i’m leading

i just thought i would let all of you know that after the first weekend of the ncaa tourney i am kicking everyone’s butts. of course,, by bragging like this i have asurded myself that i wll now lose, but it’s a small price to pay to be able to briefly saying i am winning.

according to my parents (about the only two people who read this blog) i am not posting enough (ironically they are not posting at all but i’m not supposed to discuss that). so i guess i am going to start posting more.

the tourny

is anyone interested in doing a basketball bracket for the ncaa basketball tournament? i’ll take the winner out for lunch at any restaurant that he/she wants to eat at that costs less than $20 for entrees. if you live outside of baton rouge and want to participate i’ll send you a gift card to the restaurant you desire. i always do one through cbs sportsline and therefore you would have to have a free account there to do a bracket.

the bracket would be located here if we do it.
any takers?

lent

yes i know it’s been awhile since i posted and i can’t promise that i will begin posting regularly (but i do hope to) but still i’m posting right now and that counts for something. here are the few things that i wanted to post:

  • if you are interested in running in the march 10th “race for the cure” 5k let me know by friday and it might be free for you. we have a church member that wants to sponsor a group of people. it’s $25 to register but free if you hurry. i most know by friday.
  • many of you know that we are using si smith’s “40” during lent. it’s quite cool stuff. who would have thought that cartoon drawings could be so devotional?
  • the famine was great this past weekend and i am very thankful for everyone that made it happen. all of the involved churches are meeting this coming week to discuss beginning to do more things together. it seemed like everyone connected very well and therefore we want to continue encouraging that.

i guess that’s about it for now. i’ll try to start posting regularly again. pam’s gone to iowa on ph.d stuff and i’m bored and missing her.

it’s on

luke t. and i will be running 13.1 miles tomorrow to see who can run it the fastest. if you want to come watch we will start at the baton rouge beach at 9 a.m. we’ll be running this course twice.

the whole thing should be fun.

once i was proud

i learned this from grant. apparently my alma mater decided that a woman could not teach hebrew to men. at one time i was proud to have gone to southwestern (yes it was a long time ago when i was actually proud but still i actually proud at one time). now i’m usually embarrassed to admit that i graduated from a school that now has paige patterson as it’s president. i can’t honestly recommend for others to go there.

i accept the challenge (said in a kung fu accent)

after the view tonight luke t. challenged me to a run because he is convinced that he can run a marathon now – who knows he might could. anyhow the end of our conversation was that we are now racing each other around the baton rouge lakes twice. this should be taking place saturday morning if you want to come and watch.
