My favorite word is "interstices". I love the way it feels on the tongue, and it's uncommon enough that it's always a surprise.

We get to go to the circus today! Unless I'm mistaken, this will be the first time I've ever been to one. I know it's my son's 1st.

Kim has a handbell festival today. We dropped her off downtown, and it's gonna be a boys' day. We're starting out at the park.

This afternoon was the handbell concert. What an amazing experience. 400 ringers all playing at once is incredibly humbling.

Had a small dinner party with a colleague and his family tonight. A lovely evening. We need to do this more often.

I'm beginning to wonder if I'm talking to myself. Do me a favor. If you are reading this right now, leave me a comment. Topic: fish

Just saw my first daffodil of the year. Spring is coming, ready or not.

Yesterday I recieved a shipment of Ubuntu Linux CDs. It's a free distro that can run from CD or be installed. I'm very impressed!

Today was great. Kim worked, but I didn't, so I hung out with my son all day. Saw Racing Stripes, and it was pretty good.

So, the billboard has a big pic of a Filet-o-fish sandwich and says, "I can almost hear the ocean." How dumb do they think we are?

I just finished watching Whale Rider. God, what a wonderful film!

Last night Ch. 8 had "Are the End Times Near?" on regular broadcast news! I was so mad I could spit.

Just watched Super Size Me. If you haven't seen it yet, do. Even if you don't, please reconsider eating fast food, for all our sake

Well, I don't know what exactly is going on here, but something is getting messed up between my cellphone and my blog. It's always been the case that an entry I e-mailed from my phone would appear in the blog within half an hour or so. The recent spate of posts are items that either never came through, or came through long after they were sent (in one case, they came out of order!)

I'll be watching more closely over the next few weeks to see if the problem clears up (and if any of my stray e-mails appear as duplicate posts). Sorry for the big dump.

[2/15/2005] I slept almost 11 hours last night and I still feel like an elephant sat on me. I'm definitely getting sick.

[2/13/2005] I just finished reading The Known World by Edward P. Jones, the book that all Tulsa's supposed to be reading. Extraordinary.

[2/11/2005] Went bowling tonight with some folks from church. Didn't score very well (92, 100, 88) but the company was great!

[2/11/2005] RIP Arthur Miller

[2/10/2005] This has been a crazy week. On top of my regular work, I've taken two classes, taught one, and hosted two other programs. Whew!
