Random thoughts
This is a list of random thoughts I had throughout the day.
- I am thankful I have a job. not the most glamourous job, but a job nonetheless. Sometimes I feel like I am paid more than I deserve; I mean, it doesn't hurt that my dad is partially responsible for deciding how much I get paid, so someone has my back, but really, sometimes I wonder how much I'm really worth. just a thought. Sometimes I also wonder if I'll ever get to a point where I'll have to humble myself and take a job that's "below me" if you know what I mean. My family hasn't always been well off, and in the past my dad has had to do whatever he could to provide, and for that I am thankful too. I know I'm probably not as big of a person to swallow my pride and do something of that caliber. Sometimes I wish I didn't care so much what people think of me.
- I started listening to Christmas music yesterday. I like it! I especially like the barenaked ladies/sarah maclachlan (sp?) duet of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen." Lonestar's "What Child is This" (if that's the name? I can't even remember) came on and I felt tears coming when they belted "THIS ,THIS IS CHRIST THE KING!" For someone who's been missing intimacy with Christ lately, that hit me hard.
- I like singing alone in my car, especially to Kelly Clarkson. she rocks. Whenever I feel a little ambitious, I sing the duet "The Prayer" with Charlotte Church and Josh Groban... yeah, definitely don't try to sing it the same way with other people as I do when I'm by myself!
- I'm reading John Ortberg's (one of my favorite authors) Everybody's Normal Till You Get to Know Them. How true! It's about community and building relationships...one of my favorite quotes: "Sometimes in church circles when people feel lonely, we will tell them not to expect too much from human relationships, that there is inside every human being a God-shaped void that no other person can fill. That is true. But apparently, according to the writer of Genesis, God creates inside this man a kind of "human-shaped void" that God himself will not fill."
- I need a haircut. This is the longest my hair has been in a while and it feels like it's getting oUtof cOnTRoL.
- I really need to start going to bed earlier.
- I really need to start exercising again. ugh.
- I enjoy Fridays. Lots of times I keep Friday nights to myself... and what do cool people do Friday nights? clean!
- I just finished watching tonight's Apprentice. This guy who was just fired is delusional! He speaks in circles, can't get a full sentence out... it's like he picks random words, says them all together, and thinks it's an intelligent sentence. He also begins almost every sentence with "you know" and stutters and repeats that phrase about 5 times. Spit it out! I don't know!
- They're treating a baby chimp on ER!! how cute! they're also playing that song "put the lime in the coconut..."
- This is great. Look at it and like it.
Ok that's all for tonight. peace!
