that now. Thank you google!
the HP 100 day challenge!
I have just been informed about this and I have never been one to turn down a challenge...
It is a hundred days to the Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows... the challenge is to read all the Harry Potter books before then.
Some help:
You'll need to read 33.41 pages per day (using the pagination of American hardcover editions) in order to finish on time, if you start today. (Late starters are welcome!)
Here's a few other milestones:

more lyrics
now it’s all bad education
feeling fine, I’m feeling patient
girls and boys and full frustration
st. valentine, I think I taste it
tugging at the seatbelt
I’m jumping out the saddle
I’m shuffling my feet around
I’m kneeling at the steeple
when will my heart teeter, tatter?
I‘m a believer, I’m solid matter.
feeling fine, I’m feeling patient
girls and boys and full frustration
st. valentine, I think I taste it
tugging at the seatbelt
I’m jumping out the saddle
I’m shuffling my feet around
I’m kneeling at the steeple
when will my heart teeter, tatter?
I‘m a believer, I’m solid matter.
I like these lyrics.
when they found him,
dressed all in corduroy,
he had drowned in the river down the way
they laid his body down in a churchyard,
but still when the moon is out,
with his pushcart,
he calls down the day
dressed all in corduroy,
he had drowned in the river down the way
they laid his body down in a churchyard,
but still when the moon is out,
with his pushcart,
he calls down the day

time
I have read 3 books this week, and this afternoon started a 4th. You'd think that I have given up a lot of my time to accomplish all this reading... but surprisingly I still have been getting a lot of other things done as well. I wrote my brother a 3 paged letter, vacuumed out and washed my car, had the oil changed, moved a pile of cinder blocks from one end to the other in my backyard, worked out, hand lunch with my dad, went to work, went to class, and did homework.
See? Proof that we all can squeeze more time in for reading.
Actually I think this is just proof that I haven't utilized all the minutes in my day very well until now.
