Right now I’m at a coffee shop with my roommate Henry. (I won’t mention what coffee shop in
hopes to pressure them into giving me free drinks for a name drop. Leverage.) I had a lot of thoughts and ideas in a crazy windstorm of
inspiration.

First, I want to justify more of thoughts and decisions with
the statement: “to live is Christ and to die is gain. For example:
“Hey Jake I really like that t-shirt.”
“Thanks. To
live is Christ and to die is gain.”
I think it’d raise some pretty prominent and weighty
questions. “Wow. Jake is deep. Real deep.

We were asked if we wanted plates for our muffins, and I
said, “there is no better plate than my mouth.” And then I immediately realized how much this is true, and
how much that’s not a good thing.

I read an article headline that said, “Umenyiora scoffs at
Giants’ contract offers.” New item
on bucket list: scoff at a contract offer. (Bonus points if there is a headline made about it: “McLaughlin says ‘pfffft’ to millions”) Someday,

“Man, that sunset looks really spicy.” Or “The colors in that photograph are

Let’s be honest, I’m never going to write part III of the “Bill
the Baptist.” Spoiler alert, he
dies at the end.

I want to start conversations with more provoking icebreaker
questions:
“If you could get rid of one book of the Bible which one
would it be?”
“Which friend would you feel the least sad if they died?”
“What’s been the worst part of your day so far?”
“How much do you weigh? No really, how much?”

The one thing I miss about finals week: Not studying.
I'll answer the four questions.
ReplyDelete1: Ruth. I'm not a woman worried about guarding her heart, and I don't care.
2: Jesus. I actually rejoice at that fact.
3: I played no cribbage and smoked no pipe
4: I think I weigh like 195. I feel fatter. It's mostly body hair.
