Well, I've been meaning to tweak the appearance of my blog... and so I have. Not sure if I am done yet. One is never done tweaking, methinks.
Wow. I am looking forward to this summer and getting back to what I love: spending time with friends, reading lots of good books (and probably some bad ones too), and writing on this ever-changing blog about all my crazy adventures and the things God is teaching me about who I am and how to navigate this bizarre, sad and busy world. [yes, I realize that was a terrible run-on sentence.]
This summer will be awesome. I just know it.
On to business: I've included a link to my summer reading list. It's my hope to practice my critical writing skills and share what I've learned/am learning reading these books... some of them less scholarly than others. Of course, I might add some new ones and I might toss some of the ones I've listed across the room if they annoy me too much. I am always accepting recommendations.
Also, check out the new Navigation bar on the top. I've included a link to the cool church women blog which is an open blog for women who love Jesus --if you attend Abundant Life Church that's even better (and probably should be required)-- to share stories of how God is working in their lives. If you are interested in being a guest writer, just let me know. I have big hopes for this blog to be a place for women to be voice of encouragement to other women. We'll see!
I also added a link to my pal @jasonbraaten's webcomic page. He is funny, smart and talented (and apparently an awesome BBQ'er but this has yet to be proven) so if you like be to amused you should support his new venture too. He updates the site every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and if you leave him comments (esp good ones) he will really like you. And don't we all like to be liked?
Well, I do.
And actually, I enjoy his commentary just as much as the comic- go figure when you have a former English teacher (he may be proofreading this blog right now... eeks) with a passion for politics and current events. Even if he didn't know who Spencer Pratt was... hmm. Because this is vital info for you to know... hmmm... no.
up next for me: finish reading the The Divorce Party. And then: sleep.
Conversation posting means you get no grammar corrections. Now, if by chance, you give me a paper you are going to submit to a teacher...that is a different story. Thanks for the plug Cori ;)
