SNOW BUDDY

bullet points rock

• It's snowing (or at least it did last night). What a perfect way to start my December than to a blanket of white outside my window :)
• Tuesday night, the defending national champion North Carolina Tarheels lost to the Fighting Illini. Too bad both rosters were dramatically different from the title game. We could've made a case for taking the trophy to our house.
• Wednesday night, for iTeam, we went to The Catholic Worker House in Champaign on Randolph Street. It's amazing what they do. It's a non-denominational (despite the name) house of in house volunteers that houses homeless women and feeds 75+ homeless people each day.
• A friend of mine's dad has a death ray in his backyard. How friggin' cool is that. He's got a ton of mirrors focused on one point and he can ignite logs and melt metals. Very cool.
• God is showing me some cool things as of late through reading. The first being, that I really do enjoy reading, it can just be a struggle to get into. I'm reading my second book of the semester, The Screwtape Letters. CS Lewis does a great job of portraying the plans of Satan's minions.
• The best song EVER on a Tony Hawk skateboarding video game is "Superman" by Goldfinger. I'm listening to it's majesty as I type.
• We signed a lease for an apartment. I don't remember if I wrote that down before or not. But there is new news anyway, as we got it resigned when they messed up our initial lease. We got a discount rate and Justin in his infinite wisdom saved us $2.03 per month. That kid is pinching pennies like that. Most awesome.
