The Day After Christmas

Don't go see "The Producers", either. It's just bad. I hadn't seen RENT and didn't realize it was being pulled from theaters on 22 DEC, so I went with Lee & Helen to see "The Producers". Ack. I don't even think it would have been that great in the theater. Or in the theatre, for that matter.

When did I become a movie critic?

I am loving my schedule for the next two weeks, and it consists of nothing, nothing, and more of the same. I've spent several hours today at Jittery's 5 Points just responding to or dealing with over 65 emails in my inbox. I had let them collect as exams and papers took over my time. I think the Jittery's staff will finally learn my name. One of my friends, Chris S., just got a job with Jittery's coporate office. Check out his blog.

Now that Christmas is over, I can get some other things done, like the following:

1. Rent some movies that I missed in the theater, like RENT. Is it even out, yet?

2. Make new 2006 file folders for my file cabinet and pull the 2005 folders to put in storage. I really like doing this, so don't laugh.

3. Read books, as many as I can until I have to read for assignments. As soon as I am assigned a reading, I have to fight to read it, even if it's something that really interests me. Probably just latent, teenage rebelliousness. Or just latent teenage rebelliousness. (Punctuation matters, dammit!)

4. Finish writing thank you notes for my Christmas gifts. God really provided some needs this year, like new boots.

I'm currently reading God Is The Gospel: Meditations on God's Love as the Gift of Himself by John Piper. As usual, Piper teaches and reminds me of God being the only thing, the everything. Even the gospel is really all about Him. And that is a truth that has a compelling beauty.
