Peace Like A River


It was a wide river, mistakable for a lake or even an ocean unless you'd been wading and knew its current. Somehow I'd crossed it... Now I saw the stream regrouped below, flowing on through what might've been vineyards, pastures, orhards... It flowed between and alongside the rivers of people; from here it was no more than a silver wire winding toward the city. - Leif Enger, Peace Like A River

Beware the Ices of March

Well, right on schedule, a sizeable snowstorm is said to be headed our way. Of course, we're playing to head for Minot tomorrow. Not clear what exactly driving conditions will be like. Sounds like it might be nastyish till Alexandria or so, then maybe get better by Fargo. We'll have to see.

We'da left today in a heartbeat, but I have a deacons mtg tonight. Oh well.

Just been so busy lately, things are dragging on me, with all the schoolwork, deacons, etc...

I'd really like to get XM satellite radio. Sure wish it was already in the Tacoma. (I wish the Tacoma had the side air bags as well.)

I'm in a little March Madness office pool at work. Picking the 5-12 seed matchups is always fun, because there's usually one such upset every year. I went back and forth on the Alabama (5)-UWM (12) game, eventually picking Alabama. And of course, in keeping with my usual luck, UWM is currently ahead 69-57 with 4:28 to go. Sigh. I did pick another 12 to win, GW over Ga Tech, but since UWM will probably win, that will be the quota, and I'll get that other game wrong as well. Double sigh.
