This morning when I woke up I realized I was annoyed with our associate pastor at church. Because he seems to have this doofy grin whenever he has bad news. Like when the tornado hit a few months ago. Or when he's talking about his voyage to Europe (The festering cesspool of sin) and decides to show that doofy grin when he's talking about the Holocaust. How very insensitive.
I realize that was a terrible way to start an lj entry. So I'll start this paragraph with a better one. Oops. Too late. Next paragraph then.
I went to a bunch of open houses today, and enjoyed them all quite thoroughly. I met Jim S. And I kept calling him Jim S. Even though he was the only Jim there. One of the highlights of the day was looking at Ryan's awesome grade-school writing projects. Did you know that it's possibly to end or begin a paragraph with a sentence? I did.
Josh and Betsy and I finished filming our Beowulf movie. I got to pretend to be beaten to death twice. Well, three times actually. Even though Socks shouldn't take more than one take to do.
I presented my french project. Although some people didn't really understand it, I was told that it was enjoyable and/or good. And I think Jarrett told me he was glad it was long enough that he didn't have to go. So I was rather pleased with that. "Si on ne croit pas en Dieu et Dieu existe, c'est assez mal" [Translation: If one doesn't believe in God and God exists, that's rather bad]. Following that, I drew a minus infinity on the board. Laughter ensued.
I've noticed I have a tendency to journal in reverse chronological order, or in no order at all.
Rachel S.'s awkwardness desensitization (I think that's the word I'm looking for) seems to be working. I didn't panic today (much) except at a couple of very awkward moments. And I think I out-awkwarded Jim S. Because apparently he hasn't been desensitized like I have. Hand on shoulder = Not awkward. Also apparently hugging is no longer awkward. But mostly just in my group of close friends. Because if someone I don't know tries to hug me, I'll assume it's an assault and act accordingly.
