For Katie and Lisa . . .

This afternoon over smoldering smores at Cosi, some friends voiced their concern of my sporadic postings, claiming that the frequency of my writing has slowly declined in the past weeks. I would like to suggest that maybe . . . just maybe this could be attributed to the oppression of the system of higher education upon defenseless graduate students during finals week . . . or perhaps I was just lazy!

At any rate, this posting is dedicated to you Katie and Lisa, for all the times I abandoned you, left you hanging on the development of my life, for all the times I chose my theology text books over you. My New Year’s resolution is to cater to the appetite that the era of reality television has imposed upon you! Okay, just kidding! Honestly, I have to say, I never realized so many people actually read my blog! After all my life is nothing special, just the everyday escapades of a 23 year old, constantly on the look out for what’s next and insistently happening upon it when I cease looking!

I have to switch subjects to share with you all that I am currently watching VH1’s “I Love the 90’s.” It totally reminds me of our attempt at the “Back in the Day” dance we held at the Newman Center when we were convinced that a dance that commemorated our childhood in which we wanted to “remember when . . . the 90’s,” would be a HUGE hit. Okay, maybe it wasn’t “huge” but hey, it gave us an excuse to do the running man and not be ridiculed for it, right?

Okay, it’s getting late and I want to get this posting up before midnight since I promised you two that I would post today! Plus, as I posted before, the “oppression” of the system of higher education already began imposing upon me for next semester and I have a bit of reading and reflecting to get to!

Signing off, grateful for my friends! And in remembrance of our college days, “Peace out, Rainbow trout!”
