Church was very nice today. During the service, I started thinking about the fact that we have so many nationalities and personalities all under one roof - the diversity is really cool (for those who like labels, we've got African Americans, Indians (from India of course), Argentinians, Germans (that still speak German), Arabs (like my mom), and WASPy types as well). Of course, there are a few divisions on ideology and political leanings, ones that I usually end up on the left of. =) Oh well, can't be helped really.

Some people at the church invited me and my parents to lunch, but I declined in order to get work done here at home. Well, after cooking myself lunch and cleaning the kitchen, I'm realizing that I could have accepted and been able to get to work at the same time (not that this is work...it's just that logging has become a pre-work habit, I guess to clear out distractions in my head). One thing I couldn't have done, however, is eat the food I'm supposed to be eating. I've been feeling really crappy in the health department, so I've started limiting my carbs and animal protein. I'm not a vegetarian, but soy protien just seems to work better for me. I've never understood the whole thing about not eating animals...you'd think they'd be poisenous if we weren't supposed to eat them. Maybe they are! Damn public schooling, lying to me about the food groups!

This would be a good moment to get to work. =)

PS - Music on right now - my "driving" CD that I never burned - Cat Power, Rufus Wainwright, REM, The Strokes, They Might Be Giants, Jars of Clay (imagine that!), Madonna (I like everything but the "Bedtime Stories", "Erotica" period - maybe I'm repressed or something), Solex, and Sixpence None The Richer
