- It needs a big wide sounding name like 'Ow', 'Ownge', 'Round', 'Ground'! Thats it! Ground! Ha! I wonder if it'll be friends with me? Hello Ground! - Wednesday, June 07, 2006

For you poor, unenlightened fools who have not seen The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, that is a classic line from the film. It was suggested to me by a friend (okay, a couple of friends), and I rented it, finally, and I found it absolutely hilarious! It's the perfect mix of stupid humor, dry wit, and British comedy; I was laughing within the first 2 minutes when dolphins were singing, "So long, and thanks for all the fish!"

Well, I'm gearing up for a few big things this month. First of all, I'm going to visit a friend of mine this weekend--I haven't seen her since college, and we're both really excited about it. It's kind of a big thing for me, because this will be my first time to go through Houston by myself (I know, some of you probably find me a wimp, but when you've got a controlling grandmother who has to drive practically EVERYWHERE, you don't get many chances). And speaking of my grandmother, she's freaking out some about the whole thing, but hopefully I can make it up there and back safely, and she won't freak out as much!

Then, in a couple of weeks, my church will be having their Vacation Bible School; I've always been a member of the praise team, teaching the kids the moves to the different songs (yes, Nic, fat girls can move!), and one year I was a helper in a classroom at another church's VBS. This year, I'll be helping out in the Missions area. I have no idea what I'll be doing, but it should be a lot of fun.

In the past couple of weeks, I've realized that I haven't been as faithful in daily Scripture study and prayer. So I'm trying to do that, and it's been really rewarding. A woman from my Sunday School class and I are also reading and responding to Joshua Harris's I Kissed Dating Goodbye, which has been really good and eye-opening, even though it is geared a little more towards those younger than myself. The good thing is that I have found that some of the principles of godly dating I have already committed myself to do.

Well, not much else is going on, besides reading fan-subbed Naruto manga and getting back into playing Fable: The Lost Chapters. Nothing else, really. I'm gonna get gone--good night to the very few who read this little hole-in-the-wall in cyberspace.

You really need to read the original Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy books. They have the whole collection at the LJ library, right at the top left of the science fiction section.

Mmm.... Fable.

The answer to life's biggest question--42.

Song Lyric of the Moment

Wherever we go, the dumb get wise / And the crime rates drop / And the markets rise / It’s a curious thing / But it’s just our thing // Bullies make nice, crooks repent / And the ozone layer shows improvement / It’s a curious thing / And it’s humbling /
~~"Wherever We Go" by the Newsboys
