... The taste that's so much more.
Seriously. I'm ready to throw my computer off a bridge somewhere. Or at least get cable internet access. This keeps booting me offline. Frustrating? Nah, not at all.
I could have gone to a BBQ tonight at Laura's house. More specifically, Mike's house. Since Laura's not there, after all. The youth kids are doing a crash there tonight--with the promise of another huge waterfight--but I decided to be an old lady party pooper and hang out at home instead.
Hmm. I really want to find a set of the Chronicles of Narnia on ebay. That's the next thing I'm looking for. I just bought three more of Madeleine L'Engle's books--that puts me at a grand total of--dun, dun,dun--9 of her books. That would be such a dream gift for me... a complete library of her books. I have her most popular ones, though (the Time quartet), and a lot of the others are harder to find. I'll keep looking, though, and I know I'll get most, if not all, of them over time.
It's hard to believe that I was on the road, post-19-hour-drive, a year ago. Sometimes, it feels so far away, and so different from that. Life is in such a different place than it was then. And then I think ahead a year, and realize that I could very well be in the middle of Testament 2004. Who knows how different it'll be then... the same trip with a different group can be a very different thing. I wonder how that trip will change the lives of the people on it. How they'll come back different. Who it'll be. How their relationships will change. I mean, it changed me so much last year and was such an answer to prayer, and I can't imagine it not being that for the people who go next year.
One year ago today: There are so many things to say, though. So many different experiences, so few words, so little time to actually wrote about them. When I get back, and get pictures and stuff, I'll have to do a massively huge entry about everything. Until then, I'll try to write as many of the memories and the moments that I possibly can.
