One of the things I realized during orientation a few weeks ago is that I have peaked – and I am only 28 (this is very sad I am sure). Perhaps not peaked, but in some ways I do feel as though I’ve reached the top of my mountain and everything from here is downhill.

So Adam has threatened to delete my blog if I don’t write a post by the end of the day. He said that the first day of school required a post and he had the power to delete my sadly inactive blog if I didn’t write something; and clearly there’s nothing like a threat to [...]

We celebrated the end of classes last night at Columbia’s annual Christmas banquet. It was a good time.
The food, which students and their spouses cooked (not us after our cooking fiasco), was amazing.
It was fun to hang out with friends and relax. Jeff was a little reluctant to dance, but he got over it . [...]

In first grade I memorized many things. So many things, in fact, I can’t even remember them all – clearly it worked well. What I do remember memorizing is the Lord’s Prayer and Psalm 23. Both are prayers/psalms that just roll off the tongue and I don’t ever remembering reading them – as I found [...]

I’ve created two new websites for my school. And, while you might think that if you don’t go to my school this post isn’t for you, you are wrong.
One website is all about outreach opportunities in the area. And, while you might not be able to do these specific things, they might spark some [...]
