Today, well, today was interesting.  Got back from Rocky Horror really early this morning, then I had to go to church for my Luke/Acts class.  The requirement was to sit through a service of a different denomination and culture than I am.  Well, I don't go to church so I have no denomination, and culturally, I like to blend.  So...Japanese service it was.  Interesting.  Go again? Maybe, but definitely not religiously.  Pun not intended.

Yesterday my friend Marius  finally got into contact with me after several months (3).  Good times, we sent messages back and forth on Facebook for about an hour or two yesterday before I left for the show and then we sent a few more today, including posts in comments on the blog.  So that was fun too.  Last night/this morning I spent an hour or so in what I like to call the 'library'.  It's not an actual library, but a collection of emails/chats/discussions of many many things that Marius and I were a part of.  It's all compiled from our collective email accounts and stored in one that we both have the password to, so I've seen about half of it, but for the sake of sanity and privacy I've deleted about 98% of what I contributed to the library from my own emails, and only in the last 7 months or so have been privy to what Marius added.  Anyways, last night I needed to get back into some memories so I was scrolling through the library for an hour or two.  I got what I needed from it, and then some.  Maybe someday I'll go through, organize it, and compile it into a timeline.  I'd definitely like to download it all at some point, just to have a hard copy that I can piece together.

The title of the post tonight actually makes PERFECT sense if you've been in my presence long enough for me to say it.  Type those numbers into an old-fashioned calculator, and flip it upside-down; it's a word.  If you still can't figure out what word...well, your sanity is completely intact.

So as you can see, the next two weeks are PACKED.  So if I don't make it onto the blog that often, I think you can forgive me.

Tonight I had another idea for a theme of a collection I've been adding to on Facebook (see the picture).  The series is entitles "In My Mind" and I think that's pretty self-explanatory.  The pictures portray what goes on my mind when I have time to myself...which is pretty often.  In this case, this is one of those times where I have an idea which I SWEAR was a good idea to begin with, and then it always ends up failing.

Challenge Q: Describe something you've done for fun. Not a hobby of yours, but something that you just decided to do.  If you did it and it ended up becoming your hobby, that's fine.  It doesn't have to be epic, or your favourite, or even the best thing; just what you think of.

-Mine: in high school, myself, one of my friends, and the eldest of his younger sisters had a running list of words you could spell on calculators (entering numbers and flipping it to read it).  The paper had five columns, and there were two sheets of paper when we finally stopped.  We clarified whether words were real or not (zoos[my version of Zeus] vs. EloiEloi[it's a real word...in Hebrew *_^]), and we put initials next to who got credit for inventing the words.  I had more than 50% (53% I think), my friend had just under 50% and his sister had 2% of the words.  I did the math ^_^

*Please keep your description around the length of mine (paragraph or two).  I know this post is like three pages, but please, PLEASE, do as I say, not as I do (Marius, this is mostly directed at you).

Cheers,
