School is kicking my butt; same goes for this ridiculous weather. 90 degrees and humid is not my idea of beautiful weather. Thankfully I've only got one week left of classes, and two weeks left here in Pittsburgh before I can go back to Waterville and sit in the air conditioning with my pets for a week.

But why, oh why, did I choose to go to a year-round school? Why why why why? Okay, so, I know why - and it's a good reason - I'll graduate in 2007, before I turn 21, with my Bachelors. But...but...but...everybody else gets a several month long summer break and I'm stuck with three weeks. Oh well though, it is my longest break of the year (tied with Christmas), so I'm pleased with that.

I'm pleased with...your face.

I've been listening to Brave Saint Saturn's The Light of Things Hoped For today -- quite possibly the best Christian lyrics I've heard. For my Christian friends, or those that are interested, I post

Did you hear the news today?
I'm not coming home,
No
And I wished it all away
I felt so alone
And the darkness crept its way
Like stars we know will die too soon
There is never any sunrise here in the shadows of eclipsing moons
Crawling on a tightrope
The bravest thing I have is hope

daylight, save me
daylight, save me
tonight, tonight

Halogen, the lights will flicker
Incadescent burning lies
And the silence stands for nothing
Desperate, I search the skies, aching for a spark
Trembling in pitchest dark

Mission Control:
U.S.S. Gloria, this is mission control, do you copy?
We have lost contact with the U.S.S. Gloria

U.S.S. Gloria:
Mission Control, this is the U.S.S. Gloria, do you read me?
Mayday! We have lost primary guidance functions.

News Reporter:
The crew is now out of radio contact.
Presently there is no way for us to know whether they
Are alive or dead.
Our hopes and prayers go out with you all.

Mission Control:
U.S.S. Gloria, this is mission control, do you copy?

U.S.S. Gloria:
Houston this is the U.S.S. Gloria.
Good to hear your voice.
We are coming out of the eclipse now.
I see the sunlight. It's beautiful.
The sunlight is beautiful!

Jesus Christ, Light of the World
You never did forget me
And when I bled in darkness
You held me
Still held me
When desparate nights I cursed You
You loved me, still loved me
Jesus Christ, You dry the tears
You break my heart of stone
Your words are life
Cut marrow through
The darkness, to the bone
A heart of flesh You gave me
Only You can save me

Savior
Daylight
I am coming home

Well, okay...it's time to give Billy Blanks, then the shower, then the fan, a little visit. Keep cool, my babies!
