Yesterday, I volunteered to organize toys for a Christmas community service project. Kids are so lucky these days, with all sorts of newfangled toys.


I won a stuffed penguin in a claw machine. Anyone want a stuffed penguin?


Tulsa's men basketball team is terrible. We got trounced by our crosstown rivals, ORU by more than twenty points. We didn't even break the fifty point barrier. Our current coach will not be coming back next season. He's a nice guy, but he can't develop players at the college level.


Tonight was the Christmas party at the BSU. I even took part in the tradition of the "Twelve Days of Christmas", where I had to say I was pregnant. And that I was wearing five golden rings because I didn't know whose child it was. You had to be there...but suffice to say I sufficiently humiliated myself for the good of the group.





You Are a Seeker Soul





You are on a quest for knowledge and life challenges.
You love to be curious and ask a ton of questions.
Since you know so much, you make for an interesting conversationalist.
Mentally alert, you can outwit almost anyone (and have fun doing it!).

Very introspective, you can be silently critical of others.
And your quiet nature makes it difficult for people to get to know you.
You see yourself as a philosopher, and you take everything philosophically.
Your main talent is expressing and communicating ideas.

Souls you are most compatible with: Hunter Soul and Visionary Soul






I've got a week and a half to do two twenty page papers and four finals. I'll be around, but you'll have to forgive a lack of content.

I am a penguin fanatic. You should see my sock collection, in particular. If we lived closer, I would absolutely take you up on that penguin offer!!!

Penguins are awesome. Glad you're able to help out with the toy drive this year. It's amazing what upper middle-class children have, and more amazing still how little the homeless children have.

It's so true. Working at these things makes me realize how lucky I was when I was a child. I had so many more toys than I needed growing up.
