This blog’s like the Legend of Zelda series

I mean, there’s just one link, followed by another, followed by another…

OK, bad joke. But obviously all actual content here is getting swallowed by occasional links and brief commentary. Why is that?

I’ll let my co-conspirators tell their own tale, if they like. In my own case, TIWIARN (This Is Where I Am Right Now):

  1. I’m teaching Wednesday night Revelation studies at church. Oh, and Men’s Sunday School. Oh, and I’m preaching next Sunday, and again two weeks after that.
  2. Our wonderful insurance company decided to cancel our homeowners insurance without a clear warning because we didn’t have a porch railing up. Tracey and I did the front porch last weekend, and the back porch will be done this week sometime, probably at the expense of sermon preparation time. It’s either that, or do it anyway later, and get new insurance.
  3. The fun of my physical condition progresses. However, to stave off unwanted advice about what to do about it, I’m not going to talk about that anymore here.
  4. I’m trying to memorize 1 Timothy. For some reason I can’t get past 1 Timothy 1:3-8. Why do you think that is?
  5. I have to get ready to upgrade this blog to Wordpress 2.3; all my plugins aren’t compatible yet, but I have hopes that soon they will be.
  6. I am behind on updating the sermon website (two weeks behind, at the moment).
  7. I am working on configuring my new computer, which I have had for over a month and still don’t do much with because I haven’t had time to customize it to death. In short: HP P4, erased Vista, installed Debian. There’s a shock, hm? The surprising thing is how very useful Linux is on the desktop right now.
  8. We (the family) are playing what I think is a very fun game that I will likely not talk about here. Maybe I’ll blog that someplace else if I get time to write that much.
  9. Extended family upheavals; more I cannot say right now.
  10. I’m trying to figure out how public transportation works in St. Louis, well enough to start using it regularly for work. That’s more difficult than it sounds; I live on the outskirts of the bus lines.
  11. I’m supposed to be kicking the tires of a new hosting solution for Triablogue. I haven’t done much on that, for reasons given above.

That’s my excuse. You’re lucky I can keep up with the links at the moment.

    I am sorry things are so crazy right now. I am praying for you guys.

    As far as your point #1…
    I am thankful that you are able to preach! I enjoy your sermons.

    Point #2…
    You know, if you had Country Insurance and Financial Services, none of that would have happened. ;) Sorry, had to get that in there.

    Also, if you and Tracey want help with your porch on Friday night or during the day on Saturday, I will gladly help. Just let me know.

    Point #10
    I bet that’s a big hassle! Have you talked to Lynnae? She goes to St. Louis everyday. She might be able to help with that.

    And on all the other points…
    I’m praying for you guys! :)

    Thanks.

    Likely not. Well, if they blow it this time, we’re jumping ship.

    Also, if you and Tracey want help with your porch on Friday night or during the day on Saturday, I will gladly help. Just let me know.

    Nice of you to offer, but there’s not much left. It’s the 80/20 thing, I think.

    Have you talked to Lynnae? She goes to St. Louis everyday. She might be able to help with that.

    I haven’t. I didn’t consider the possibility that she may have looked into this.

    Thanks for your prayers.
