It's Really Here

So, I finally got my copy of Withstanding the Lie. Yay! Although I've been kind of busy lately (with working overtime, apartment hunting, and preparing to sing at my hometown church this Sunday), I have been trying to read the book cover to cover to get the full experience of the whole thing. I've spent most of my time reading the book on the subway which I have to mention is kinda cool (haha, you know reading your own book on the train). But honestly, it's pretty good travel reading--it moves quickly. And thank goodness for that because we worked really hard on making sure the book flows and doesn't cause readers to get "bogged down" in heavy explanations. So what I'm saying is buy the book and read it while using public transportation (planes, trains, buses, subways and the like). It's a good read for commuters.



Now that I'm finished with the shameless self-promotion portion of this blog...



Like I mentioned above I'm going back to my hometown for the weekend. I miss my parents and grandmother. It feels like it's been awhile since I've been home even though it's barely been over a month. I'm also excited about going to church and having the opportunity to sing. Lately, singing has been really important to my "sanity." It keeps me grounded and focused. It helps alleviate the stress. Even though I'll be singing and talking shop with my father about WTL, this might be a bit of a mini-mini-mini vacation. I might have a few moments to just breathe. Or maybe not.



Anyway, right now I'm coming down with a bit of a cold, and I'm feeling pretty "icky." In an effort to take care of myself, I'm going to dedicate the rest of this evening to eating a good hardy meal and watching a few episodes of my favorite show EVER "Star Trek: The Next Generation." [Yes, I'm a nerd, but I'm not ashamed.]
