Crazy for feeling so blue - I'm not feeling particularly blue at the moment, and whether or not I am actually crazy is a subject I'd rather not delve into at the moment - but life is crazy at the moment, and this blog is blue, so I guess it's a bunch of half-truths thrown together.
Two questions arise from the title:
Why is life crazy?
Well... I have a paper assigned on Sophocles, which I think I'll be able to work through better than my Homer paper--I've got to start writing that. I started my job a couple of days ago, and so far it hasn't been terribly strenuous, but it's just one more thing to think about. This Monday, I have a math exam to study for over the weekend (thankfully we have Friday off). My sisters and I have been roped into doing a special dance performance with about nine other dancers from our three branches; it's a 4-minute choreography for halftime at an OU Women's Basketball game. o_O (I joked about wearing an orange cape (our dresses are black), but I didn't do it in the end. Orange isn't my favorite color, and I'd rather not be stuck with that color of cape. =P) That means we're going down to OKC twice a week for rather intensive practices; this on top of the four hours of dance I have this Friday. I am completely loving the extra dance time, but again: it's tiring and one more thing to work on. I'm rather behind on my at-home work. At some point, I've got to start driving. I need to schedule an appointment with my advisor so I can enroll in classes for the spring (I don't even remember my advisor's name--but I don't think it matters...much). I've got Sunday School to prepare for each week; nothing so hard core as Logan's, but again--another thing to think about.
I'm pretty sure there's something I'm forgetting here.
Anyway, it's quite hard to get everything done and go through the day in the right mindset. I still haven't figured out how to meditate on God's Word day and night when algebra seems a much more pressing issue.... and the fact that I find algebra more urgent than time with my maker is extremely distressing.
Why is the blog blue?
I ... don't know. It's dark and neutral and the other colors stand out fairly well against it. If that wasn't deep or philosophical enough for you, you shouldn't ask such silly questions.
Cheers.
I'll be praying for you, friend. It's a lot of things to keep going at once, that's for sure! But at least they're good things. What are you reading of Sophocles's?
your comment box said "1 notes" so I thought I'd make it two and that way the grammar would be correct. ;)
ah, dear--I feel exactly the same way about English papers. How could something so mundane as a paper take priority over God's Word? It's difficult.
If things work out it looks like I'll be having Thanksgiving with Rick and Robin. You'll have to tell me how ours goes...
