(no subject)
I know that I don't update enough. I might say that I will do a better job, but it's really not true.
I got really frustrated at church today. Not about anything that was said theologically. But I am just really tired of people there telling me, "You're so skinny!" "You don't need to lose any more weight." "I remember when you were a plump little boy." "If you lose any more weight, a gust of wnd is liable to knock you over." I mean, I know that I've lost weight, but I really haven't lost any to speak of in the last year or so. And I've seen and talked to these people since then. At least 5 people said something to me today. If I'd been this size all my life, then they wouldn't say anything. It's annoying as hell.
So I bought Ben Killen's old Mac from him. It's so nice. Cute is a word I often use to describe it. It's got a lot of things on here that I haven't figured out how to use yet. Or what they do. I read the names, though, and get some idea. He sent me a copy of the latest Time Out New York Magazine (where he works) when he mailed me the computer. It was the annual sex issue, and I felt a little dirty looking at it at work (where I had him ship the computer). My Compaq computer was/is having some issues. I need to fix it/get it fixed; I think I'm selling it to My Friend Leslie.
I'm watching Nigella on the DVR. She's awesome, and her kids look so British. But it's just to tide me over until I start Brothers & Sisters.
I've been studying for this test for work. The Chartered Financial Analyst exam. I took the test in June and just barely didn't pass. So now I'm taking it again on December 1st. In Atlanta. Which means that I get to see Janice as an added bonus afterwards.
I just know that the next time I see Franklin he's going to tell me that a gust of wind is going to knock me over. He's like that.
