Things I've been meaning to blog about...


  1. I'm in the process of joining my church. This might not seem like a big deal to most of you, but this will be the first church I have officially been a member of since my childhood church. Every few years, they have sent me a letter asking me if I want to remain a member, and I have always said yes, because I didn't feel like I ever "belonged" anywhere else as much. I could probably say a lot more on the subject, but I've been realizing lately how important it is to be committed to my church, even if I might not have any idea what the future might bring. So I gave my testimony to the board on Wednesday, and will soon be an official member of my new, little, beloved church.

  2. I'm playing board games tonight at my Starbucks. There is also live music tonight at my Starbucks. If anyone happens to be in the area, please feel free to swing by around 8 p.m. (it's the Starbucks at the corner of Fitzwatertown and Easton roads in Willow Grove, about a mile from the Turnpike exit).

  3. I had to work on Hallowe'en this year, so I didn't really bother coming up with a costume. Then, when I got to work, my manager told me that I was allowed to dress up, as long as I didn't cover my face and followed the safety codes. So I went home on my dinner break, put on a long, black, velvet dress, painted my face white and my eyes black, donned a cross, and went back to work. Such a waste, though, because I think maybe three more customers came in all night, and even after calling everyone I could think of, I couldn't seem to convince anyone that they should go to Dracula's Ball with me after I got off work at 10:30. And I never even took a picture, so you'll just have to imagine me goth.

  4. Last night, I stood up under a overhanging counter and nearly knocked myself out. Really. I hit my head so hard that I fell down. There's a huge goose egg there, now, and it hurts hurts hurts! I am such a dumb.

  5. Okay, so I haven't really been talking about Lost, which some of you may be missing (and some of you may be grateful for). I am a little sad about Eko, but everytime someone dies, I must admit, a part of me just heaves a sigh of relief that it wasn't Charlie or Hurley. I'm still very curious about the evil black magic cloud thingy. Do you think it's part of the Others? I'm starting to think it's a completely separate, distinct weirdness on the island. Or, perhaps something that the Dharma initiative was playing with and lost control of, like the polar bear experiments. And what about Juliet's little secret message? Do you think it's all for real? I'm torn. It would fit the brainwashing/con model really well if it was a trick... Ben just came clean about their plans, which buys them some trust from Jack, and now Juliet is forging a secret bond with Jack, which he won't suspect is part of the plan, because it seems too foolish for Ben to continue with that plan after confessing it. So it could all still be part of the same ruse. And, I know I'm a few weeks behind on this one, but I, for one, am glad Sun shot that chick. Score one for the good guys, and not getting walked all over just because they happen to be good. They were trying to steal her boat. Protection of property and all that. More power to her, I say. Oh, and one final thing, in all caps, 'cause it just has to be. I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE IS ONLY ONE MORE EPISODE AND THEN NOTHING UNTIL FEBRUARY!!!! PURE EVIL, I TELL YOU! Hmmm... Maybe the whole television series is an elaborate Dharma initiative experiment on the entire television-watching population of the world. That explains the EVILNESS in any case.

  6. I find it ironically ridiculous that the Blogger spell checker does not recognize the words blog, blogging, or blogger.

I’m very interested to know how you came to the church you’re at – it’s messianic jewish, correct? Was this the church (denomination) you were raised in? it is jeremy’s background? Or did you somehow find yourselves there?

I'm almost 100% sure the cloud is made of nanobots.

Juliet's confiding in Jack is just another method of confusing/controlling him. Fortunately, he seems to be the smartest of the three kidnappees, so i think he'll be aware of that. Either way he will try to save Ben's life, because that's who he his. He always needs something to fix.

I can understand where you're coming with on joining your church, because I'm in the process of doing the same thing, except that I need to wait for the next quarter of Sunday school for the discipleship class. Sometimes its alittle sobering to realize that yes, I am an adult, and yes I don't believe the same things as my parents and yes, I can choose my own church now.

I guess I'm alittle two trusting of Juliet then...I thought she was honest...I was more paranoid that someone was watching what she was doing as well as listening, and that her clever little video didn't work after all. And really, if they supposedly know so much about Jack, why go to all the trouble to capture them in the first place? If they'd asked weeks ago, we prolly would've done the surgery without all the phyical and emotional manipulation.

I don't trust Juliet and I don't think Jack does either. He knows there is a camera and he probably assumes that it works. On the other hand, though, it does seem like Juliet is sick of Ben, like there is some sort of power struggle going on there even when the Losties are not around.

Apparently, the next episode is supposed to resolve a lot of the stuff that's gone on in the first five, like a mini-season...I'm excited to see what it is.

Did your husband attend church with you? In all your adventures and trips he never seems to be with you? Is he ill? I always feel sad for you after reading your entries. This Blog of yours seems to be therapy for you. Sharing all your thoughts with us strangers. I hope it helps you but I get a sense of lonliness coming from your writing.
