  • Thanks for your comments on the last post. It is a heavy
    topic to me, and I’m glad to have gotten some feedback from you all on the
    subject. I’m going to start reading Erwin McManus’ book Unstoppable Force
    again. I’ve read part of it before and I really enjoyed it.

    My classes are great this quarter. I remember signing a plan
    for my grad program when I first got to the school and I was being advised by a
    woman is now currently my professor. There were a few options in the list of my
    major’s elective courses, and she automatically checked the box for Commercial
    Songwriting telling me that I would love the course. I told her that I’m really
    not a songwriter and I don’t think I’d enjoy it or do well…she signed me up for
    it anyways—well, I LOVE the course. It has already stretched me in ways I need
    to be stretched, and it’s not going to be as difficult as I’ve always thought
    it was in my head because we’re actually learning a process, and I’ve already
    had some good brainstorms. I am coming home from both nights of school really
    pumped. I usually call Christy on the way home and tell her about it. It’s
    great. 

    30 Rock was a good show. It didn’t blow me away, but Tina
    Fey is a pretty smart writer. I liked the movie Mean Girls, and of course SNL,
    so I’m looking forward to what is in store for the future of 30 Rock—and the
    critics were raving about it, so it might stick around.

    Mike told me I really needed to watch Heroes because it was
    his new favorite show, or at least favorite new show. We had watched the pilot
    and half of the 2nd episode but Christy wanted to turn it off
    because it was a little too graphic for her taste, and I wasn’t really into it,
    so we did—but Mike called me just raving about it, so I downloaded the 3rd
    episode and watched it on my iPod while I worked out. It was awesome! Not only
    was the show pretty cool, I loved watching it while on the elliptical machine.
    The time passed quickly and I got a good 40 mins of aerobic exercise AND had
    fun! It was novel…

    9 days until we move.

  • I know... if watching TV can't keep my butt on an elliptical, then Lord help us all...

    Fa la, fa la, why is it that the highlight of my day is thinking about going to the 'bucks after rehearsal?

    You'll have to share some of the good stuff from that book with us here in Xanga land.

  • I am actually liking Heroes,too.  It fits in with Xmen and 4400.  What did you think of Battlestar?  I don't remember you posting about it.  Tom loved it, of course.  I was enjoying bits. 

  • I loved "An Unstoppable Force". Good book.

  • I am proud of your workout...now do you think you could workout for me too.  We put our plan on hold for 2 months....just cause we haven't been going!

  • That book sounds good.  I'm gonna have to check it out.  :o )  Hope your move goes well.
