Day’s Verse:

And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased.”

Luke 2:13 – 14

Things I did today:

I walked through a chilly mist of rain, struggling to keep my hood on in the wind.

I put a band-aid on my sliced finger.

I spent hours integrating incomprehensible equations.

I had a nice surprise.

I turned our IQP, protected by Price Chopper bags, in to the registrar.

I listened to a sad story of wooly knitting.

I took a very hot bath to warm icy toes.

I took a band-aid off my sliced finger.

I checked my empty mailbox twice.

I bought Christmas presents.

I put a band-aid back on my sliced finger.

It has not been a bad day, although much more math looms in my distant future and my finger hurts. I felt hopeless earlier this afternoon, but have found peace that I only hope will stay with me. Once I have studied my hardest, all I can do is show what I know. If that passes me, so be it; if not, it’s a Christmas break of integration for yours truly. But God is good, and dinner calls. Ah, leftovers, staple of finals week.

Very soon now. Very.

  1. How did you slice your finger?! Our tree is up and I am decorating almost as I type this. I’m saving out Ian’s box of ornaments for you two to put up, if you like. 🙂

  3. I think you’re an amazing photographer. Screw math take pictures. Unless, you’re like me and enjoy the pain of math. Then, do both.

  5. Whoa, where did you get our address? And thank you for the compliment!

    I think the reason I’m doing math is to prove I can. Any old person can point a camera and press a button; it takes stamina and insanity to stick with the math.

  7. The story is:
    My friend Lesley decided to make a nice scarf for her mother, who loves the color fuscia. So she bought white and fuscia yarn and started knitting. She thought it was all nylon yarn, which is good because her mother’s sensitive to wool; but then, halfway through, she found that the fuscia stuff contains some amount of wool and would therefore be most unpleasant for her mom to wear. But she’s put in half the work, and she can’t think of anybody else who’d want a white-and-fuscia striped scarf.
