The hills & valleys of waiting.

I love metaphors.

They are such fun little packages waiting to be unpacked. And they have this beautiful ability to help explain the unexplainable. What’s not to love about them?

One of my favorite metaphors for life with God is the image of our life as full of hills & valleys. It is so clear and easy to understand.

We all make mistakes :(

Wow, tonight is a night of epic fails. Well maybe "epic" is not the most appropriate word, but jeeze I sure made a lot of mistakes this week!

Mistake #1: I didn't watch SYTYCD! I know, what's wrong with me?!? I'll blame the Olympics for throwing off my T.V. viewing schedule. That and I was at a friend's house until 1:00am on Wednesday. woops. Normally I'd cram it in Thursday morning. Yeah forgot about that too. New plan is to watch it tomorrow and post asap.

Mistake #2: I'm realizing that my blog has been heavily devoted to SYTYCD reviews. Maybe some of you don't mind. But I'm all about diversity and I do have a lot of passions outside of sitting on my butt and watching T.V. (It always makes feel worse when the subject of my T.V. viewing is something super active. So, SYTYCD + Olympics haven't been helping the guilt factor much :/ ) I've had 3 or 4 other posts planned. And I've failed to finish them.

My Next Book Shall Be Called:

Unraveling of a Substitute's Mind 

or

How To Piss Off the Substitute Teacher in 5 Easy Steps

The list of asinine things a student will do when they have a substitute teacher is endless. It never ceases to amaze me what they try to get away with or how they think they can treat me.

I could write a book.
